Black Skinhead (Original Remix)

[Intro: Curt Smith & Roland Orzabal]

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

[Verse 1]

For my theme song (Black)

My leather black jeans on (Black)

My by-any-means on

Pardon, I'm getting my scream on (Black)

Enter the kingdom (Black)

But watch who you bring home

They see a black man with a white woman

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

At the top floor they gone come to kill King Kong

Middle America packed in (Black)

Came to see me in my black skin (Black)

Number one question they're askin'

Fuck every question you askin' (Black)

If I don't get ran out by Catholics (Black)

Here come some conservativе Baptists

Claiming I'm overreactin'

Like thеm black kids in Chiraq, bitch

[Chorus: Kanye West, Curt Smith & Roland Orzabal]

Four in the mornin', and I'm zonin'

(Acting on your best behaviour)

They say I'm possessed, it's an omen

I keep it 300, like the Romans

(Turn your back on Mother Nature)

Three hundred bitches, where the Trojans?

Baby, we livin' in the moment

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

I've been a menace for the longest

But I ain't finished, I'm devoted

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

And you know it, and you know it

[Post-Chorus: Kanye West, Curt Smith & Roland Orzabal]

So follow me up 'cause this shit 'bout to go (Down)

I'm doing 500, I'm outta control (Now)

But there's nowhere to go (Now)

And there's no way to slow (Down)

If I knew what I knew in the past

I would've been blacked out on your ass

(Everybody, everybody, everybody, wants to rule the-)

[Chorus: Kanye West, Curt Smith & Roland Orzabal]

Four in the mornin', and I'm zonin'

(Acting on your best behaviour)

They say I'm possessed, it's an omen

I keep it 300, like the Romans

(Turn your back on Mother Nature)

Three hundred bitches, where the Trojans?

Baby, we livin' in the moment

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

I've been a menace for the longest

But I ain't finished, I'm devoted

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

And you know it, and you know it

[Verse 2]

Stop all that coon shit (Black)

Early morning cartoon shit (Black)

This is that goon shit

Fuck up your whole afternoon shit

I'm aware I'm a wolf

Soon as the moon hit

I'm aware I'm a king

Back out the tomb, bitch (Black)

Black out the room, bitch (Black)

Stop all that coon shit (Black)

These niggas ain't doin' shit (Black)

Them niggas ain't doin' shit

Come on, homie, what happened?

You niggas ain't breathin', you gaspin'

These niggas ain't ready for action

Ready, ready for action-action

[Chorus: Kanye West, Curt Smith & Roland Orzabal]

Four in the mornin', and I'm zonin'

(Acting on your best behaviour)

I think I'm possessed, it's an omen

I keep it 300, like the Romans

(Turn your back on Mother Nature)

Three hundred bitches, where the Trojans?

Baby, we livin' in the moment

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

I've been a menace for the longest

But I ain't finished, I'm devoted

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

And you know it, and you know it

[Post-Chorus]

So follow me up 'cause this shit 'bout to go (Down)

I'm doing 500, I'm outta control (Now)

But there's nowhere to go (Now)

And there's no way to slow (Down)

If I knew what I knew in the past

I would've been blacked out on your ass

[Outro: Kanye West, Curt Smith & Roland Orzabal]

(Acting on your best behaviour)

(Turn your back on Mother Nature)

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

(Everybody wants to rule the-)

God, God, God, God

God, God, God, God

God, God, God
