They Dont Care About Us

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

You can never kill me
Do me, Sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, strike me
Don't you black or white me
