get outta my face

All you whiny bastards who can't get a clue
Well, I've got something to say to you
You're too lazy to work, you want me to pay your bills
While spend all your money on booze and cheap thrills
Then come crying to me when your ass ends up broke
If you think I'm a bank, you should watch what you smoke
get off of your ass, and get back in your place
but first and foremost, get outta my face

Now, I don't give a damn about the color of skin
but you think it makes you special, I think that's a sin
you act like I owe you something 'cause I'm white
you think that makes you better, I don't think it's right
you blame me for something my ancestors did
do you think yours were better? who are you trying to kid?
So I don't want to hear any bullshit about my race
so take your bigot attitude, and get outta my face

To you religious zealots, this I have to say
You wanna change the world? go back to church and pray
or open up a soup kitchen, and feed the hungry poor
but don't come knocking on my front door
I'm not going to convert, I like the faith I've got
so don't try to tell me that you're something that you're not
you've got your Bible, I've got a can of mace
we'll see who's faith is stronger if you don't get outta my face

    More than the humour, I like the anger in this poem.
    I don't think the flow is great, but the rhyming scheme is good - still, it was a very enjoyable read.
    Well done my Egyptian friend.
    Robin.

    A little dark humor is good for the soul. I've had a few funny rants in my time and probably will again.

    I needed something to make me smile. It's nice to know your not alone

    you see where I am coming from. I had to fight for 2 years to get disability beacuse of my bad knee, but all these "minorities" seem to get welfare at the drop of a hat, just for being minorites.

    well, ive had moochy neighbors, Minorities calling me racist because I i think white people should get the same treatment they feel entitled to, and Mormons trying to get me to join their church, so this is for all of them

    I couldn't agree more, I hate when people ask for handouts and complain about the 'white man' putting everyone down. I think the USA has to favor the black and spanish these days, they would get sued if they didn't. Think about, how many scholarships do see white kids getting just for being white? How about loans, financal aid, free education? None. White people are the ones being discriminated against now, even though 1 out of 6 people in the USA are now spanish... Hell, I say send all the illegal imagrants back to where ever they came from. I'd rather their childern not get a good education, they have a bad job, and they have bad houses then me. American jobs go to the imagrants before Americans? Thats BS...
    I couldn't agree with this poem more.. I think white people need to stop being so affraid of being called a racist and just say whats on their mind. The tables have turned a bit, but it wasn't this generations fault.
    Maybe I am a little racist, but I don't care about a person's skin untill it starts to effect me. And by that I mean, my kids getting into college and having to pay more for school because some black kid got a free ride because his parents laid a guilt trip on the American society. And so many of us wonder why tution is raising?

    Really a good rant.

    Whoa it sounds like someone pushed you too far, and hey Mace does backfire if you spray it against the wind. I understand the sentiment here but when a stranger comes to my door and I do have no trepassing sign they are not met with Mace. My dog is the one to ignore but I am not. No I do not feel that I owe anything to anyone that I don't owe myself but this is a good rant. I like rants.
