The Offspring Keep 'Em Seperated lyrics

Like the latest fashion, like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin' on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons with the greatest of ease
The gangs stake their own campus locale

And if they catch you slippin'
Then it's all over, pal
If one guy's colors and the other's don't mix
They're gonna bash it up

Hey man, you talkin' back to me? Take him out
You gotta keep 'em separated
Hey man, you disrespecting? Take him out
You gotta keep 'em separated


Hey, they don't pay no mind
If you're under 18, you won't be doing any time
Hey, come out and play
By the time you hear the siren, it's already too late

One goes to the morgue and the other to jail
One guy's wasted and the other's a waste
It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one's getting smarter, no one's learning the score

Your never ending spree of death and violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope
