I swear that someday
I'll tell you without lying
I was born to quit smoking
I was born to quit dying
On that day, not doing heroin
Will be easy as piss and on that day
I'll stop talking so much shit about the government
'Cause urine speaks louder than words
On a politician
Or on a prison warden
Urine speaks louder than words
I swear that today
I was born to be living!
I was born to be singing!
I was born to be fighting
But will somebody say
Is this resistance or a costume party?
Either way I think black with bandanas
Is a boring theme
I don't gotta tell ya
Crackers are great with amnesia
When you wanna forget something like
Centuries of racism
They say look at the man on
Center stage and pay no attention
While millions get locked in a cage
Riots break out in oakland
Urine speaks louder than words
On a prison warden
Or on a Bart policeman
Urine speaks louder than words
