Take the Blue Pill
1.
(Whispered; snapping percussion done by dry firing real guns)
Rock it
Shock it (2xs)
Glock it
Put your heart in a cage and lock it.
2.
Just another fine day
In the USA
Gotta hit the street
See who I meet
And play the Hate Game
Play the Hate Game
Play the Hate Game
- It's always the same -
This is how we are
This is what we do
This is how it is when it's me against you.
We play the Hate Game.
I hate how you walk
You hate how I talk
I hate what you say
You hate what I do
You hate me and I hate you - Play the Hate Game!
Take the Blue Pill
Take the Blue Pill
Take the Blue Pill
Yeah, take the Blue Pill
2nd Part: All of Part 2 above recited again, but with Part 1 and the Blue Pill
lines recited in counterpoint simultaneously.

WHAT'S THE ANSWER?
- It's a gun, yeah, yeah
It's a gun yeah Baby
Yeah yeah Baby it's a gun
Yeah yeah
It's a gun.

(Lyrical counterpoint continues)
Beautiful day in the neighborhood
Beautiful day for a neighbor -
WOULD you be mine?
COULD you be mine?
Better be sure
When you come to the door
And you ring the bell
It's not a gate to Hell
If you hear a loud click
Better turn around quick
Better run boy
Better run boy
Somebody's playin' the Hate Game
This is how we are
This is what we do
This is what it means
When it's me against you
We play the Hate Game
5.
(Lyrical counterpoint continues)
Welcome to the land
Where Freedom always rings
To the sound of shots all day
It's just the American Way
Just one of those things
The way Freedom rings
Lets us make our stand
So we can play the Hate Game
Play the Hate Game
WHAT'S THE ANSWER?
It's a gun, yeah, yeah
It's a gun yeah Baby
Yeah yeah Baby it's a gun
Yeah yeah
It's a gun
It's a gun
It's a gun.
- Silence -
1 Click
Whole Crew: BANG!
1 Real shot
- Silence -
Lead Singer, quietly:
Yeah Baby...
