(I SEE A KETTLE AND I WANT TO) CALL IT BLACK
Lyrics by Arthur Levesque -- bs@boog.org -- http://boog.org
(To the tune of "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones)

I see a kettle and I want to call it black
I'm rubber and you're glue, your insults all bounce back
I see some guy walk by as rude as he can be
I have to close my eyes to not see that it's me

I read some kettle's posts and tell him he is black
Taste, logic, and fair play; all qualities I lack
I see people shake their heads and quickly look away
Put me in their killfiles, that just happens every day

I look back at my self and see that I am black
I see my faults laid out I'm a pot painted black
Maybe now I'll run away and not have to face the fact
It's not easy facing up when you yourself are black

No more will I go easy on a poor newbie
I cannot foresee this thing happening to me
If I flame hard enough into enough newsgroups
Someone will laugh with me against the other dupes

I see a kettle and I want to call it black
I'm rubber and you're glue, your insults all bounce back
I see some guy walk by as rude as he can be
I have to close my eyes to not see that it's me

Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm [x4]

I want to call the kettle, call it black
Black as night, black as me
I want to have the truth covered up from my eyes
I want to call the kettle, call it, call it, call it black
Yeah

Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm [fade]
