Amazing Skin Song

(álbum: Hot Chocolate - 1975)

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey

People stepping on my shoes
People bringing me bad news
People saying that you only mess around with black skin guys
People bringing me down
People turning their heads round
People saying that i'm with you only cause your skin is white

That's why you and I
We gotta fly so high
Get off the ground
That's why you and I
We gotta fly so high

See the look in her eyes
People giving us bad vibes
I'm not saying ain't black skin girls good enough for you
People getting up tight
Remembering you're white
People saying ain't white skin guys good enough for you

That's why you and I
We gotta fly so high
Get off the ground
That's why you and I
We gotta fly so high

Why can't they leave us alone
And try to make us feel
What we feel is wrong
All they see is the color of our skin
Why can't they see the love we carry within
Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey

People can be so cruel
People acting uncool
People just don't know how much I'm in love with you
People can be amazing
People going the wrong way
People just don't know how much I'm in love with you

That's why you and I
We gotta fly so high
Get off the ground
That's why you and I
We gotta fly so high

Why can't they leave us alone
And try to make us feel what we feel is wrong
All they see is the color of our skin
Why can't they see the love we're carrying within
Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
