LABELS 


Call me punk cos i wear a leather jacket 
Call me a hippie cos i believe in love and peace 
Call me an idealist cos of songs like this one 
You can call me what you like i am all and none of these 

 Fix a label on me to keep illusions happy 
 Fix a label on me does it make you feel secure? 
 Fix a label on me to keep me at a distance 
 And i'll label you as ignorant not wanting to know more 

Before we understand ourselves do we have to fight each other? 
Before we share opinions must we keep them undercover? 
We classify and categorize to keep ourselves divided 
We are all individuals not the images provided 

 Fix a label on me to keep illusions happy 
 Fix a label on me does it make you feel secure? 
 Fix a label on me to keep me at a distance 
 And i'll label you as ignorant not wanting to know more 

Labels are a subtle way of keeping us in line 
Divided by conformity we waste away our time 
We are all individuals divided by their rituals 
Think again like i have done--throw away the labels! 

 Fix a label on me to keep illusions happy 
 Fix a label on me does it make you feel secure? 
 Fix a label on me to keep me at a distance 
 And i'll label you as ignorant not wanting to know more
