lyrics

Oh daughter, daughter, daughter
won’t you listen to your father
not all are who they seem to be
what they are hiding up their sleeve
it really is a nasty world
for every boy and girl
nothing to fear but fear itself
said the old man, begs for help
that same man, that same day
took a walk down to the bay
with one last shout for all mankind
gave one shot to blow his mind

if all we are is innocent
then why can we not quit
mutilate our kind
in every child’s mind
rainbows turn to drag shows
but do not speak of these or those
who come to bear this nasty world
is it such a nasty world?

Oh brother, brother, brother
did you ever hear your mother
tell you what is and what is not
what you can think without a thought
you think you are what you are not
is it me or is it you who has been bought
they’ll teach you daily just how you should behave
shove it down your throat to obey and not be brave
with on last shout for all mankind
give one shot to show your mind

if all we are is innocent
then why can we not quit
mutilate our kind
in every child’s mind
rainbows turn to drag shows
but do not speak of these or those
who come to bear this nasty world
is it such a nasty world?
Such a very nasty world
