The Mean Bettwen The Stremes
OURS - THE MEAN BETTWEN STREMES
yesterday's sorrow
not forgetting tomorrow
stolen just like a baby
in a world full of maybe's
for the thought of a dollar
and taught hate of a color
born to days till we play the routine
of a game that's so old and obscene
today all the troubles exceed
as the media helps destroy dreams
with a duke and a reverend it seems
we can't find the mean between extremes
x then go
I pretend all the white boys
took a flag to the black toy
and they return to a wondrous day
and they're thinkin' in a different way
they talk of the last man
of a cheap and depressed man
funny how it seems that some never even see
what's been built and been taught to believe
there's a thought that some races don't bleed
or that pain is just something for me
if you think that then brother, you'll see
the blood was expensive and so it seems
hey
is it thought that some races don't bleed
or that pain is just something for me
the a duke and a reverend it seems
we can't find the mean between extremes
it's alright
