Inner White Girl - Jaquel Spivey/L Morgan Lee.mp3

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Michael R. Jackson
[00:09.195]USHER: On days his blackness feels like another hurdle
[00:13.049]That won't get out of his way
[00:17.114]His inner white girl starts kicking like a baby
[00:21.152]She wants to come out and play
[00:25.102]She doesn't care if she ruffles any feathers
[00:29.185]In fact, that is her M.O
[00:33.122]Where he's the king of avoiding confrontation
[00:37.106]There's not a bomb she won't throw
[00:40.117]Because
[00:41.283]White girls can do anything, can't they?
[00:45.104]Black boys must always obey their mothers
[00:49.108]White girls can do anything, can't they?
[00:52.735]Can't they?
[00:53.657]Can't they?
[00:54.713]Can't they?
[00:57.070]Some days he feels like his Blackness (is you) is a treasurе (Is you)
[01:01.221]That's under constant attack
[01:02.985](H-h-h-h-h-h-hey)
[01:05.079]His inner whitе girl protects (is you) it from marauders (is you)
[01:08.994]She always takes up the slack
[01:11.039](H-h-h-h-h-h-hey)
[01:12.930]She lets him feel like a human supernova
[01:17.048]Like he could conquer the Earth
[01:21.118]Like he's the heir to the power and oppression
[01:25.081]Her kind have wielded since birth
[01:28.271]Because
[01:29.128]USHER & CAST: White girls can do anything, can't they?
[01:32.997]Black boys must always obey their mothers
[01:37.155]White girls can do anything, can't they?
[01:40.622]Can't they?
[01:41.532]Can't they?
[01:42.621]Can't they?
[01:43.644]USHER: They get to be cool, tall, vulnerable, and luscious
[01:47.474]They get to be wild and unwise
[01:51.555]They get to be shy and introspective
[01:55.410]They get to make noise
[01:57.178]They get to mesmerize
[01:59.085]Black boys don't get be cool, tall, vulnerable, and luscious
[02:03.577]Don't get to be wild and unwise
[02:07.589]Don't get to be shy and introspective
[02:11.421]Don't get to make noise
[02:13.236]Don't get to fantasize
[02:23.032]His Blackness doesn't look blue in any moonlight
[02:27.101]Which makes him harder to see
[02:31.076]That's why he clings to his silly inner white girl
[02:35.085]The same one clinging to me
[02:37.498]We wanna be free
[02:39.623]We wanna belong
[02:41.565]We wanna unearned love or validation
[02:45.059]But neither come easily
[02:47.488]So her siren song
[02:49.538]Keeps us in total subjugation
[02:52.622]Total subjugation!
[02:53.751]We want to be cool, tall, vulnerable and luscious (White girls can do anything, can't they?)
[02:57.570]We want to be wild and unwise (Black boys must always obey their mothers)
[03:01.617]We want to be shy and introspective (White girls can do anything, can't they?)
[03:05.577]We want to make noise, we wanna mesmerize (Can't they, can't they, can't they?)
[03:09.651]Why can't we be cool, tall, vulnerable and luscious? (White girls can do anything, can't they?)
[03:13.641]Why can't we express in our own way? (Can't they, can't they, can't they?)
[03:17.536]Why can't we unleash what's locked inside us?
[03:21.550]Who made up these rules that black boys have to obey?
