The white man call himself civilized
Cause he know how to take over
The white man come to pillage my village
Now he tell me I have to bend over

Oh yeah, kill all the white man

No I don't like the white man up in me
He rape all my people as he rape my country
Everything I love and cherish, he try to take away
We will be rid of him, soon come the day

Oh yeah, kill all the white man
Oh yeah, kill all the white man
Oh yeah, kill all the white man
Oh yeah, kill all the white man

    I guess none of you cuntrags have seen ten years of fucking up...

    To end all you 15 year olds squabbling, there is a nice big interview on "10 years...". El Hefe wrote this song with Fat Mike, and its actually, quote from them, about "all those fucked up nazi-punks who ruin their shows".

    lol wow are you telling me that NOBODY here can sense the heavy sarcasm in this song? you HONESTLY think it's an anti white song? This song is making fun of anti white racists, that's all. The song starts out with a reggae sound, the lyrics are grammatically incorrect "kill all the white man" and the vocalist sings with a jamaican accent...how is it NOT a satirical song? haha dumbasses

    Way to go with your blanket statement there. Your parents must be proud. Ten bucks says you've never opened a history book in your life. fatwrecks, you shouldn't be able to breed.

    it's not about "how white people are the people who fuck up society", it's about getting rid of social and racial stereotypes. just as in several other NOFX songs, they are saying here that they aren`t "white", and that people who buy into social and racial sterotypes, such as fatwrecks, are generally horrible people.

    Hey , i disagree with Fatwrecks, white man don't fuck up society. Society destroys itself for it's no more than a mayority of group that look or think alike, now , when people don't meet don't meet to their standards start doig stupid stuff, white men as black men. Now, i can't go with the song either cuz how can a song that says : OH YEAH KILL THE WHITE MAN and tells about how angry they are that the "white man" came and raped "their people", that's just plain stupid. I havent' heard the song, but thel lyrics speak for themselves.

    I think you guys are taking white too literally. Mike is trying to say that "white" men, shovanists are hurting the country, KKK members (white men), are hurting the country, government leaders (white men) are hurting the country, who's on top? The white man, he controls all, and shouldn't, the stereotypical white man controls what he shouldn't, and that's why they say he should die. Think of kill as abolish, all lines of racism should be abolished, no white, no black.

    Why is it that the girls who always comment have calmer saner things to say. Good job Susiehighschool. Then again I was a complete idiot when I was 15 too. Look white people aren't innately intolerent. They living in Europe a fertile hospitible place when they got their shit together advanced quickly. Much quicker then others and were soon all over the globe. Seeing new things all the time and having new experiences they weren't ready for and in some cases handled themselves badly. But if you look at other people say the Chinese they never went around the world to meet these other people. Its not that yellow people are nicer. They just stayed put and never had the experiences the Europeans had. This is a classic example of technology moving faster then people could cope. We had fast cutter ships but limited antropological knowledge.

More Featured Meanings

Album art
Spirit Within
Bertoldi Brothers
Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Album art
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Album art
Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Album art
Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
