He was born in Babylon, crosses burning on the lawn

Got his name on Hoover's list

Voice tight light, up close fist

Sunken eyes, deep like bone

Broke his spirit, heart of stone

We don't need no colour code

We don't need no colour code

Bring down the walls of Jericho

We don't need no colour code

White man speak with forked tongue

White supremacists eat their young

Bigotry is on the loose

Ignorance is no excuse

Fold and pray for the schools founded on Caucasian rule

We don't need no colour code

We don't need no colour code

Bring down the wall of Jericho

We don't need no colour code

Marching to Pretoria

Colour codes in wrote in blood

Following a fascist creed

Politics: the devil's seed

Electric churches, up in lights

Stained-glass souls redeem the night

We don't need no colour code

We don't need no colour code

Bring down the walls of Jericho

We don't need no colour code

Bring down the walls

Take your rules and hit the road

Colour code
