Youth Against Facism (Rehearsal Recording)
Sonic Youth · Dirty - Deluxe Edition [2003]
Another stomach turns
Yeh your ghetto burns
It's the song I hate
You got a stupid man
You got a ku klux clan
Your funky battleplan
It's the song I hate
A sieg heil-ing sqirt
You're an impotent jerk
Yeah a fascist twerp
It's the song I hate
Black robe and swill
I believe Anita Hill
That judge will rot in hell
It's the song I hate
Yeah a cross on fire
By a christian liar
A lack attack at fire
It's the song I hate
The presdent sucks
He's a war pig fuck
His shit is out of luck
It's the song I hate
Another nazi attack
A skinheadis cracked
My blood is black
It's the song I hate
We're banging pots and pans
To make you understand
We gotta bury you man
It's the song I hate
I'm a human wreck
A redneck in check
I killed the teacher's pet
It's the song I hate
