Certain people
Never learn
You get from life
What you earn
Nero fiddled
While Rome burned
Today it seems like
It’s his  turn

Some live to
Incite a riot
Hatred is part
Of their diet
Let them try
They can’t deny it
And if they did
Who would buy it

Hate mongers
Invite others
Mostly those
Without their druthers
At any rate
They hate brothers
Usually labeled
As those others

Some live to
Incite a riot
Hatred is part
Of their diet
Let them try
They can’t deny it
And if they did
Who would buy it

Certain people
Have no shame
Hope I don’t have to
Name a name
To him everybody
Is fair game
Though he doesn’t want to
Take the blame

Y’all know who
I’m talkin’ ‘bout
It ain’t that hard
To figure out
But just in case
There’s any doubt
He’s always
The odd man out
