The Skin |
She’s a fat girl |
You could never love that girl |
You and all your skinny friends makin' jokes at her expense |
Cracks about her backside, its resemblance to an elephant’s |
Does it feel good to tear her down? |
Take her, make her less than human |
She’s heard every word and |
She can’t help the skin she’s in |
He’s a black boy |
You wouldn’t want to be that boy |
He’s a jive talkin', ghetto dwellin', streetcorner crack sellin' |
Welfare cheatin', pickaninny eatin' watermelon |
Does it feel good to tear him down? |
Take him, make him less than human |
He’s heard every word and |
He can’t help the skin he’s in |
We are the ugly, the weak and the wrong |
Trapped in your world where you won’t let us belong |
When you cut me with your eyes |
You know I die a million times |
I’m still alive |
You’re lovely |
But deep inside I know you’re ugly |
Though your face displays the promise of a Venus or Adonis |
Still your fragile bleeding ego takes its pain out on the rest of us |
And it feels good to tear you down |
Sue me, I’m only human |
That only makes it worse, 'cause |
You can’t help the skin you’re in |
