To Be Racist
[Intro (spoken)]
People who specialise and like to brutalise people with different colour skin and eyes should be hospitalised!
They are mentally disturbed!

[Intro]
To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

[Verse 1]
Oh, what a shame
Oh, what a pity
Racist activity
All over the city

Oh, what a shame
Oh, what a pity
Racist mentality
All over the city
Yes, they're very sick, very sick indeed
Sicken all the men with the racist disease
Straitjackets and backpacks: that's what we need
Put them in an asylum, one you can't leave

To meet every race, every colour and creed
Everything dem a-hear about Blacks dem believe
They don't realise they are getting deceived
They caught it very sick, very sick indeed

[Chorus]
To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

[Verse 2]
Oh, what a shame
Oh, what a pity
Racist activities
All over the city
Lord, what a shame
Lord, what a pity
Racist mentality
All over the city

If you are a racist you should be ashame
Leave us alone and stop complain
All of your problems you're givin' us the blame
But your biggest problem is in your own brain

Sick inna your head, totally insane
Who you tink you are? You think you're John Wayne?
Well, this is not the West and neither again
And what used to happen cannot happen again

If you a bad bull then mi are di bullfighter
If you are Rambo then we are Terminator
You think you're rough, then we are the sandpaper
If you are duppy, we are the Ghostbuster

[Chorus]
To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this
To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

[Bridge]
So, you're the BNP
So, you're the Ku Klux Klan
So, you're a Nazi, ha ha
You think you're a Dan
So, you're a white, right-wing South African
What makes you think you're better than another man or woman?

Now, the BNP, they've got a plan
To kick all the Black people out of England
To them it is the only solution
To make England into a better nation
But what about the other side of the situation
All the English who livin' in another man's land?

To be fair, all those generations
Would have to come back to England
All the English who say they're American
Would have to come back to England
All the English who say they're Australian
Would have to come back to England
All the English who say they're African
Would have to come back to England
All the English in the Caribbean
Would have to come back to England
With so much people in England, stop and think
England would sink!

[Chorus]
To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

[Verse 3]
Everybody have a little bit of prejudice
Blow up those prejudice that make a racist
And the racist have put it in a practice
'Cause them disturbed, full of bad madness
They have mouth so they can talk as them wish
But the violence thing that a' foolishness

A long, long time slavery was abolish and
We nah bow down [?] the shoes we polish
So, all good people listen to this
Let us unite against the racists

If a march, then we have to march 'gainst it
And if a vote, then we have to vote 'gainst it
And if a fight, then we have to fight 'gainst it
Fi what? Rid society of the sickness

[Chorus]
To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

To be racist
Is an illness
It's like madness
We must cure this

[Outro (spoken)]
Threatening children outside of school is out of order!
Not in the rules
Stamp out racism
Now!
