"Don't Call Me White" is a 7" single by NOFX featuring two songs from Punk in Drublic (1994); "Don't Call Me White" and "Punk Guy". The record was limited to 1,500 copies on white vinyl. The band sometimes changes the word white to Scheiß (the German word for "shit") during their live shows.[1]

Meaning

[edit]

When asked in a 1994 interview if the song is about reverse racism, Fat Mike responded saying, "Basically, I'm tired of all these correct terms you're supposed to be calling people now.[2]
