“Heathens”

(altered, with apologies to the bard) (humor)

All my friends are heathens, take it slow

Wait for them to ask you who you know

Please don’t make any sudden moves

You don’t know the half of the abuse

Welcome to the clan of people

Who have clans of people that they loved one day

Docked away

Just because we check the guns at the door

Doesn’t mean our brains will change from hand grenades

You’re loving on the warrior sitting next to you

You’re loving on the pagan sitting next to you

You’ll think, “How’d I get here, sitting next to you?”

But after all I’ve said, please don’t forget

All my friends are heathens, take it slow

Wait for them to ask you who you know

Please don’t make any sudden moves

You don’t know the half of the abuse

We don’t deal with outsiders very well

They say newcomers have a certain smell

You have trust issues, not to mention

They say they can smell your intentions

You’re loving on the warrior sitting next to you

You’ll have some pagan sitting next to you

You’ll think “How did I get here, sitting next to you?”

But after all I’ve said, please don’t forget

All my friends are heathens, take it slow

Wait for them to ask you who you know

Please don’t make any sudden moves

You don’t know the half of the abuse

Why’d you come? You knew you should have stayed

I tried to warn you just to stay away

And now they’re outside ready to bust

It looks like you might be one of us
