[00:00.000] 作词 : Scott-Heron [00:00.175] Poem here says, Comment No.1 [00:03.715] Uh, Comment No.2 is dynamite [00:06.816] But Comment No.1 is the one we decided [00:09.938] To use here this evening [00:11.568] Because it makes a comment if you listen [00:14.469] Closely on what is now being advertised [00:18.652] In East Harlem as the "Rainbow Conspiracy" - a combination of [00:23.136] The Students For A Democratic Society [00:25.304] The Black Panthers, and the Young Lords [00:27.279] And this is my particular comment about that conspiracy, "Comment No.1": [00:47.332] The time is in the street you know [00:50.073] Us living as we do upside down [00:53.451] And the new word to have is revolution [00:56.385] People don't even want to hear the preacher spill or spiel [01:01.475] Because God's hole card has been thoroughly piqued [01:04.797] And America is now blood and tears instead of milk and honey [01:09.718] The youngsters who were programmed [01:11.490] To continue ******* up woke up one night [01:13.982] Digging Paul Revere and Nat Turner as the good guys. America stripped [01:19.517] For bed and we had not all yet closed our eyes. The signs of Truth [01:23.732] Were tattooed across our often-entered vagina [01:26.750] We learned to our amazement untold tale of scandal [01:30.804] Two long centuries buried in the musty vault [01:33.883] Hosed down daily with a gagging perfume [01:36.550] America was a bastard the illegitimate daughter [01:40.171] Of the mother country whose legs [01:41.719] Were then spread around the world [01:43.527] And a rapist known as freedom: free doom [01:47.094] Democracy, liberty, and justice were [01:50.565] Revolutionary code names that preceded [01:53.281] The bubbling bubbling bubbling bubbling bubbling in the mother country's ****** [01:57.620] And behold a baby girl was born [02:00.440] Nurtured by slave holders and whitey racists [02:03.071] It grew and grew and grew screwing [02:06.786] Indiscri****tely like mother, like daughter [02:10.042] Everything unplagued by her madame mother [02:12.967] The present mocks us, good Black people [02:16.550] With keen memories set fire to the bastards [02:19.321] Who ask us in a whisper to melt and integrate [02:22.775] Young, very young, teeny [02:25.491] Bopping revolt on weekend young dig [02:27.492] By proxy what a mental ass kicking [02:29.800] They receive through institutionalized everything [02:32.422] And vomit up slogans to stay out of Vietnam [02:35.573] They seek to hide their relationship with the world's ********** [02:39.524] Alienating themselves from everything [02:41.751] Except dirt and money with long hair, grime, and **** [02:46.098] To camo-hide the things that cannot be hidden [02:49.241] They become runaway children to walk the streets downtown with everyday [02:53.294] Black people sitting on the curb [02:55.127] Crying because we know that they will go back [02:57.385] Home with a clear conscience and a college degree [03:00.122] The irony of it all, of course [03:01.869] Is when a pale face SDS ************ dares [03:04.896] Look hurt when I tell him to go find his own revolution [03:09.057] He wonders why I tell him that America's revolution [03:12.284] Will not be the melting pot but the toilet bowl [03:14.920] He is fighting for legalized smoke, or lower voting age [03:18.541] Less lip from his generation gap and ******* in the street [03:22.121] Where is my parallel to that? [03:24.273] All I want is a good home and a wife and a children [03:27.634] And some food to feed them every night [03:29.782] Back goes pale face to basics [03:32.271] Does Little Orphan Annie have a natural? [03:34.489] Do Sluggo's kinks make him a refugee from Mandingo? [03:37.595] What does Webster's say about soul? [03:39.560] I say you silly chipe ************, your great grandfather [03:44.225] Tied a ball and chain to my ***** [03:46.416] And bounced me through a cotton field [03:48.169] While I lived in an unflushable toilet bowl [03:50.287] And now you want me to help you overthrow what? [03:52.556] The only Truth that can be delivered to a four year [03:55.363] Revolutionary with a whole card i.e. skin is this: [04:00.109] **** up what you can in the name of [04:02.232] Piggy Wallace, ****less Nixon, and Spiro Agnew [04:06.349] Leave brother Cleaver and Brother Malcolm alone please [04:09.777] After all is said and done build a new route to China if they'll have you [04:14.270] Who will survive in America? Who will survive in America? [04:17.650] Who will survive in America? Who will survive in America?
