nothing painted blue - 2nd class citizen lyrics

you come to seek employment information
your signature slides off the application
the moment that you’ve pocketed your pen
the census taker comes but doesn’t count you
you cast your vote but what does it amount to?
a choice of indistinguishable men
and whether you cost one or two or ten
they’ll treat you like a second+class citizen

in the street the children all harass you
and their parents pull them closer as they pass you
your landlord thinks he’s got you pigeonholed
thе underwriter turns you down for blue cross
i hopе you have a fragment of the true cross
to keep you and protect you from the cold
you’re going to need some real insurance when
they treat you like a second+class citizen
now it’s your word against their word
it’s the pure word against the swear word
they can find you by your accent
now they’re behind you
with a blackjack, a gun and some muscle relaxant

the train stops at a classified location
the p.a. blasts the names across the station
you suffer every mispr+nunciation
as they shove you by the hundreds in a pen
you’re nothing but a first+rate specimen
of a second+class citizen
