[Chorus:]

What will we do to become famous and dandy

just like Amos 'n' Andy

(2x)

It's quite a spectacle

to see us land in

waste receptacles

as if we've planned it

We're never skeptical

when we get branded

Then disrespectful

cause we feel abandoned

The height of mediocrity

is the challenge

Crawling through the entrails

of imbalance

We learn to like to be the heroes

We learn to lie to the brand name negroes

We learn to laugh to avoid being angry

We learn to kill and learn to go hungry

We learn not to feel, for protection

and we learn to flaunt when we get an erection

[Chorus:]

What will we do to become famous and dandy,

just like Amos 'n' Andy

(2x)

We're born believing we're greater than circumstance

Infinitely stronger than chance

As our first breath is handed

We taste the double standard

the need to wear the mask

And with society's nurturing

The psychic plastic surgery

begins to take effect

As our souls watch astouned

Our characters flounder

duplicitous identity

Diction and contradiction

have become the skills

of assimilation

Razor honed to perfection

From the moment of creation

It's gone from identity crisis

To survival slingshot to rifle

Sin to revival

Try to get looked at

but not poked in the eyeball

Warned of our impurities

Afraid of insecurities

Real life experts of the artificial

Athletes and entertainers

have become the minstrels

on commercials

[Chorus:]
