So you've been to school for a year or two

And you know you've seen it all
   Am7         Am                    
In daddy's car thinking you'll go far
Am                             
Back east your type don't crawl
G                        D                
Playing ethnicky jazz to parade your snazz
        G         D     
On your fivegrand stereo
G                              D                
Braggin' that you know how the niggers feel cold
        G                 D   
And the slums got so much soul
             C                   Am   D
It's time to taste what you most fear 
      C                       Am  
Right Guard will not help you here

Don't forget to pack a wife

[Verse]
A7          Am                                     
  You're a starbelly sneetch you suck like a leech
         Am7                  Am  Am7
You want everyone to act like you   
                            Am              
Kiss ass while you bitch so you can get rich
         Am                      
But your boss gets richer off you
G                              D               
Well you'll work harder with a gun in your back
      G              D  
For a bowl of rice a day
G                  D              
Slave for soldiers 'til you starve
          G                     D    
Then your head is skewered on a stake
            C                   Am    
Now you can go where people are   one
D           C             G   C      Am  
Now you can go where they get things done
