The Task

Skinhead you're the talk of the town
Everybody's talking about what went down the other night
They're saying it wasn't right
But to you it was just another fight
White man I heard you had a march, the other day
I hope it got off to a good start, and that you had your say
You're just trying to stand up for your rights
And show the world that you're proud to be White
Well it ain't the first time, and it won't be the last before you
Before you finish your task
Hey teacher heard you taught a lesson, back at school
The board got on you, said that you were messin', breaking all the rules
You're just trying to teach the truth to all the White girls and boys
But they're saying that you're making too much noise
Well it ain't the first time, and it won't be the last before you
Before you finish your task
It ain't the first time and it won't be the last before you
Before you finish your task
White people all around the world, did you finish your task
Let me answer all of your questions, before you ask
We must all stand up for our race, before it gets, before it gets too late
Well it ain't the first time, and it won't be the last before we
Before we finish our task
Well it ain't the first time, and it won't be the last before we
Before we finish our task
Before we finish our task
