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 theire 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`er gonna bash it up
Hey - man you talkin` back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep`em separated
Hey - man you disrespecting me?
take him out
You gotta keep`em separeted
Hey they don`t pay no mind
If you`re under 18 you won`t be doing any time
He come out and play
By the time you hear the sirenIt`s already to 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
Wour never ending spreeof death and violence and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope
