Lyrics Deciphered By Reah - Sept. 2, '02
Verse 1
Wrote a letter to my dear friend
In South Africa
Honey bought tears to my eyes
Though she tried to her best
To hide the pain she felt inside
It wasn't hard to read between the lines
When she said
Chorus
Can you say anything you want to
Can you stay out late at night
If you want to
Are there no signs around
Saying we want no blacks in town
You must be living in paradise
Verse 2
She said that she was sorry
Things weren't going right
That my neighbors dog
Was disturbing me at night
That I didn't get the raise of pay
I wanted the other day
That if there was a possibility
She would gladly swap her place with me
Chorus
Verse 3
So obsessed was I
With the trival things I wanted
My very libertys are taken for granted
But then I heard from my friend in South Africa
I had to stop and wonder
Her words came back to haunt me
When she asked(BOO)
Chorus
