A Day In The Life II.

I. They Don't Like Me Much

    Because I'm A Colored One
    No, The Don't Like Me Much
    I Only Wish They'd Listen Some.


II. They Don't Like Me Much
     Cause' I Don't Have The Right Name
      No, They Don't Like Me Much
     Cause' I'm Not A John Doe, I'm A Jane.


III. Sometimes I Feel Pretty Small
      I'm In The Center of Light Skin
      Sometimes I Feel Pretty Bad
      If Kids See Me, Parents Think It's A Sin.


IV. I've Been Berated For My Color
      And For the Way That I Appear
      I've Been Berated For My Gender
      I Go Down The Street And People Stare.


V. I've Been Around For A Long While Now
     Since Adam And Since Eve
     Since The Big Bang, If You Prefer
     Why Is It So Hard For My Existence To Conceive.


VI. Covered By Padding
      And Cloth And Band-aids
     You'd Think I was An Open Wound
     But That's Just Not The Case.


VII. I Feel That T.V Hides Me
       Behind A Blur Of White
       Behind A Small Black Circle
       People Think I'm Harmful To Their Sight.


VIII. No, They Don't Like Me Much
        My Presence Is An Indecent Crime
        Since I'm On A Woman Instead Of A Man
        I'll Wait Forever Until I Get Air-Time.


IX. Let Me Make My T.V Debut
      My Request Is Very Simple
      Whoever Thought It Would Be So Hard
      Living Life As A Woman's Nipple.
