kev carmody - white bourgeois woman lyrics

[verse 1]
he fell for her in ’85
it was a vertical drop
restless nights ‘n’ sheets of white
the passion never stopped
she studied to be a lawyer
he just couldn’t break the spell
two years of frenzied passion
a descent into h_ll

[chorus]
white bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)
white bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)

[verse 2]
most men encounter one woman
for whom they’d die or k!ll
they’d rot in a stinkin’ dungeon
or be shackled against their will
shе was such a woman
she stood far above a man
she conquеred all academia
but she never knew this land

[chorus]
white bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)
white bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)
oh, white bourgeois woman change your cultural mentality
you’ve experienced but a fraction
of our black reality
when you seek your liberation
clasp a firm black guiding hand
we say, “black in fact’s the colour
and the spirit of this land”
[verse 3]
the pain of her rejection
nailed him to the floor
leave him wanderin’ on the freeway
still beggin’ her for more
she cast him off with disdain
treated him as sh_t
she cast him off intellectually
against the desire of her cl_t

[verse 4]
well, he turned his face against the wind
towards the sunset of the land
she’s gone so long, and now she’s found
a white brand new bourgeois man
she feels the need for companionship
and comfort in the night
they’ve a culture there in common
they’re not racially oppressed
they’re white
[chorus]
bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)
white bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)
white bourgeois woman (oh, yeah)
white bourgeois woman
