Try to run, get a gun. He just laugh, it makes it more fun. And it makes no difference if you're yellow or you're red. When that bad man say tonight is the night you are dead. And it makes no difference if you're black or you're white. When the Tokoloshe say tonight is the night, it's tonight. Hard like rock, ain't got no soul.
