Slow Bus Movin'

Born in the 1940's, my parents couldn't vote X and king was on a march for power true Black power that is, panther's and their attitudes Were fresh new business suits, yes, yeah, yeah Stricken with determination to rise above the slave The mayo men used firehoses To spray the monkeys back in their cages To spray the monkeys back in their cages Round and around and around they go The bus is goin' mighty slow Brothers in the back seat come to the front People gettin' hostile wanna kill someone Well the overlords thought it would be a good idea To mix the black with the white But if you're a fly in the buttermilk they'll chase you all through the night So go ahead and burn your cross and rape our women in the night 'Cause the tables are turned When your cream coated daughter will be my wife Round and around and around they go The bus is goin' mighty slow Brothers in the back seat come to the front People gettin' hostile wanna kill someone
