Black-White Calypso (Live) - Live in Chicago
The other day reading Drum magazine I'll tell you some of the things I seen The other day reading Drum magazine I'll tell you some of the things I seen Advertisements for special cream in every section Give you a soft and pale complexion Make your black skin lighter creamier and whiter But when I look in the Star what do I find But advertisements of a different kind Because it seems that the white people have a notion To make them selves black with the Sun Tan Lotion
Tell me, tell me, tell me why I want to know the fact Why all the black people want to go white and the white people want to go black.

Tell me, tell me, tell me why I want to know the fact Why all the black people want to go white and the white people want to go black.

I have a simple remedy For all this frustrated energy I have a simple remedy For all this frustrated energy If you blacks have too much of this pigment stuff And the white people say you've not got enough Don't waste your time buying creams and jellies Trying to change the colour of your bellies but follow the example of my brother He married a black girl, they love each other And she gives him a little bit of black in the night And he gives her a little bit of white That's the solution!
Now I, now I, I know why I can tell you the fact Why all the black people want to go white and the white people want to go black.
