[Verse 1]
I swear that someday
I'll tell you without lying
I was born to quit smoking
I was born to quit dying
On that day
Not doing heroin will be easy as piss
And on that day
I'll stop talkin' so much shit about the government

[Chorus]
'Cause urine speaks louder than words
On a politician
Or on a prison warden
Urine speaks louder than words

[Verse 2]
I swear that today
I was born to be livin'
I was born to be singin'
I was born to be fightin'
But will somebody say
Is this resistance or a costume party
Either way I think black with bandanas is a boring theme

[Verse 3]
I don't gotta tell you
Crackers are great with amnesia
When they wanna forget something like
Centuries of racism
They say, "Look at the man on center stage
And pay no attention"
While millions get locked in a cage
Riots break out in Oakland
[Chorus]
But urine speaks louder than words
On a prison warden
Or on a BART Policeman
Urine speaks louder than words
