Darius Nichols feat. 'Hair' Tribe - Hair (The New Broadway Cast Recording)

Colored Spade

I'm a...
Colored spade, a negro, a black nigger (all right!)
A jungle bunny, jigaboo, coon
A pickaninny, Mau Mau
Uncle Tom, Aunt Jemima, Little Black Sambo
Cotton pickin', swamp guinea, junk man, shoeshine boy
Elevator operator, table cleaner at Horn & Hardart
Slave, voodoo zombie, Ubangi-lipped
Flat-nosed tap dancin' resident of Harlem
And president of the United States of Love
I said, "President of the United States of Love", shit

(And, for dinner at the White House, you gonna feed him)
Watermelon, hominy grits and shortnin' bread
Alligator ribs (and what?)
Some pig tails (so you say)
Some black-eyed peas (so you say)
Some chitlins (so you say)
Some collard greens (oh)

And, if you don't watch out
The boogeyman will get ya
Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo!
So you say!
