Nofx - Don't Call Me White lyrics

rate me

Don't call me white (x4)<br>The connotations wearing my nerves thin<br>Could it be semantics generating the mess we're in? <br>I understand that language breeds stereotype<br>But what's the explanation for the malice, for the spite? <br>Don't call me white (x4)<br>I wasn't brought here, I was born<br>Circumsized, categorized, allegiance sworn<br>Does this mean I have to take such shit<br>For being fairskinned? no!<br>I ain't a part of no conspiracy, I'm just you're average joe<br>Don't call me white (x4)<br>Represents everything I hate<br>The soap shoved in the mouth to cleanse the mind<br>The vast majority of sheep<br>A buttoned collar, starched and bleached<br>Constricting veins, the blood flow to the brain slows<br>They're so fuckin' ordinary white<br>Don't call me white (x4)
