[Chorus:] 
What will we do to become famous and dandy  
just like Amos 'n' Andy 
(2x) 
It's quite a spectacle 
to see us land in 
waste receptacles 
as if we've planned it 
We're never skeptical 
when we get branded 
Then disrespectful 
cause we feel abandoned 
The height of mediocrity 
is the challenge 
Crawling through the entrails 
of imbalance 
We learn to like to be the heroes 
We learn to lie to the brand name negroes 
We learn to laugh to avoid being angry 
We learn to kill and learn to go hungry 
We learn not to feel, for protection 
and we learn to flaunt when we get an erection 
[Chorus:] 
What will we do to become famous and dandy, 
just like Amos 'n' Andy 
(2x) 
We're born believing we're greater than circumstance 
Infinitely stronger than chance 
As our first breath is handed 
We taste the double standard 
the need to wear the mask 
And with society's nurturing 
The psychic plastic surgery 
begins to take effect 
As our souls watch astouned 
Our characters flounder 
duplicitous identity 
Diction and contradiction 
have become the skills 
of assimilation 
Razor honed to perfection 
From the moment of creation 
It's gone from identity crisis 
To survival slingshot to rifle 
Sin to revival 
Try to get looked at 
but not poked in the eyeball 
Warned of our impurities 
Afraid of insecurities 
Real life experts of the artificial 
Athletes and entertainers 
have become the minstrels 
on commercials 
[Chorus:] 
What will we do to become famous and dandy, 
just like Amos 'n' Andy 
(2x) 
On screen or off we can be rented 
to perform any feat 
And we reflect the images presented 
by the media's elite 
Positive or negative attention 
is viewed as success 
U.S.D.A. African American Beef 
is seen as progress 
We never ask ourselves 
too many questions 
too much thruth in introspection 
Maintain the regimentation 
and avoid self-degradation 
We act out all the stereotypes 
Try to use them as decoy 
and we become shining examles 
of the system we set out to destroy 
Cause even in the most radical groups 
you will find 
that when you stray from the doctrine 
you'll see hard times 
[Chorus:] 
What will we do to become famous and dandy, 
just like Amos 'n' Andy 
(2x) 
Being kicked in the mouth 
or smiling with no teeth 
They're both choices, yes 
but it's impossible to eat 
Uneducated, underdeveloped 
Undisciplined but mostly unaware 
We join the flavor of the month club 
We swallow the flavor of the month 
Well holding our crotch 
was the flavor of the month 
Bitch this Bitch that 
was the flavor of the month 
Being a thug 
was the flavor of the month 
Then no to drugs 
was the flavor of the month 
Kangol 
was the flavor of the month 
Rope gold 
was the flavor of the month 
Adidas shoes 
was the flavor of the month 
Then bashing Jews 
was the flavor of the month 
Gentrification 
was the flavor of the month 
Isolation 
was the flavor of the month 
My pockets are so empty I can feel my testicles 
cause I spent all my money on some plastic African necklaces 
and I still don't know what the colors mean... 
RED, BLACK AND GREEN 
[Chorus:] 
What will we do to become famous and dandy, 
just like Amos 'n' Andy 
(4x)
