Human Race

This thing is worrying me day and night

 This talk about nations and black and white

 This thing is worrying me day and night

 This talk about nations and black and white

 And nobody - cyah tell me for true

 Who the hell descended from who

 But brother let me make you to understand

 The two nations in this world is woman and man.

 If an Indian woman goes with an Englishman that is one nation

 If an Irish man goes with a Mongolian, another nation

 If a South African goes with a Nigerian the facts you must face

 No matter who your mother or father may be

 You belong to the human race

 Well if what they taught me was right

 They said that Adam and Eve was white

 And if it's the truth they tell

 It's quite obvious, so was Cain and Abel

 I don't know what happen but it's a fact

 All I know plenty people born black

 And so if what they taught us we must believe

 We all descended from Adam and Eve

 So if an Eskimo should goes with a Korean, that is one nation

 And if a pygmy goes with a big, big Amazon, another nation

 If an Egyptian goes with a Grenadian, wey you trying to trace

 No matter who your Mooma and Poopa may be

 You belong to the human race

 Believe me I am one Calypsonian

 Who doh have business wid pigmentation

 Doh matter the colour of your skin

 Dat doh cut no ice dat doh mean ah ting

 It have some men from Alabama

 Ah does see dem on George St and Miramar

 Wid all kinda wahbeen dey making move

 So whey de hell in Alabama dey trying to prove

 If a Puerto Rican goes with a Chinese, that is one nation

 If a Russian man goes with a Japanese, another nation

 If a Carriacou man goes with a Mexican, dat ent no disgrace

 Don't matter wey your mooma and poopa may be

 You belong to the human race.

 

 For instance in the animal creation

 There is no such thing as pigmentation

 We got black and white in horse goat and hog

 And sometimes you bounce up a brong skin dog

 How the hell you eating pork from the black skin sow

 You don't ask for white meat from a white cow

 Well if animals have equality,

 What the hell is the difference between you and me?

 If a Hawaiian goes with a Trinidadian, that is one nation.

 If a Filipino goes with a Tobagonian, another nation

 If an A-merican goes with an African, I done sum up the case

 Don't matter who your mooma and poopa may be

 You belong to the human race.
