Hate Comes To Town

from Songs of the Night by Michael Hanisch

/

lyrics

kids are lined up on the sidewalk
and the marching band does play
happy people all in rapture
and there is no sign

of the darkness that is coming
of the hellhounds in tow
of the bloodthirsty fellas

that are there to make the rounds again
that are there to change your life
that are there to bring the pain
on the day when the hate comes to town


hide your friendly homosexuals
cause their life is on the line
hide your neighbouring transsexuals
cause there ain't no time

no time for rational discussion
no time for making any friends
no time for soothing the anxiety

and there ain't no way to the paradise
and there ain't no way for you to realize
and there ain't no way to be free
on the day when the hate comes to town


to the ones who join the witch hunt
who like to hassle all the fags
who point their fingers at the wrong ones
you are dark inside

you would cry like a baby
if your life was on the line
and nobody there to help you

when the wolves are on your tail again
marching girls and marching males again
and the breeze of hell in your neck
on the day when the hate comes to town
