מילים לשיר The Handshake – Bad Religion

every time you shake someone's hand and it feels like your best friend,
could it be that it's only superficiality?,
without regard to well handshakes are nothing but a subtle 'fuck you',
contracts determine the best friendships this is the way of the modern world, everyone's vying for patronage,
this is the way of the modern world, and something has gotta give every time you shake someone's hand,
and you share neither color or creed,
you gotta overcome the obstacles of history,
there is restrained passion, mistrust, and bigotry and these have created the new foundations of society,
there's no harmony just class and race this is the way of the modern world,
everyone's fighting for dominance,
this is the way of the modern world,
and something has gotta give now I believe in unity, and I am willing to compromise,
but I'm not gonna lie or sell my soul every time you shake someone's hand,
it determines where you stand,
and if you won't uphold your side then it's better to
fend for yourself, and shun the handshake,
someone's gotta give.
