Well, you don't know what you want
Working everyday in your restaurant
Your life is slipping out of control
Lose your job, gonna lose your soulNow boy, young and white
So you wanna make it bigger
Boy, you better watch your step
White niggerWhen you were young you had such big plans
Such big ambitions, gonna be a good man
I say look at you now, oh what a coward
Living your life but you don't know how to liveBoy
(Little boy)
Young and white, so you try to make it bigger
Boy
You just don't understand do you, white nigger?Work like a devil, work like a dog
Where does it get you, where do you go? Ooh
Work for the money, work for the show
Work for the people that you don't knowI see you driving around in your car
Pretend you're not what you really are
Just look in the mirror, look in your eyes
What you discover will be no surpriseSomething is missing, something's wrong
You got your money but something's gone
Something you had right from the start
You should have listened to your heartWork like a dog, work like a slave
Work like a devil, and what have you made ohh no, no, no
Work like a dog, work nine five
Working, shaking his hand, you're staying alive ohh no, no
Where you gonna go?Work, work every day
Work your life away and sure it pays
But where does it get you, where are you now?
Come on, white nigger
