With Friends Like These Songtext
von Stereolab

All this violence is puzzling
Maybe the law should intervene
All this violence is threatening
Hate is in need of censoring

Ban hate and violence for
Our convenience
Ban hate and violence for
Our convenience

All this violence is puzzling
Maybe the law should intervene
All this violence is threatening
Hate is in need of censoring

Ban hate and violence for
Our convenience
Ban hate and violence for
Our convenience


Don′t we all know the dangers
Of two conflicting viewpoints?
An active troublemaker
Banning the flame of dissent
So much aggravation!

To all haters
We'll create some laws to stop you
You′re the danger
You really shouldn't be allowed to

They piss on morality!
They detest humanity!
Those savages should be banned!
They're so deeply offensive!
Somebody shut them up!

War can′t help it
They′ll still be full of hate and shit
But it's handy
We′ll blame it on human nature

They piss on morality
They detest humanity
Those savages should be banned
They're so deeply offensive
Somebody shut them up


We′ll censor the hell out of you
We'll coerce evil out of you
We′ll cut your tongue if we have to
You're the baddies and we hate you

We'll censor the hell out of you
We′ll coerce evil out of you
We′ll cut your tongue if we have to
You're the baddies and we hate you
