Lyrics for Sold Short

[Mitch Harris, Embury / Greenway] Red's the given color if you resist the will to hate You're a bit part Outliving your worth Where do you stand in the Aryan pecking order? We are "faggots", "Jews" and traitors Because we resist the will to hate. Here's supremacy: To rise above paranoia Is is others who're diseased for dismissing your flawed criteria? You've been sold short to a scam Survival of the fittest? How you seem expendable, vulnerable - a runt Better keep your mouth shut Should they find the quirks in your pureblood You've been sold short to a scam You can pin all slurs to me But I'll choose humanity You're a bit part Outliving your worth Where do you stand in your preciou pecking order? You've been sold short to a scam
