Stereotype Reinforced

Joke I will bomb you,
Offend my faith, god and I
I threaten you with death?

Am I what joke says?
Offend my faith, god and I
I threaten you with death?

I am not this way,
Offend my faith, god and I,
I threaten you with death?

I want peace and love
Offend my faith, god and I,
I threaten you with death?

I want free speech rights,
Offend my faith, god and I,
I threaten you with death?

Tolerance I preach
Offend my faith, god and I,
I threaten you with death?

Joke I will bomb you,
Offend my faith, god and I,
Prepare for the bomb.
