[Verse 1:] If you got a place where the gra** is green And the sky is blue and the air is clean And you got a church but you never go [Chorus:] That's a white people thing[x2] [Verse 2:] If you know your neighbours And you neighbour is good And you like your neighbour And your neighbourhood And you shake his hand And you say hello [Chorus] [Verse 3:] It's so nice to live in the suburb
Where white is the absence of colour Don't look for a brother Or bother a mother Who hopes exclusively wry [Chorus:] That's a white people thing! [Verse 4:] When you see a neighbour When you walk at night And you're not affraid Cause his face is right But you carry a gun Cause you never know [Chorus:] That's a white people thing[x2]
