Song Lyrics

"We Don t Need No Colour Code"

by Steve Taylor
Album: Limelight

Down Carolina way
Lived a man name o' Big B.J.
B.J. went and got a school
Founded on caucasian rule
Bumper sticker on his Ford
Says "Honkies If You Love The Lord"

We don't need no colour code
Take your rules and hit the road
Judgment Day is goin' down
Better burn your cap and gown

White man speak with forked tongue
White supremists eat their young
Bigotry is on the loose
Ignorance is no excuse
I know Jesus loves that man
Even with a Greenville tan

We don't need no colour code
Take your rules and hit the road
Judgment Day is goin' down
Better burn your cap and gown

Marching to Pretoria
Colour codes in churches, huh'
Following a fascist creed
Whose translation do you read'
True believers won't be snowed
We don't need no colour code

We don't need no colour code
Take your rules and hit the road
Judgment Day is goin' down

We don't need no colour code
We don't need no colour code
Take your rules and hit the road

We don't need no colour code
We ain't playing dead this time
This is where we draw the line
