They Don't Care About Us

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody, allegation

In the suit, on the news
Everybody, dog food
Bang bang, shock dead
Everybody's gone mad

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

Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me

Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kick me
Don't you black or white me

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

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, now

I'm tired of being the victim of hate
Your ripping me of my pride
Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill it's prophecy
Set me free

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Trepidation, speculation
Everybody, allegation

In the suit, on the news
Everybody, dog food
Black man, black mail
Throw the brother in jail

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

Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible 'cause 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 do hate to say it
The government don't wanna see
But if Roosevelt was living
He wouldn't let this be, now

Skin head, 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

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

Somethings in life they just don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was living
He wouldn't let this be, no, no

Skin head, dead head
Everybody's gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody, allegation

In the suit, on the news
Everybody, dog food
Kick me, kike me
Don't you wrong or right me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
(We're deep in the fire)

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
(I'm here to remind you)

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
(Don't you set up see focus debated?)
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
