Bigot’s Barrel

[Verse 1]
He was spoken to just to be put down
And he was twenty-two when helped off the ground
Was beaten black and blue when his color was brown
And shining shoes in a dirty town

[Chorus]
The bigots barely outnumber my regrets
As I float around like shit in the Bay
The bigot's barrel's just another white male melee

[Verse 2]
He's free to choose but his choices are few
The rope is loose but it's tied in a noose
He prays to God in the back of the church pews
They won't pass the plate to the blacks or the Jews

[Chorus]
The bigots barely outnumber my regrets
As I float around like shit in the Bay
The bigot's barrel's just another white male melee

[Verse 3]
She's feeling free until he gets a free feel
A reeling plea in machismo battlefield
"I'm up to my neck in the rawest of raw deals
While I'm choking on the B.C. pill"

[Chorus]
The bigots barely outnumber my regrets
As I float around like shit in the Bay
The bigot's barrel's just another white male melee
And it's just another fucking windy day

[Excerpt from Martin Luther King, Jr. speech]

[Outro]
"I know the rules to know that they're confused and wrong
I'd read my rights it wouldn't take too long
I'll take an inch, no more is offered to a pawn
I wasn't asked, I will respond!"
