Skin head, dead head

Everybody gone bad

Situation, aggravation

Everybody allegation

In the suite, on the news

Everybody dog food

Bang bang, shot 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, kike 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 bein' the victim of hate

You're rapin' me of my pride

Oh, for God's sake

I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...

Set me free



Skin head, dead head

Everybody gone bad

trepidation, speculation

Everybody allegation

In the suite, on the news

Everybody dog food

black man, black mail

Throw your 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 because you ignore me?

Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now

I'm tired of bein' 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 do really hate to say it

The government don't wanna see

But if Roosevelt was livin'

He wouldn't let this be, no, no



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



Some things in life they just don't wanna see

But if Martin Luther was livin'

He wouldn't let this be



Skin head, dead head

Everybody gone bad

Situation, segregation

Everybody allegation

In the suite, on the news

Everybody dog food

Kick me, strike me

Don't you wrong or right 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



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



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
