Lyrics of Melting pot

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

Like a colored kinky, yeah
(movin' on and on, yeah)
(incomprehensible), 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 colored 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
(it doesn't matter what religion you choose)

And couldn't they be thankful
(you (incomprehensible), people)
Mr. and mrs. graceful, yeah
(oh, lord)

You know that livin' could be tasteful
We should all get together in a loving machine
I think i'll call up the queen, it's only fair that she knows
You know, you know

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 colored people by the score

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 colored people by the score

I tell you, 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 colored people, coffee colored people
Coffee colored people by the score
