Take a pinch of white man
|
Wrap him up in black skin
|
Add a touch of blue blood
|
And a little bitty-bit of red indian boy..
|
Curly, black and kinky
|
Oriental sexy
|
If you lump it all together
|
Well, you've got a recipe for a get-along scene
|
Oh what a beautiful dream
|
If it could only come true
|
You know, you know..
|
|
What we need is a great big melting pot
|
Big enough to take the world and all it's got
|
Keep it stiring for a hundred years or more
|
Turning out coffee-colored people by the score
|
|
Rappers in the fires
|
Bishops and the gurus
|
We had the Beatles and the Sun-Gods
|
a long time ago (it's true)
|
But then it really didn't matter
|
What religion you choose
|
No no no
|
|
Mick and Lady Faithful
|
and everyone who's graceful
|
You know the living could be tasteful
|
Why don't we all get together in a lovin' machine
|
I'd better call up the Queen
|
It's only fair that she know
|
You know, you know..
|

CHORUS X 2 (to fade)
