Your Racist Friend Lyrics - They Might Be Giants

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here listening to you 

and your racist friend 

i know politics bore you 

but i feel like a hypocrite talking to you 

and your racist friend 

It was the loveliest party that i've ever attended 

if anything was broken i'm sure it could be mended 

my head can't tolerate this bobbing and pretending 

listen to some bullet-head and the madness that he's saying 

This is where the party ends 

i'll just sit here wondering how you 

can stand by your racist friend 

i know politics bore you 

but i feel like a hypocrite talking to you 

you and your racist friend 

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here listening to you 

and your racist friend 

i know politics bore you 

but i feel like a hypocrite talking to you 

and your racist friend 

Out from the kitchen to the bedroom to the hallway 

your friend apologizes, he could see it my way 

he let the contents of the bottle do the thinking 

can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding 

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here listening to you 

and your racist friend 

i know politics bore you 

but i feel like a hypocrite talking to you 

and your racist friend 

Notes 

most alternate versions are very similar. the farthest removed is the "extended mix" dial-a-song version: 

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here wondering how you 

can stand by your racist friend 

this is where the party ends 

i can't stand here wondering how you 

can stand by your racist friend 

It was the loveliest party 

that i've ever attended 

if anything got broken 

i'm sure it could be mended 

but my head can't stand this bobbin' and pretendin' 

tolerate some bullethead and the bullshit that he's sayin' 

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here listening to your 

your racist friend 

this is where the party ends 

i'll just sit here wondering how you 

can stand by your racist friend 

It was the loveliest party 

that i've ever attended 

if anything got broken 

i'm sure it could be mended 

my head can't stand this bobbin', sittin' and pretendin' 

tolerate some bullethead and the bullshit that he's sayin' 

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here listening to your 

your racist friend 

this is where the party ends 

i'll just sit here wondering how you 

can stand by your racist friend 

This is where the party ends 

i can't stand here listening to your 

your racist friend 

this is where the party ends 

i'll just sit here wondering how you 

can stand by your racist friend 

This is where the party ends 

this is where the party ends 

this is
