Statues built for bastards
Monuments to thieves
Who carved the name of the white man
On the backs of the trees that hung black bodies

Like ornaments
Like ornaments

Monuments to thieves
Monuments to thieves

Erections for your heros:
The liars and the thieves
Who hung the name of the white man
On the signs of our streets

Like ornaments
Like ornaments

Monuments to thieves
