These ideas are nightmares for white parents Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings Like whatever they say has no bearing It's so scary in a house that allows no swearing To see him walkin' around wit his headphones blaring Alone in his own zone cold and he don't care He's a problem child what bothers him all comes out When he talks about his ******' dad walkin' out 'Cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out 'Cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out But if he ever saw him again he'd prolly knock him out His thoughts are whacked he's mad so he's talkin' back Talkin' black brainwashed from rock and rap He sags his pants dew-rags and a stockin' cap His stepfather hit him so he socked him back And broke his nose this house is a broken home There's no control he just lets his emotions go- C`mon! Sing with me （Sing!） sing for the year （Sing It!） Sing for the laughter sing for the tear （C`mon!） Sing it with me just for today Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
