 I seen you walking down in China-Town
 I called you but you did not look around--yeah yeah
 I pay my money to the welfare line
 I see you standing in it everytime

 The color of your skin don't matter to me
 as long as we can live in harmony--yeah yeah
 I kind of like to be the President
 and I could show you how your money's spent
