n*ggers Are Scared Of Revolution lyrics
by The Last Poets
[Intro]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
But n*ggers shouldn't be scared of revolution
Because revolution is nothing but change
And all n*ggers do is change
[Verse 1]
n*ggers come in from work and change into pimping clothes
And hit the streets to make some quick change
n*ggers change their hair from black to red to blond
And hope like hell their looks will change
n*gga kill other n*ggers just because one didn't receive the correct change
n*ggers change from men to women, from women to men
n*ggers change, change, change
You hear n*ggers say, "Things are changing? Things are changing?"
Yeah, things are changing
n*ggers change into "Black" n*gga things
"Black" n*gga things that go through all kinds of changes
The change in the day that makes them rant and rave "Black Power, Black Power!"
And the change that comes over them at night
As they sigh and moan, "White thighs, ooh, white thighs"
n*ggers always goin' through bullsh*t change
But when it comes for real change
[Refrain]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
[Verse 2]
n*ggers are actors, n*ggers are actors
n*ggers act like they are in a hurry
To catch the first act of the "Great White Hope"
n*ggers try to act like Malcolm
And when the white man doesn't react toward them like he did Malcolm
n*ggers want to act violently
n*ggers act so cool and slick, causing white people to say
"What makes you n*ggers act like that?"
n*ggers act like you ain't never seen nobody act before
But when it comes to acting out revolution
n*ggers say, "I can't dig them actions!"
[Refrain]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
[Verse 3]
n*ggers are very untogether people
n*ggers talk about getting high and riding around in L's
n*ggers should get high and ride to hell
n*ggers talk about pimping
Pimping that, pimping what? Pimping yours, pimping mine
Just to be pimping is a helluva line
n*ggers are very untogether people
n*ggers talk about the mind, talk about
"My mind is stronger than yours," "I got that b*tch's mind uptight!"
n*ggers don't know a damn thing about the mind, or they'd be right
[Refrain]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
[Verse 4]
n*ggers f*ck, n*ggers f*ck, f*ck, f*ck
n*ggers love the word f*ck
They think it's so f*ckin' cute, they f*ck you around
The first thing they say when they're mad is, "f*ck it!"
You play a little too much with them, they say "f*ck you"
When it's time to TCB
n*ggers are somewhere f*cking
Try to be nice to them, they f*ck over you
n*ggers don't realize while they doin' all this f*cking
They're getting f*cked around
And when they do realize it's too late
So n*ggers just get f*cked up
n*ggers talk about f*cking
f*ckin' that, f*ckin' this, f*ckin' yours, f*ckin' my sis
Not knowing what they're f*cking for
They ain't f*cking for love and appreciation
Just f*cking to be f*cking
n*ggers f*ck White thighs, Black thighs
Yellow thighs, Brown thighs
n*ggers f*ck ankles when they run out of thighs
n*ggers f*ck Sally, Linda, and Sue
And if you don't watch out, n*ggers will f*ck you!
n*ggers would f*ck "f*ck" if it could be f*cked
But when it comes to f*cking for revolutionary causes
n*ggers say, "f*ck revolution!"
[Refrain]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
[Verse 5]
n*ggers are players, n*ggers are players, are players
n*ggers play football, baseball and basketball
While the white man is cuttin' off their balls
When the n*gga's play ain't tight enough
To play with some black thighs
n*ggers play with white thighs
To see if they still have some play left
And when there ain't no white thighs to play with
n*ggers play with themselves
n*ggers tell you they're ready to be liberated
But when you say "Let's go take our liberation"
n*ggers reply, "I was just playin'!"
n*ggers are playing with revolution and losing
[Refrain]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
[Verse 6]
n*ggers do a lot of shootin', n*ggers do a lot of shootin'
n*ggers shoot off at the mouth
n*ggers shoot pool, n*ggers shoot craps
n*ggers cut around the corners and shoot down the street
n*ggers shoot sharp glances at White women
n*ggers shoot dope into their arm
n*ggers shoot guns and rifles on New Year's Eve
A new year that is coming in
Where white police will do more shooting at them
Where are n*ggers when the revolution needs some shots?
Yeah, you know, n*ggers are somewhere shootin' the sh*t
[Refrain]
n*ggers are scared of revolution
[Verse 7]
n*ggers are lovers, n*ggers are lovers are lovers
n*ggers love to see Clark Gable make love to Marilyn Monroe
n*ggers love to see Tarzan f*ck all the natives
n*ggers love to hear the Lone Ranger yell, "High ho, Silver!"
n*ggers love commercials, n*ggers love commercials
Oh how n*ggers love commercials
"You can take n*ggers out of the country, but
You can't take the country out of n*ggers"
n*ggers are lovers, are lovers, are lovers
n*ggers loved to hear Malcolm rap, but they didn't love Malcolm
n*ggers love everything but themselves
But I'm a lover too, yes I'm a lover too
I love n*ggers, I love n*ggers, I love n*ggers
Because n*ggers are me, and I should only love that which is me
I love to see n*ggers go through changes, love to see n*ggers act
Love to see n*ggers make them plays and shoot the sh*t
But there is one thing about n*ggers I do not love
n*ggers are scared of revolution
