Jamiroquai - Giving me a bad name
Talking about your brothers
People stop the fighting,
Gotta move it on
Oh my people,
Now I come flying now
Came flying from a nation
About the seggregation
Still keep it on the part
I wanna know where we gonna start
Yeah yeah yeah, your brothers are giving me, your brothers are
giving me a bad name
Oh giving me a bad name,
I wanna fight about now that you know we're on the same, on the
same...
I think,
And I'm fighting,
We're talking about the white knights of the Ku Klux Klan
Beat them, and keep them all them down, keep them down,
You can see a black, and you can see a white...
And we can talk about this order, indicisive
All your brothers are giving me,
Ohhh! giving me a bad name,
Oh you're giving me a bad name...
Come on now,
We got to argue people,
Brothers, I'm talking about the brothers that are giving me a
bad name,
I'm talking about the VMP, and the NF and the Ku Klux Klan...
Oh we gotta stop that going on...
I think you understand what I'm trying to say,
I'm saying all those brothers are giving me a bad name,
Ohhh.... giving me a bad name...
We got to fight on, we got to move on...
All those brothers
