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, I'm the good little holier than thou, hide my head in my hand
I hear no, see no, speak no, no, no, no understand

Well, I am the blackness, I am the dark
I am the alcoholic beast in a 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 third degree for being different to thee
You hit me, you kick me, you tell me [Incomprehensible] I should be

Well, I am the blackness, I am the dark
I am the alcoholic beast in a 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 white man, I paint you black
I am the traitor but I put you on the whack
I am the coward, I shoot you in the back
I am the white man, I paint you black

Yeah, I'm the good little holier than thou, hide my head in my hand
I hear no, see no, speak no, no, no, no understand

Well, I am the blackness, I am the dark
I am the alcoholic beast in a park
I am the girl who sold her body to the dark
I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

Say I am the blackness, I am the dark
I am the alcoholic beast in a park
I am the girl who sold her body to the dark
I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite
