We Don't Need No Colour Code Songtext

von Steve Taylor

Down in Carolina Way
Lived a man name o' Big BJ
BJ went and got a school
Founded on Caucasian rule
Bumper sticker on his Ford
Says, 'Honkies if you love the Lord'

We don't need no color code
We don't need no color code
Take your rules and hit the road
We don't need no color code
Judgment Day is goin' down
Better burn your cap and gown

White man speak with forked tongue
White supremist eat their young
Bigotry is on the loose
Ignorance is no excuse
I know Jesus loves that man
Even with a Greenville tan

We don't need no color code
We don't need no color code
Take your rules and hit the road
We don't need no color code
Judgment Day is goin' down
Better burn your cap and gown

Marching to Pretoria
Marching to Pretoria
Color codes in churches, huh?
Color codes in churches, huh?
Following a fascist creed
Following a what?

Whose translation do you read?
True believers won't be snowed
True believers won't be snowed
We don't need no color code
We don't need no color code

We don't need no color code
We don't need no color code
Take your rules and hit the road
We don't need no color code
Judgment Day is goin' down

We don't need no color code
We don't need no color code
Take your rules and hit the road
We don't need no color code
We ain't playin' dead this time
This is where we draw the line
