Chorus:
Why can't we be friends (4x)
I've seen you 'round for a long long time
I remembered you when you drank my wine
Chorus
I've seen you walking down in Chinatown
I called you but you could not look around
I paid my money to the welfare line
I see you standing in it every time
Chorus
The color of your skin don't matter to me
As long as we can live in harmony
I'd kind of like to be the President
Then I can show you how your money's spent
Sometimes I don't speak right
But yet I know what I'm talking about
I know you're working for the CIA
They wouldn't have you in the Mafi-A.
Chorous
