Lyrics

Saw walking down in China Town
I sawe you but did not look around
I see you standing in the welfare line
I see you standing in it every time
Why can't we be friends?
I'd kind of like to be the president
So I can tell you how your money's spent
I know you're working for the C.I.A
They wouldn't have you in the Mafia
Why can't we be friends?
The color of your skin don't matter to me
As long as we can live in harmony
Why can't we be friends?
