Hazel O'Connor - Blackman lyrics

rate me

I am the blackman and you are the white

I am the deviant and you're always right

I am the darkness and you are the light

I am the blackman, you're the white

Yeah you are the good little holier

Than thou, hide your head in your hand

You hear no, see no, speak no no no no

Understand

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic pissed in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

I am the dirty and you are the clean

I live in places where you've never been

I eat the garbage and you eat the cream

I am the dirty, you're the clean

You give me the first degree for being different to thee

You hit me, kick me, tell me you're what I should be

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic pissed in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

I am the whiteman and I paint you black

I am the traitor, but I put you on the rack

I am the coward and I shoot you in the back

I am the white man, I paint you black

Yeah I am are the good little holier

Than thou hide my head in my hands

I hear no, see no, speak no no no no

Understand

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic pissed in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic pissed in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

Blackman!
