Throw Your Hatred Down (Album Version)

Throw Your Hatred Down - Neil Young

Here in the conscious world

We place our theories down

Why man must bring us

To our knees

Before he sees the weakness

Of his sinful plan

The power in his hand

Will never touch a friend

Throw your hatred down

Throw your hatred down

Meanwhile in the underworld

The weaknesses are seen

By peasants and presidents

Who plan the counter-scheme

Children in the schoolyard

Finish choosing teams

Divided by their dreams

While a TV screams

Throw your weapons down

Throw your weapons down

The wheel of fortune

Keeps on rollin' down

The street that's paved

With sinful plans

There but for circumstance

May go you or I

Dressed in gold lame

Find a place to stay

Throw your hatred down

Throw your hatred down

Throw your hatred down

Throw your weapons down
