Ooooohh ooohh oohhh
Thinking of people
And were gonna keep stiring stiring
Big enough
Woo ooo oo oh
Take a pinch of white man
Wrap it up in black skin
Add a touch of blueblood
And a little bitty of red indian boy
Curly, black and kinky
Oriental sexy
If you lump it all together
Well you've 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 is a great big melting pot
Big enough to take the world and all it's got
Keep it stiring for a hundred years or more
Turning out coffee-colored people by the score
Rabbis and the friars
Bishops and the Gurus
We had the Beatles and the sun-gods
a long time ago (it's true)
But then it really didn't matter
What religion you choose
No no no ooo
Mick and Lady Faithful
Lord and missi graceful
You know the living could be tasteful
Why don't we all get together in a loving machine
I'd better 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 to take the world and all it's got
Keep it stiring for a hundred years or more
Turning out coffee-colored people by the score
Yeah yeah yeah
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
Keep it stiring for a hundred years or more
Turning out coffee-colored people by the score
Yeah
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
Keep it stiring for a hundred years or more
Turning out coffee-colored people by the score
