White

Like a ghost in daylight

operatin' on a crowded street

always in danger

somehow invisible for the heat

I don't wanna be white no more

I don't wanna be white

I don't wanna be white no more

I don't wanna be white

Workin' the subway

like a dog eatin' his own flees

workin' the hole

passin' by like a cool breeze

I don't wanna be white no more

I don't wanna be white

I don't wanna be white no more

I don't wanna be white

By the time he finds out

bout a Jones on his back

like a ball and chain

suckin' the blood from his neck

junksick stare

in his pale blue eyes

he could sing the blues

like a motherless child

I don't wanna be white no more

I don't wanna be white

I don't wanna be white no more

I don't wanna be white

I wanna be blue
