Lyrics for Society Is a Hole

Society is a hole It makes me lie to my friends It's running down my street With white powers sneakers On the beautiful beat of black feet Society is a hole It beats my friends big heads My friends have big heads I can understand it But I don't recommend it You got big big hair And everybody is scared Society is a hole It makes me lie to my friends The assault of holy noise There's a slap in my face My friends are girls wrapped in boys We're living in pieces I want to live in peace Society is a hole
