Our Little Michael/Your Michael Jackson

Our Little Michael/Your Michael Jackson Our little Michael Begin his life in our homes He danced in our living rooms Like James Brown He was raised in every small Town in black America He and his brothers were the First black family band Like the White Osmond’s To make it big In the record business with Arithmetic and alphabet Songs Like Sugar and pop Syrupy breakfast cereal The girls fell in love with him Our little Michael Was the heart of Every little black girls Dream comes true And Even if The boys would get Jealous But He was our little Michael Like a little brother We watched as he grew up On TV And left our families As all children must Our little Michael Moved from every little black town To LA LA Land and embarked on a Solo career He worked with men like Mr Jones who took little Michael Into a new direction and he became Your Michael Jackson A black world wide phenom Everybody loved Michael Jackson Over time His behavior was Not understand by his family As his popularity grew More and more demands were made on him As his popularity grew More and more he distanced himself from his family As his popularity grew More and more he was like a homeless man But with riches and fame He became more and more like you Only God knows If his soul was tortured or if He was a troubled man But let us pray that our Little Michael has made peace With himself and it is well with his/our soul
