The burden...lies

[1.]:
Take up the white man's burden
Take in the worst of their breed
And feed them, don't treat them with dignity
Your burden's hard to bear
Especially as they steal your job
And spoil your children and your neighbourhood
You know that you're right because your white and
Throw a brick at the window of a pizza joint
Just another phase as
The war between the races
Roars and the palefaces
Storm

[CHORUS]:
Is something wrong with your head?
That's where your burden lies
Is something wrong with your head?
That's where your burden lies
There's something wrong with your head
That's where your
Burden...lies

[2.]:
Take up the white man's burden
Or take your mat and go home
A home where black and white live side by side
You bear the white man's burden
Sink to the ground under the weight
Of the curse you could've turned into your blessing
Just another phase as
The war between the races
Roars and the palefaces
Fail to
Storm

[CHORUS]

That's where your burden...lies

[CHORUS]

You chose the burden
