Block This, Block That
Block this, block that
Black this, black that
I am sick and tired
Of seeing the hatred
And the obvious prejudices
Destroying countries, counties
Districts and municipalities
Where biased authorities
And utterly corrupt and ornery judges
Rule like lions in the wild jungles.
Black this, black that
Block this, block that
Where nobody wins
And everybody loses
From venomous doses
Of ignorance and intolerance
We are all fraternal twins
With different level of shade and nuance
Oh! Nobody is perfect
And I am daringly correct
Like the angel snoring on the deck.
I have never seen a black country
I have never lived in a black county
Unfortunately nonsense prevails
And common sense is assailed
Oh! I will spare you the details
So you won’t faint, fade, fall and fail
As you lurk, search, muse and chase your tail
Black this, black that
Block this, block that.
