In a sea of white faces | |
I heard the latest version of | |
The Clash. | |
Still no ticket for the races, | |
And the sisters still get the shaft. | |
We got a punk rock problem | |
I'm tired of playing shirts and skins here. | |
How do we sing against the system | |
When we're a main offender? | |
Put it in a blender and let me get the hang | |
Of how it fits together | |
And how we came to be. | |
I'm a child | |
Of the M to | |
M Program. | |
Bus em out to the suburbs, | |
But we never got to know em. | |
I had a sex education | |
Without a word for my gender | |
All these half-hearted tries- | |
Put em in a blender. | |
Let me get the hang of | |
How we can fit together | |
And still keep our identity. | |
Now the kids are hip hip hopping, | |
And everybody's co-opting. | |
The straight girls are slumming it | |
At The Suicide | |
Queers' gig. | |
Yeah, we're all assimilatin', | |
But we're still segregated. | |
And its all for the market man, | |
He says ”Put em in a blender and | |
See where the money lands.” | |
Put em in a blender and let them get the hang | |
Of thinking that they've been here |
