Lyrics

[Verse] Dark eyes and brown skin Swear I was your flavour You say this is love I say this is not a game You got scared of my culture Did my family scare you off? Was the curry too hot? I know I'm "not like the other girls, run away" But it is coming from you or your parents [Chorus] Dated a racist "You can't bring that dark girl home" 'Cause Mama's waiting to see to see the next Generation that follows Can't say you hate it, just ignorant You just need to grow a pair To raise what they wish Raise what they wish we had aborted [Verse] You should've gone ahead and said it! You should've called it! You should've called it! But daddy did not wanna raise no loser He made you bail out! He made you bail out! You should've saved yourself the headache I should've seen you and your depth Now go and stand in the shallow depths Of your white-picket-fence rules Now go have fun with that [Chorus] Dated a racist "You can't bring that dark girl home" 'Cause Daddy's waiting to see to see the next Generation that follows Can't say you hate it, just ignorant You just need to grow a pair To raise what they wish Raise what they wish we had aborted [Bridge] It's a shame you're a razor blade There's a clear divide here This how society stays Still stuck in rigid ways It's a shame, It's a shame you're a razor blade Keeping us, keeping us divided Divided, this is how your family's staying Stuck in rigid ways [Chorus] Dated a racist "You can't bring that dark girl home" 'Cause Daddy's waiting to see to see the next Generation that follows Can't say you hate it, you need to speak up You just need to grow a pair To raise what they wish Raise what they wish we had aborted Raise what Dad wish we had aborted Raise what Mum wish we had aborted Raise what they wish we had aborted
