Let's Face It

Mighty Mighty Bosstones

It's so hard to face



That in this day and age



Somebody's race



Could trigger somebody's rage



And somebody's preference



Can drive some total stranger



to make somebody, somehow



feel the wrath of their anger



Why were we put here?



What for? we're unsure



We sure weren't put here to hate



Be racist, be sexist



Be bigots, be sure



We won't stand for your hate



Why so cut and dry



A simple concept missed



Give tolerance a try



This confusion still exists ignorant mongers



No area's gray



Couldn't be any wronger in this age and day



Why were we put here?



What for? we're unsure



We sure weren't put here to hate



Be racist, be sexist



Be bigots, be sure



We won't stand for your hate



Now how far have we come?



How come there still are come



Who won't let come



March to the beat of a different drum



To face it, it's so hard



you must be on your guard



It's not okay



And you're not free to be a different way



Let's try to erase it, it's time that we face it



If we don't, then who will? shame on us



Let's try to erase it, it's time that we face it



Let's face it, the time is upon us
