1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Kick it out, kick it out
With out a shadow of doubt
Lets eradicate, racism and hate
From colleges, schools and the halls
Such disgrace has no place what so ever
Within our educational walls

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Kick it out, kick it out
Say it out loud and shout
From terraces, tiers and the seats
Racism has no place
Around our communal green space
Or in any such place where we meet

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Kick it out, kick it out,
With such gusto, we shout
Our feelings are felt from within
All men and women are our brothers and sisters
Irrespective of colour of skin

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Kick it out, kick it out
Don’t whisper it, shout
In our cities our parks, roads and streets
So that in future years
All our racism fears
End up in that one word… defeat

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Kick it out. kick it out
When you say it, be loud
Let them know that you will not be quiet
Too many in the past have said nothing
Then regretted their actions, post riot

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Kick it out, kick it out
If you’re different be proud
It’s not all about colour of skin
People are often wrongly berated
Just for what they believe from within

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Kick it out, kick it out
Don’t leave others in doubt
On just what you feel about hate
Say it with such strength and conviction
That you won’t tolerate insults to your mates

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 Kick it out, kick it out
The above words leave no doubt
What you are feeling within
Be it lose, draw or win
Say it out loud or sing
Kick it out , kick it out, kick it out!
