BLAME IT ON THE BLACK MAN
He killed his wife, and shot himself
Now he wants to blame it on someone else
Blame it on the Black man
She took her kids to the edge of town
Put the car in drive and in the lake they drowned
Blame it on the Black man
He tracked Trayvon Martin just seventeen years old
Shot this kid in the heart, same old story is told
Blame it on the Blackman (or Black child in this case)
There’s a racial sickness going around this land
Look how fast people believed these lies
Open up your mind and understand
You can’t use us as a racist alibi
They shot an unarmed Black man at point blank range
Forty one bullets, and they say he’s to blame
Blame it on the Black man
On video tape you saw one thing
The ku kops klan beating Rodney King
Blame it on the Black man
Crime is rampant across the land
We need an excuse, you know the plan
Blame it on the Black man
There’s a racial virus eating up this land
Look how fast people believed these lies
Open up your mind and understand
We will not let justice be denied
Cops body-slammed and punched a handcuffed black kid
Choked him too is what you did
Blame it on the Black man (or Black child AGAIN)
Five grown white cops say he was stronger than you
And though your treachery was in clear view
Hocus pocus - blame it on the Black man
No matter what is going wrong
Doesn’t matter whose fault
We hear the lying song
Blame it on the Black man
There’s a sickness going around this land
Look how fast people believed these lies
Open up your mind and understand
This is racial madness not in disguise
You perpetrate terror until you get caught
And when you're busted you say it's not your fault
Just blame it on the Black man
Global warming is hurting the planet
Acid rain and smog we just can’t stand it
Blame it on the Black man
Yeah right, blame it on the Black man
We all expect it, but it’s a brand new day
And your lies are being rejected
Blame it on the Black man
Yeah we hear you
But the real problem
Is the person you see in the mirror
Try to blame it on the Black man
But now you must take note
No longer will we be your
+_)(*&^%$#@!^ scapegoat
