Take a pinch of white man
|
Wrap him up in black skin
|
Add a touch of blue blood
|
And a little bitty bit of a red Indian boy
|
Like a Curly Latin kinkies
|
Oh Lord, Lord, mixed with yellow Chinkees, yeah
|
You know you lump it all together
|
And you 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, what we need
|
is a great big melting pot
|
Big enough big enough big enough to take
|
The world and all it's got
|
And keep it stirring for
|
A hundred years or more
|
And turn out coffee coloured people
|
by the score
|
Rabbis and the friars
|
Vishnus and the gurus
|
We got the Beatles or the Sun God
|
Well it really doesn't matter
|
What religion you choose
|
And be thankful little Mrs. Graceful
|
You know that livin' could be tasteful
|
We should all get together in a lovin machine
|
I think I'll call up the Queen
|
It' s only fair that she knows
|
You know, you know
|
What we need, what we need
|
is a great big melting pot
|
Big enough big enough big enough to take
|
The world and all its got
|
And keep it stirring for
|
A hundred years or more
|
And turn out coffee coloured people by the score
|
