To start it off...

Prejudice, wrote a song about it.

Like to hear it? Here it go.



I wear tight clothing, high heeled shoes

It doesn't mean that I'm a prostitute, no no

I like rap music, wear hip hop clothes

That doesn't mean that I'm out sellin' dope no no

Oh my forgive me for having straight hair, no

It doesn't mean there's another blood in my heir yeah yeah

I might date another race or color

It doesn't mean I don't like my strong black brothers.



Why oh why must it be this way

Before you can read me you gotta learn how to see me, I said

Free your mind and the rest will follow

Be color blind, don't be so shallow.

Free your mind and the rest will follow

Be color blind, don't be so shallow



So I'm a sistahFree Your Mind 歌詞
音樂 ABC


Buy things with cash

That really doesn't mean that all my credit's bad, oooh

So why dispute me and waste my time

Because you really think the price is high for me

I can't look without being watched, and oh

You rang my buy before I made up my mind, OW!

Oh now attitude, why even bother

I can't change your mind, you can't change my color



Why oh why must it be this way?

Before you can read me you gotta learn how to see me, I said

Free your mind and the rest will follow

Be color blind, don't be so shallow…



Why oh why must it be this way?

Before you can read me you gotta learn how to see me, I said

Free your mind and the rest will follow

Be color blind, don't be so shallow... FREE YOUR MIND!

Black is the color of my true love's hair

His face so soft and wondrous fair

The purest eyes and the strongest hands

I love the ground on where he stands

Black is the color of my true love's hair

Of my true love's hair



Oh, I love my lover and well he knows

Yes, I love the ground on where he goes

And still I hope that the time will come

When he and I will be as one

Black is the color of my true love's hair



Nina Simone, Black (blonde) is the Color of My True Love's Hair http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxM5MhRU ... re=related

(1957) Dimitri Tiomkin, Ned Washington



Love me love me love me

Say you do

Let me fly away

with you

For my love is like

the wind

And wild is the wind



Give me more

than one caress

Satisfy this

hungriness

Let the wind

blow through your heart

For wild is the wind



You...

touch me...

I hear the sound

of mandolins

You...

kiss me...

With your kiss

my life begins

You're spring to me

All things

to me



Don't you know you're

life itself

Like a leaf clings

to a tree

Oh my darling,

cling to me

For we're creatures

of the wind

And wild is the wind

So wild is the wind



Wild is the wind

Wild is the wind



sung by Nina Simone

Fodder in her wings



A bird fell to earth, reincarnated from her birth.
She had fodder in her wings.
She had dust inside her brains.
She flitted here and there United States, Switzerland, France, England, everywhere.
With fodder in her wings.
And dust inside her brains.
Oh how sad. Oh how sad. Oh how sad.
She watched the people, how they live.
They've forgotten how to give.
They had fodder in they're brains.
They had dust inside they're wings.
She watched them how they tried to live.
They've forgotten how to give.
They had fodder in they're wings.
They had dust inside they're brains.
Oh how sad. Oh how sad. Oh how sad.
*musical interlude*

Oh man, the Jive Turkey clip...love it.



The Back to Life, I used to listen to that song alot.

[Senear]

The glamour boys swear they are a diva

The glamour boys have it all under control

Always dancing always laughing

The glamous boys are playing the role

The glamour boys never have no money

The glamour boys wear the most expensive clothes

The glamour boys are always at the party

Where the money comes from heaven only knows



I ain't no glamour boy - i'm fierce!

I ain't no glamour boy

I ain't no glamour boy - i'm fierce!

I ain't no glamour boy

The glamour boys live off their ambition

The glamour boys have it all figured out

A very, very dubious position

When you got no clout

The glamour boys' whole life is a gamble

They might get over or fall flat on their face

But if one does, there's no need to worry

Another g-boy will take his place



The glamour boys don't think about tomorrow

The glamour boys just need tonight to play

But just like things you can't afford on credit

Time catches up and you have to pay

The glamour boys are always on the guest list

You'll always find them in the hottest spots in town

They'll be your friend if you have fame or fortune

If you don't they won't be hanging 'round



"whaddya mean my credit's no good??"

[Senear]

hehe thats cool. even when i would not admit to liking that song, i did Jive turkey...yea one of the best clips EVAR lol. ill find one or two more then stop before i spam a 40 page thread lol

I can't stop the way I feel

Things you do don't seem real



Tell me what you've got in mind

'Cause we're runnin' out of time

Won't you ever set me free

This waiting round is killing me



She drives me crazy

Like no one else

She drives me crazy

I can't help myself



I can't get any rest

People say I'm obsessed

Everything you say is lies

But to me there's no surprise

What I had for you was true

Things go wrong, they always do



She drives me crazy

Like no one else

She drives me crazy

I can't help myself



I won't make it on my own

No one likes to be alone



She drives me crazy

Like no one else

She drives me crazy

I can't help myself



Uh huh huh



She drives me crazy

Like no one else

She drives me crazy

I can't help myself



Uh huh huh



She drives me crazy

Like no one else

She drives me crazy

I can't help myself

Get Busy!

Everybody's talking all this stuff about me

Why don't they just let me live?

I don't need commission, make my own decisions

That's my prerogative



They say I'm crazy

I really don't care

That's my prerogative

They say I'm nasty

But I don't give a damn

Getting girls is how I live

Some messy questions

Why am I so real?

But they don't undersand me

I really don't know the deal about her brother

Trying hard to make it right

Not long ago

Before I win this fight, sing



Chorus:



Everybody's talking all this stuff about me

Why don't they just let me live?

Tell me why I don't need commission

Make my own decisions

That's my prerogative

It's my prerogative (it's my prerogative)



It's the way that I wanna live (it's my prerogative)

I can do just what I feel (it's my prerogative)

No one can tell me what to do (it's my prerogative)

'Cause what I'm doing I'm doing for you



Don't get me wrong

I'm really not souped

Ego trips is not my thing

All these strange relationships really gets me down

I see nothing wrong in spreading myself around



(chorus)



I can do what I wanna do (it's my prerogative)

I can live my life (it's my prerogative)

And I'm doing it just for you (it's my prerogative)



Tell me, tell me why can't I live my life

Live my life without all of the things

That people say oh



Yo, teddy kick it like this

Oh no no I can do what I wanna do

Me and you together together together together together



(chorus)

The black spirit is not afraid to express...thats what I love about them. I lived in Virginia for 10 years and worked with many black people and came to know them and their spirit. Sure they are humans like all races, but I find their sense of freedom so inspiring and other races did not quite face the extreme hardships they did/do and still keep their soul and jive alive.
