O'Connor, Hazel - Blackman lyrics

I am the black man and you are the white

I am the deviant and you're always right

I am the darkness and you are the light

I am the black man, you're the white

Yeah I go, I'll be good living only if I'm dying, hide your head in your hand

You hear no, see no, speak no no no, don't understand

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic beast in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

I am the dirty and you are the clean

I live in places where you've never been

I eat the garbage and you eat the cream

I am the dirty, you're the clean

You kick me in the bus, get away of me and have been to me

You hit me, kick me, tell me I am the grey Shirley

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic beast in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

I am the white man and I paint you black

I am the traitor, but I put you on the whack

I am the coward and I shoot you in the back

I am the white man, I paint you black

Yeah, I am the good living only if I'm dying, hide my head in my hand

I hear no, see no, speak no no no, don't understand

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic beast in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

I am the blackness, I am the dark

I am the alcoholic beast in the park

I am the girl who sold her body to the dark

I am the truth of it, you are the hypocrite

Blackman!
