Anything Bad (They Call It Back) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Anything bad they call it black
Anything bad they call it black
Anything bad they call it black
But black is the cream of the crop
They say when you're brown,
you hang around
When you're white, you alright
But when you're black, you stay back
That isn't right, oh my gosh
Anything bad, they call it black
Black market, black mail
Why didn't they give them
a different color?
You say that's what they taught us
But they can no longer fool us
Black is taking over the limelight
And they ain't no stopping us now
Because we're moving up
Moving up to the top
Black's moving up
We're moving up to the top
Anything bad, they call it black
It's a fact
Anything bad, they call it black
But yes, I'm the blackest
creep of the crop
You see, I'm not easy to be
[A]brainwashed[G]
Anything bad, they call it black
Anything bad, they call it black
But black is the cream of the crop
You see, I'm not easy
to be brainwashed
They say, when you're brown,
you hang around
When you're white, you're alright
But when you're black, you stay back
That isn't right, oh my gosh
Anything bad, they call it black
Anything bad, they call [D]it [G]black
They have the black [G]market,
black mail, black
[G]Sunday, why didn't they
call it a different color?
[A]You see, tha[G]t's what they taught us.
But they can no longer fool us.
You see, black is a [G]frame of the cross.
