Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
Who do think I am?
You raise my taxes, and freeze my wages
And send my son to Vietnam
You give me second class houses
And second class schools
Do you think that all colored folks
Are just second class fools?
Mr. Backlash
I'm gonna leave you with the blues
When I try to find a job
To earn a little cash
All you got to offer
Is your mean old white backlash
But the world is big
Big and bright and round
And it's full of other folks like me
Who are black, yellow, beige and brown

Yes, I am

And send my son to Vietnam
You give me second class houses
And second class schools
Do you think that all colored folks
Are just second class fools?
