They Don’t Care About Us

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Skinhead, dead head, everybody gone bad Situation, aggravation, everybody, allegation In the suit, on the news, everybody, dog food Bang bang, shot dead, everybody's gone mad [Refrain] All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us [Verse 2] Beat me, hate me, you can never break me Will me, thrill me, you can never kill me Jew me, sue me, evеrybody do me Kick me, kick me, don't you black or whitе me [Refrain] All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us [Bridge] Tell me, what has become of my life? I have a wife and two children who love me I am the victim of police brutality, no, no I'm tired of being the victim of hate You're raping me of my pride, oh, for God's sake I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy, set me free [Verse 3] Skinhead, dead head, everybody gone bad Trepidation, speculation, everybody, allegation In the suit, on the news, everybody, dog food Black man, blackmail, throw the brother in jail [Refrain] All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us [Bridge] Tell me, what has become of my rights? Am I invisible because you ignore me? Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now I'm tired of being the victim of shame They're throwing me in a class with a bad name I can't believe this is the land from which I came You know, I really hate to say it The government don't wanna see But if Roosevelt was living He wouldn't let this be, no, no [Verse 4] Skinhead, dead head, everybody gone bad Situation, speculation, everybody, litigation Beat me, bash me, you can never trash me Hit me, kick me, you can never get me [Refrain] All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Some things in life They just don't wanna see But if Martin Luther was living He wouldn't let this be, no, no [Verse 5] Skinhead, dead head, everybody gone bad Situation, segregation, everybody, allegation In the suit, on the news, everybody, dog food Kick me, kick me, don't you wrong or right me [Refrain] All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us (You see me in the fire) All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us (Don't you know what I'm feeling?) [Outro] All I wanna say is that they don't really care about— All I wanna say is that they don't really care about— All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us
