Minor Threat : In My Eyes
Lyrics
1. In My Eyes
You tell me you like the taste
You just need an excuse
You tell me it calms your nerves
You just think it looks cool
You tell me you want to be different
You just change for the same
You tell me it's only natural
You just need the proof
Did you fucking get it?
IT'S IN MY EYES
AND IT DOESN'T LOOK THAT WAY TO ME
IN MY EYES
You tell me that nothing matters
You're just fucking scared
You tell me that I'm better
You just hate yourself
You tell me that you like her
You just wish you did
You tell me that I make no difference
At least I'm fuckin' trying
What the fuck have you done?
IT'S IN MY EYES
AND IT DOESN'T LOOK THAT WAY TO ME
IN MY EYES
2. Out of Step (With the World)
(I) Don't smoke
Don't drink
Don't fuck
At least I can fucking think
I can't keep up,
Can't keep up
Can't keep up
Out of step with the world
3. Guilty of Being White
I'm sorry
For something I didn't do
Lynched somebody
But I don't know who
You blame me for slavery
A hundred years before I was born
GUILTY OF BEING WHITE
I'm a convict
Of a racist crime
I've only served
19 years of my time
GUILTY OF BEING WHITE
4. Steppin' Stone
I'm not your stepping stone
I'm not your stepping stone
You're trying to make your mark in society
Using all the tricks that you used on me
You're reading all those high fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearin' girl are causing public scenes
I said
I'm not your stepping stone
I'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
When I first met you girl you didn't have no shoes
Now you're walking 'round like you're front page news
You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose
But you won't find my name in your book of who's who
I said
I'm not your stepping stone
I'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
