Bonnie Prince Billy – Southside Of The World lyrics
Where were the rapists when I was a child ?
(Southside of the world)
They were my neighbours, that's why I'm so wild
(Southside of the world)
Where were the drunkards that shot with their guns ?
(Ah)
And closed the shops early so we could have fun ?
(Ah)

Where were the women who spread the disease ?
(Southside of the world)
Who spread love so freely and so spread their knees ?
(Southside of the world)
They went to the southside to make their own laws
(Southside of the world)
Away from the knowing of innocent jaws
(Southside of the world)

Lord, they went to the southside and we must go too
(Southside of the world)
If we want our freedom, it's what we must do
(Southside of the world)
If we want happy families, it's what we must do
(Southside of the world)

Give me donkey ears!
Give me honkey tears!
Give me black blood!
And that of queers!
To mix with my own

Come with me to the southside where we'll make our home
(Southside of the world)
Come with me to the southside where we'll make our home
(Southside of the world)

(Southside of the world)
(Southside of the world)
