African China Man?
Oh God
Why did you make my skin so dark?
So you can hide from those who take your spark
Oh God
Why did you make my eyes big and white?
So you could see better on the days with no light
Oh God
Why did make my nostrils flare?
So you could breath in all this wonderful air
Oh God
Why did you make me this type of person that I am?
For you are an African and the strength of your land
Then what the heck am I doing in China big man!
( I originally heard a version of this in spanish,
just put my own take on it lol.
hope no offense :P)
