O branco inventou que o negro
Quando não suja na entrada
Suja na saída
Ê, imagina só
Suja na saída
Ê imagina só
Que mentira danada, ê
Na verdade a mão escrava
Passava a vida limpando
O que o branco sujava
Ê imagina só
O que o branco sujava
Ê imagina só
O que o negro penava
Mesmo depois de abolida a escravidão
Negra é a mão quem faz a limpeza
Lavando a roupa encardida, esfregando o chão
Negra é a mão, é a mão da pureza
Negra é a vida consumida ao pé do fogão
Negra é a mão nos preparando a mesa
Limpando as manchas do mundo com água e sabão
Negra é a mão de imaculado nobreza
Na verdade a mão escrava
Passava a vida limpando
O que o branco sujava
Ê imagina só
O que o branco sujava
Ê imagina só
Eta branco sujão
