lyrics

On saturday they play their game,
get special buses, special trains
The rest of us must all make way,
here we go here we go again

The Mob mentality’s what reigns
The streets on saturday ain’t safe
It’s the hate game!
(Do you want to be a hero,
No-one else sees you that way
Do you want to be a martyr for a stupid game)

You think it makes you such a man
to hold a weapon in your hand
To mutilate somebody’s face
and put your country in disgrace

And so they implement a ban
That makes you one real stupid man
At the hate game!
(Do you want to be a hero,
No-one else sees you that way
Do you want to be a martyr for a stupid game)

This male togetherness is strange
and it’s no longer just a game
This misplaced loyalty and pride
is no excuse for homicide

But you won’t have your way for long
The rest of us won’t sing your song
At the hate game!
(Do you want to be a hero,
No-one else sees you that way
Do you want to be a martyr for a stupid game)
