It wasn't my idea...

In a haze these days
I pull up to the stop light
I can feel that something's not right
I can feel that someone's blasting me with hate
And bass
Sendin' dirty vibes my way
'Cause my great great great great Grandad
Made someones' great great great great Grandaddies slaves
It wasn't my idea
It wasn't my idea
Never was my idea

- From Ben Fold's "Rocking The Suburbs"

although everyone in my part of the South was too dirt poor to own any slaves...
