|
There's a shiver in the air |
|
It's all too clear |
|
It's a lament for all the world |
|
No-one wants to hear |
|
Behind unshakeable faith in god |
|
In isolation |
|
Safe behind the barricades |
|
They call it homeland. |
|
White arrogance |
|
The only yardstick |
|
White arrogance |
|
All men are equal |
|
But the whites are somehow better. |
|
And in the camps they cry with rage |
|
The white yoke cuts deep |
|
And we just watch in on TV |
|
What can we do? |
|
We see the truncheons, the black blood |
|
The silent cries |
|
They live their lives down in the mud |
|
We, too, are to blame. |
|
White arrogance |
|
The only yardstick |
|
White arrogance |
|
All men are equal |
|
But the whites are somehow better. |
|
Too cowardly to do a thing |
|
Too cowardly to boycott |
|
Too cowardly to do a thing |
|
Too cowardly to boycott |
|
Holding men in contempt |
|
Shipping men like cattle |
|
Holding men in contempt |
|
Shipping men like cattle. |
|
With brown eyes and black hair |
|
It's difficult life |
|
Here as much as there |
|
There are different shades of white |
|
We see the slogans on the walls |
|
Cash changing hands |
|
Be good to all your fellow men |
|
Who gives a damn? |
|
White arrogance |
|
The only yardstick |
|
White arrogance |
|
All men are equal |
|
But the whites are somehow better. |
