Like a ghost in daylight
Operatin' on a crowded street
Always in danger
Somehow invisible for the heat

I don't wanna be white no more
I don't wanna be white
I don't wanna be white no more
I don't wanna be white

Workin' the subway
Like a dog eatin' his own flees
Workin' the hole
Passin' by like a cool breeze

I don't wanna be white no more
I don't wanna be white
I don't wanna be white no more
I don't wanna be white

By the time he finds out
Bout a Jones on his back
Like a ball and chain
Suckin' the blood from his neck
Junksick stare
In his pale blue eyes
He could sing the blues
Like a motherless child

I don't wanna be white no more
I don't wanna be white
I don't wanna be white no more
I don't wanna be white

I wanna be blue
