You can stay in the dark brother
You can stay in the dark
You can stay in the dark sister
You can stay in the dark
I called for the African doctor just to play a part for me
He told me that's an easy thing to do
He told me we don't need no relation
We don't want no relation
We don't need no relation
We don't want no relation
Doctor Lester (Doctor)
He's a real good doctor (Doctor)
Doctor Lester (Doctor)
He's a medical doctor (Doctor)
Doctor Lester (Doctor)
He's the African doctor (Doctor)
