Dance Blackman Dance!

Dance Blackmen Dance!
     They screamed and yelled

Dance Blackmen Dance!
      Or quickly will you see hell

If you don't act like you know
       and put on a show
Then you have sealed your fate
        and to hell you go
You will dance how I'll make you
         Talk how I want you too
         Do as I make you do
With no backtalking and extra lip
          For I am the master of this ship
You are my puppet and I am your master
           I am your father and you are my bastard
I'll make you understand
       Lil boy I'm a man
If you don't cooperate I'll cut off both of your hands
        Then you legs so you can't stand

Dance Blackman Dance!
         You blackmen act as if you're bigger than life
          You blackmen act as if you're worth more than white
           You blackmen act as if you can do anything right
            You blackmen can't read nor write

Don't get mad at me for what I say
            God only listens to white when they pray
            I'll teach you 2day 
            White supremency all the way

Now Dance Blackmen Dance!
            I see you want to do things your way
            I'll make sure you obey
            My show will go on with or without blacks
            Because there is no show with no monkies to act
            So I will continue to sell these lies as facts
             To help keep these blackmen unfocus and off track
              And to keep one less whiteman off my back
You fail to realize
               I'm only black on the outside
               But these eyes of mine only only see white
               So even if its wrong I see it right
               So even if it's dark I see it light

Now Dance Blackmen Dance!
