PEDDLER
©1995 Rich & Flo Newman (BMI) (Chorus) If you are a peddler of prejudice If you are a hawker of hate Smash the face in the mirror and pack it in Your life on this plane's a disgusting, ridiculous waste When problems come up you're fast placing the blame On class, color, neighbor's who else? Your rationale reeks - it's completely inane Why don't you stop, look the hell at yourself You're seeing, speak, thinking in stereotypes Everyone is perceived as a threat Instead of seeing the value in each person's life Your opinion's already been set Sure it's hard work to try to figure things out So much easier to hate and shout names I passed some angels hanging out and they were shaking their heads "He took a wrong turn somewhere - isn't that a shame" If you are a peddler... You poison the minds of your children With sick ideas and your rage-infused rants Now they think that there's room for only their kind You've got them stuck in your zombie-like trance You boast about how you had to learn to make do That your burdens were so hard to bear The way real poverty feels, you don't have a clue You've never been treated with loathing and fear While everybody's searching for their place in this life You're out cruising for some burgers and fries You lobby for respect by putting other people down You're spreading misconceptions and slanderous lies If you are a peddler... This whole place needs a tune-up real bad You waste time and you clog up the works Whose ignorance gave you a deputy's badge You don't give a damn that you cause so much hurt Throughout history every group has had its turn At being persecuted - kicked to the ground It's Incredible that people like you never learn You keep the cyclones of hatred circling round and round If you are a peddler... |
