I'm living in a funny neighbourhood

The blackies and the whities try to get along

But here comes Johnny with divide and rule

He's always fucking up



But what do we do we go and vote them in

We give them power to destroy our lives for good

We never give ourselves to chance to be

Always looking up

Skunk Anansie



Skunk, skunk, skunk, skunk

Skunk, skunk, skunk, skunk

Skunk Anansie



And the police we give them so much power

We're givin' 'em guns, we're givin' 'em lives to blow away

And they protect us with their winning smiles

It's time to fuck them up



And how-do-we-do-that, how do we keep control

The first thing we must do is vote them out for good

Kick all the corrupt insatiable fuckers out

It's time for cooking up

Skunk Anansie
