lyrics

M-m-m-mixed blood girls

Makes white people happy
to tell me that they like my tan
But this is the same skin
That my mama met me in
Been a brown baby all my life
Til some buddy called me white
My mama’s white, I’ve never been
Don’t tell me about the skin I’m in

I’m brown in the sun
And I’m brown in the shade
As a girl I’ve heard it all
“Too pretty” to be NDN
I’m brown in the sun
And I’m brown in the shade
As a girl it’s hard to know
Who am I? What am I anyways?

M-m-m-mixed blood girls

I didn’t live on the rez
I lived on stories instead
My papa kept the trauma from my sleeping head
Aunties uncles all dead
Can’t find my cousins anywhere
From what I’ve heard they’re not doing good
What a fucked up feeling, oooooh
What a fucked up feeling, oooooh

Generations of pain
Got privilege all the same
Dark exotic interesting
NDN? You weren’t expecting

Brown in the sun
And I’m brown in the shade
As a girl I’ve heard it all
“Too pretty” to be NDN

What a fucked up feeling, oooooh
What a fucked up feeling, oooooh
What a fucked up feeling, oooooh
What a fucked up feeling, oooooh

M-m-m-mixed blood
