Don't Call Me White Lyrics - Rancid

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

 

The connotations wearing my nerves thin 

Could it be semantics generating the mess we're in? 

I understand that language breeds stereotype 

But what's the explanation for the malice, for the spite? 

 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

 

I wasn't brought here, I was born 

Circumcised, categorized, allegiance sworn, 

Does this mean I have to take such shit 

For being fairskinned? No! 

I ain't a part of no conspiracy, 

I'm just you're average Joe. 

 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

 

Represents everything I hate, 

The soap shoved in the mouth to cleanse the mind 

The vast majority of sheep 

A buttoned collar, starched and bleached 

Constricting veins, the blood flow to the brain slows 

They're so fuckin' ordinary white 

 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

 

We're better off this way 

Say what you're gonna say 

So go ahead and label me 

An asshole cause I can 

Accept responsibility, for what I've done 

But not for who I am 

 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

Don't call me white, don't call me white 

Don't call me white, don't call me white
