Well your mama is ugly
And your daddy is too
And you belong
To the chosen few
A Jew
A stray
Or maybe just black
Love to be hated
Love to be axed

Went to church on Sunday
Sat on the front pew
Learned all the great teachings
Like a good boy do

We all bleed red
Let's see it eye to eye
We all bleed red
There's got to be a compromise
I don't live like you
You don't live like me
But living it together
Is the way it's gotta be
We all bleed red
That's you and me

Say live it like this
No live it like that
We got too many answers
Way too few facts
But society's pointing
And they don't know why
I guess they like to see
The innocent cry

Went to church on Sunday
Sat on the front pew
Learned all the great teachings
Like good boys do

We all bleed red
Let's see it eye to eye
We all bleed red
There's got to be a compromise
I don't live like you
You don't live like me
But living it together
Is the way it's gotta be
We all bleed red
That's you and me

Build your fancy pretty
Way up to the sky
Cast away the shadows
That nail scar your eye
Chain and strap my beauty
Make sores that won't mend
Then talk about how Jesus
Wants to wash away my sins

Went to church on Sunday
Sat on the front pew
Learned all the great teachings
Like good boys do

We all bleed red
Let's see it eye to eye
We all bleed red
There's got to be a compromise
I don't live like you
You don't live like me
But living it together
Is the way it's gotta be
We all bleed red
That's you and me
