Last night my mother said to me:
"I'm sick of making history
There's got to be a better way
But we've got all these bills to pay
And they ain't just gonna go away"
Like a factory about to be shut down
Another factory about to be shut down
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
You're gonna like this one, you're gonna like this one
I do
See, if Mr. Botha was a man
He'd tip the hat, he'd pass the can
But he don't talk for you and me
I saw him on the BBC
His eyes looked like a factory
About to be shut down
His eyes looked like a factory
With the lights out, about to be shut down
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Last night my mother said to me:
"I'm sick of making history
There's got to be another way
For you to be"
Last night my mother said to me:
"When you grow up what will you be
If not the white minority
At least protect me"
I'm not a factory that's about to be shut down
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
Sold (Sold) There's gotta be a better way to be than this
I'm sold
Sold (Sold), did you hear it?
I'm sold
