lyrics

Hey, it's me, up on this stage
Hair, voice, and tits
What are you looking at [x2]
Using you mostly drunk
Mostly white male gaze
What are you looking at [x2]

An hey, do not go to that black girl in the audience
And say, "your sister did a really good job!" [why]

Mistaking me constantly
With other loud-looking girls
What are you looking at [x2]
I know you think, "it must be her,"
"Who else could it be?"
But what were you looking at?
What were you looking at [x2]

And hey, the woman that you thought was me
Was just playing along with you
She's done this multiple times
She's just sick and tired of correcting you at this point
[and we know how much you hate being corrected!]

I've had enough of the cross race effect
Keep it up, son, it's gonna get you wrecked
Still haven't grown out of the cross race effect
Keep it up, son, it's gonna get you wrecked

Mistaking me constantly...
I know you think, it must be, must be, must be her
But what were you looking at
What were you looking at [x4]

And hey, cross race effect affects us all
There's a scientific reason for it, you should go look it up [Wikipedia]
But now that we know better, we can do better
So learn from this and move the fuck on
