We're All Going Home in an Ambulance Songtext
von Reuben

At school the choices I made
Were rock and roll bands
And getting good grades.

But brains and wearing all black
To some of these guys
It′s like a red flag.

The taste of anyone's fist
Is not a good vibe, or something I′ve missed.
I was intimidated, assaulted, and for what?
I hope they choke...

Shrugged off the shit in my youth
Like growing up pains or losing a tooth
But it's not a matter of age
They're everywhere
These people don′t change


When I was in New York
A woman tried to start a fight with me
Because she thought I was Jewish
And somehow it felt wrong to tell her I wasn′t
And I pray to God she chokes...

You're going home in a fucking ambulance...

I once saw a man
With blood on his face
From beating up black kids
And I could hardly breathe

Your race, your faith
Or just your clothes incite
They drink and they fight
It′s not safe out tonight

Your race, your faith
Or just your clothes incite
They drink and they fight
So don't go out tonight, don′t!

If your mum and dad
Hit you as a child
I feel sad for you
But that's no excuse for it


Who says it′s okay
To behave in this way?
I can't help but feel it's us
For the sake of our own skin
We walk away, and it′s like we all say
"That′s alright, it's alright, it′s alright..."

I wish I had the guts
To stand up for myself
And for the others as well
Against these fuckers

Choke...
