lyrics

Sitting sippin' agua fresca a la pastèque
What d'you mean, I'm ignorant about other cultures?
Really, what's the difference between French and Spanish?
It's not my fault I learnt languages from M&S food packets

"D'ya hear the one about cultural appropriation?
D'ya hear the one about white privilege?"
Run on back to your little echo chamber
Where there are a million other voices that are just like yours screaming:

"Shame that you weren't born white!"
"Shame 'bout that shoot-on-sight!"
Shame you think there's "good people" on both sides
(Shame you don't know better)

Shame your island's name's Hispanic and it's left in tatters
Shame you make it partisan like lost lives don't matter
Shame you didn't help when no-one else could
Shame about your neighbourhood

Gold lift, gold star, gold face
If you got ill, how'd we know you lost your taste?
So many U-turns, you must have got blisters
Can you imagine working for these truth-twisters?

Shame things you don't like are just pie in the sky
Shame we'll have to see, Proud Boys stand by
Shame it''s getting stormy - everybody, testify!
$130,000 say these hips don't lie

Shame a nightclub can become a war zone
Shame kids can go to school but they don't come home
Shame you've only platitudes with a thousand mile stare
"Thoughts And Prayers"

Crooked news and deep fakes and
No healthcare? - well, let them eat cake, yeah?
Kids in cages - give me a f**king break!
$750 'cos we're always on the take

But it's cool (It's cool)
I really don't care do u? (Do you?)
I really don't care do u? (Do you?)
I really don't care do u?

...well, actually, I do

Whatcha gonna do when the wall comes down?
Whatcha gonna do when the law comes back for you?
Who're you gonna be, for the many or the few?
Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?

Whatcha gonna do when the wall comes down?
Whatcha gonna do when the law comes back for you?
Who're you gonna be, for the many or the few?
Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?

"Shame that you weren't born white!"
"Shame 'bout that shoot-on-sight!"
Shame you think there's "good people" on both sides
(Shame you don't know better)

Shame a nightclub can become a war zone
Shame kids can go to school but they don't come home
Shame you didn't help when no-one else could
Shame about your neighbourhood
