"Kill All the White People" is a song by Type O Negative, included on their third album Bloody Kisses, released in 1993. Together with the song "We Hate Everyone", it was written as a response to the controversy over the bands' alleged racist sentiments that were born after a tour in Europe and due to Peter Steele's previous band Carnivore's explicit lyrics. The lyrics are also considered to be a tongue-in-cheek satire about the constant blame for the ills of the world projected toward white people by some media.

Kill all the white people
Kill all the white people
Then we'll be free
We'll be free
Kill all the white people
Kill all the white people
Kill all the white people
Kill all the white people
Then we be free
Then we be free
We be free
Kill them all men
Kill them all
Then we be free
Then we be free
Then we be free
Then we be free
Then we be free
Then we be free
Then we be free
We be free
Ungawa
Black power
Destroy white boy
Yo by any means necessary
