(loud guitar riff...banging on door)
"HEY!"
"What?"

"Dad, this is the best part!"
"No!"
"IT'S TOO LATE FOR THIS. TURN IT OFF!"
"Dad, this is the best part! Come on!"
"NO. TURN IT OFF NOW!"
"No, this is the---I wanna listen to it, okay?"
(father screaming over the music as the kid turns it up...banging on door...you hear a tape being put in)
"Yeah, right. Too late? Sure. Eat this." (music changes and song starts)

I took my baby on a saturday bang
Boy is that girl with you
Yes we're one and the same
Now I believe in miracles
and a miracle has happened tonight

They print my message in the saturday sun
I had to tell them I ain't secound to none
And I told about equality
And it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right

I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
Sew when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain't scared of no sheets
I ain't scared of nobody
Girl when the goin' gets mean
Protection
For gangs clubs and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war on a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See it's not about races just places faces
Where your blood comes from is
Where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend my life being a color
Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye
I said if you're thinkin' of being my baby
I said if you're thinkin' of being my brother
