one more day down
|
everybody has those days
|
where one soft sweet song's
|
just enough to clear my head
|
|
fall on real life
|
is anybody left there sane?
|
if we slide on over and accept fate
|
then it's bound to be a powerful thing
|
|
if it's just that you're weak
|
can we talk about it
|
it's gettin' so damn creepy
|
just nursing this ghost of a chance
|
the fiction, the romance
|
and the Technicolor dreams
|
of black and white people
|
|
one boy head strong
|
thinks that living here's just plain
|
He's pushed down so hard
|
you can hear him start to sink
|
|
and it's one last round of petty conversation
|
you hold on boy cuz
|
you won't go down like this?
|
just roll on over
|
lay down till it's more than you can take
|
|
so one more day down
|
and everybody's changin'
|
one more head down
|
just enough to reach my head
|
|
yeah if you're weak
|
can we talk about it
|
it's gettin' so damn creepy
|
just nursing this ghost of a chance
|
the fiction, the romance
|
and the Technicolor dreams
|
of black and white people
|
|
We are black and white people
|
