Your words boom like thunder, they echo in my ear
I'll take no more, to bigotry I won't concur
Don’t bring your hate and prejudice here
You’ll find no place for it here, it's not welcome anywhere
So raise your sights, come out of your shell
Unless you want to get a taste of this living hell
Be ready and be brave, if you will chance it
Your views will get you nowhere, you’ll be no one’s tenant
Racism and bigotry just won't abide
And if you still don’t think, you’ll take a one-way ride
So heed the warning, steer clear of your mouth
Leave bigoted views behind, or else they'll all find out
Here on this ground, there’s no room at the inn
For those who cling to their old ways, no need to spin
So be brave and open-minded, or else hit the bricks
Your old views won’t get you anywhere, I won’t turn a blind eye to your tricks.
