Verse
C#
He was running down the street
C#
When they shot him in his tracks
F#4 F#9
About the only thing agreed upon
F#4 F#9
Is he ain't coming back
C#
There won't be any trial
C#
So the air it won't be cleared
F#4 F#9
There's just two sides calling names
F#4 F#9
Out of anger out of fear
C#
If you say it wasn't racial
C#
When they shot him in his tracks
F#4 F#9
Well I guess that means that you ain't black
F#4 F#9
It means that you ain't black
C#
I mean Barack Obama won
C#
And you can choose where to eat
F#4 F#9
But you don't see too many white kids lying
F#4 F#9
Bleeding on the street
[Verse 2]
C#
In some town in Missouri
C#
But it could be anywhere
F#4 F#9
It could be right here on Ruth Street
F#4 F#9
In fact it's happened here
C#
And it happened where you're sitting
C#
Wherever that might be
F#4 F#9
And it happened last weekend
F#4 F#9
And it will happen again next week
C#
And when they turned him over
C#
They were surprised there was no gun
F#4 F#9
I mean he must have done something
F#4 F#9
Or else why would he have run
C#
And they'll spin it for the anchors
C#
On the television screen
F#4 F#9
So we can shrug and let it happen
F#4 F#9
Without asking what it means
[Chorus]
C#
What it means?
C#
What it means?
[Verse 3]
C#
Then I guess there was protesting
C#
And some looting in some stores
F#4 F#9
And someone was reminded that
F#4 F#9
They ain't called colored folks no more
C#
I mean we try to be politically
C#
Correct when we call names
F#4 F#9
But what's the point of post-racial
F#4 F#9
When old prejudice remains?
C#
And that guy who killed that kid
C#
Down in Florida standing ground
F#4 F#9
Is free to beat up on his girlfriend
F#4 F#9
And wave his brand new gun around
C#
While some kid is dead and buried
C#
And laying in the ground
C#
With a pocket full of skittles
[Chorus]
C#
What it means?
C#
What it means?
[Verse 4]
C#
Astrophysics at our fingertips
C#
And we're standing at the summit
F#4 F#9
And some man with a joystick
F#4 F#9
Lands a rocket on a comet
C#
We're living in an age
C#
Where limitations are forgotten
F#4 F#9
The outer edges move and dazzle us
F#4 F#9
But the core is something rotten
C#
And we're standing on the precipice
C#
Of prejudice and fear
F#4 F#9
We trust science just as long
F#4 F#9
As it tells us what we want to hear
C#
We want our truths all fair and balanced
C#
As long as our notions lie within it
F#4 F#9
There's no sunlight in our asses
F#4 F#9
And our heads are stuck up in it
C#
And our heroes may be rapists
C#
Who watch us while we dream
F#4 F#9
But don't look to me for answers
F#4 F#9
Cuz I don't know what it means
[Chorus]
C#
What it means?
C#
What it means?
