Well I'm white like you
But it doesn't mean what I wanna
do is denigrate people of colour
And I'm straight like you
But it doesn't mean what I wanna
do is judge people just for being themselves
And we're both men
But it doesn't mean that then
I wanna hear your thoughts about women in power
And we're the same age
But it doesn't mean I wanna hear you
Reminiscing all about the good old days
When men were men
And women were women
And whistling at the skirts
Would get your boys swimmin'
And they might owe you something
If you hold open doors
When women knew their place
But man I gotta tell ya
Someone really oughta to put you back in yours

I don't need to be your target to be offended by your claim
I don't need to be in your line of sight to be angered by your aim
And just because I look like you
Doesn't mean what I want to do is
Pick up a bow and arrow and
Join in your stupid game

Background noise

We're the background boys
Making background noise

White noise
Straight talkin'
Toxic masculinity

We're not gonna bond over what you think of women
We're not gonna bond over homophobia
We're not gonna bond over melanin deficiency
We're not gonna bond over ideology

We are not gonna bond over religion
We are not gonna bond over politics
We are not gonna bond over derision
We are not gonna bond just cos we both have dicks ["dicks" removed from clean version]

What we have in common is not other people's differences

I hope I don't ever see the world in the way you do
I hope no one ever sees in me the things I see in you

Yeah I'm white like you
But it doesn't mean what I wanna
Do is judge people based on where they were born
Or where their parents were born
Or where their great great great great great grandparents were born
Yeah I know you probably don't accept that it's true
But your ancestors are from Africa too
And we're both men
But it doesn't mean that then
I wanna split rights into his and hers
And we're the same age
But it doesn't mean I wanna hear you
Reminiscing all about the good old days
When men were men
And women were women
And there's a different box you put
Her or him in
And I don't want to join you in the
Boys club
Don't make assumptions
About our common ground
Over a friendly drink when we're down at the pub

I don't need to be your target to be offended by your claim
I don't need to be in your line of sight to be angered by your aim
And just because I look like you
Doesn't mean what I want to do is
Pick up a bow and arrow and
