[verse 1]
welcome to the world of a kid named mikey
who had only one reason to be hated by whitey (by whitey)
raised on a farm outside o’ south bend
where they hated on him (’cause he was african american)
but three years later, mikey was the town pride (town pride)
basketball, mikey went and got himself a full ride
earned his acceptance on a hardwood floor
and that’s somethin’ white america would never ignore
[pre-chorus]

i wanna know just what’s goin’ down

you wanna know just what’s goin’ down?
[breakdown]
take a look around
everything is comin’ down
do you hear the subtle sounds
of our morality slippin’?
people on the go
we’ll be reapin’ what we sow
yeah, we say we want to know
but i got my suspicions
[verse 2]
now welcome to the world of a girl named susie
susie’s only crime was that she was born a cutie (a cutie)
physically abused by her uncle and his friends
alcohol, let ’em all leave the house with grins
but susie couldn’t shake off the memories (the memory)
forced to find her own kind of remedy (o’ remedy)
a man-eater for the rest of her days
three kids, three men, no daddies by eleventh grade
[pre-chorus]
stop, hey, what’s that sound?
everybody, look what’s goin’ down
stop, children, what’s that sound?
everybody, look what’s goin’ down
