I'm living in a funny neighbourhood
  The blackies and the whities try to get along
  But here comes Johnny with divide and rule
  He's always fucking up
    But what do we do we go and vote them in
  We give them power to destroy our lives for good
  We never give ourselves to chance to be
  Always looking up
  Skunk Anansie
    Skunk, skunk, skunk, skunk
  Skunk, skunk, skunk, skunk
  Skunk Anansie
    And the police we give them so much power
  We're givin' 'em guns, we're givin' 'em lives to blow away
  And they protect us with their winning smiles
  It's time to fuck them up
    And how-do-we-do-that, how do we keep control
  The first thing we must do is vote them out for good
  Kick all the corrupt insatiable fuckers out
  It's time for cooking up
  Skunk Anansie
