[Verse 1]
So, you've [Am]been to school
For a year or two
And you [Am]know you've seen it all
In [Am]daddy's car,
Thinking you'll go far
Back [Am]east your type don't crawl
Playing [G]ethnicky jazz
To pa[D]rade your snazz
On your [G]five-grand [D]stereo
[G]Braggin' that you know
How the [D]niggers feel cold
And the [G]slum's got so much [D]soul

[Pre-chorus 1]
It's [D]time to [C]taste what [G]you [C]most [Am]fear

You're a [Am]star- belly snitch
You suck like a leech
You want [Am]everyone to act like you
Kiss [Am]ass while you bitch
So you can get rich
But your [Am]boss gets richer off you
Well, [G]you'll work harder
With a [D]gun in your back
For a [G]bowl of rice a [D]day
[G]Slave for soldiers
[D]Till you starve
Then your [G]head is skewered on a [D]stake

[Pre-chorus 2]
[D]Now you can [C]go where the [G]people [C]are [Am]one
[D]Now you can [C]go where they [G]get [C]things [Am]done
[Dm]What you [Em]need, my [F]son...[Em]
[Dm]What you [Em]need, my [F]son...[Em]

Is a [A]holiday in [C]Cam[D]bodia
