Chords in this song5

Verse 1

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shock dead
Everybody's gone mad

Hook

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 

Verse 2

Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Do me, Sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, strike me
Don't you black or white me

Hook

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 

Bridge 1

Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now 
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride
Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...
Set me free

Verse 3

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
trepidation, speculation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
black man, black mail
Throw your brother in jail

Hook

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Verse 4

Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now 
I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can't believe this is the land from which I came 
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't wanna see
But if Roosevelt was livin'
He wouldn't let this be, no, no
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, speculation
Everybody litigation
Beat me, bash me
You can never trash me
Hit me, kick me
You can never get me

Hook

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 
Some things in life they just don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin'
He wouldn't let this be
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Kick me, strike me
Don't you wrong or right me
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Hook

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us 
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
