I Wanna Know What Love Is
"Do you remember when we were young and impressionable and taught to believe everything the Great White father told us?"
How many girls stay awake all night
Too scared to sleep and too scared to fight back
I know you know what I'm talking about
Another woman killed and hardly a pout about it
Green River Killer my fucking ass
The cops have gotta be deaf, dumb and spastic
To not catch the killer of a hundred women
I guess it'd be different if they thought we were human
I wanna know what love is
What the fuck if we all got guns
To off the fucking pigs and all the other motherfuckers
Raping the children they paint like dolls
Jon Benet didn't scream cuz she never fucking was
Come on now the police aren't gonna save you
They're part of the problem that society gave you
Locking up black men for whistling in the wind
You see a mirage when you call the cop your friend
I wanna know what love is
The killers and the cops give us special advice
Like cross your legs and act fucking nice
While they kill us off old and fucking young
For breathing, relieving and having fun
They'll keep you scared so you have to have a boyfriend
And take your kids away if you're a la la lesbian
Arrest you for whoring then rape you in the car
It's time we point the fingers at who the real criminals are
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
So I'll stay awake almost every night
A pin in my hand and in the other a knife
Cuz I'd rather be scared and fight back
Then be some dick's maid, babe or wife
(When they kick at your front door)
How many girls stay awake all night
Too scared to sleep and too scared to fight back
I know you know what I'm talking about
Another woman killed and hardly a pout about it
Green River Killer my fucking ass
The cops have gotta be deaf, dumb and spastic
To not catch the killer of a hundred women
I guess it'd be different if they thought we were human
I wanna know what love is
What the fuck if we all got guns
To off the fucking pigs and all the other motherfuckers
Raping the children they paint like dolls
Jon Benet didn't scream cuz she never fucking was
Come on now the police aren't gonna save you
They're part of the problem that society gave you
Locking up black men for whistling in the wind
You see a mirage when you call the cop your friend
I wanna know what love is
The killers and the cops give us special advice
Like cross your legs and act fucking nice
While they kill us off old and fucking young
For breathing, relieving and having fun
They'll keep you scared so you have to have a boyfriend
And take your kids away if you're a la la lesbian
Arrest you for whoring then rape you in the car
It's time we point the fingers at who the real criminals are
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
So I'll stay awake almost every night
A pin in my hand and in the other a knife
Cuz I'd rather be scared and fight back
Then be some dick's maid, babe or wife
(When they kick at your front door)
