Lyrics

I'm a colored spade
 A negro, a black nigger
 A jungle bunny, Jigaboo coon
 Pickaninny mau mau
 Uncle Tom, Aunt Jemima
 Little Black Sambo
 Cotton pickin'
 Swamp guinea
 Junk man
 Shoeshine boy
 Elevator operator
 Table cleaner at Horn and Hardart
 Slave voodoo, zombie
 Ubangi lipped
 Flat nose, tap dancin'
 Resident of Harlem
 And president of
 The United States of Love
 President of
 The United States of Love
 There she is
 You invite this man to dinner
 You're gonna have to feed him
 Watermelon, hominy grits
 An' shortnin' bread
 Alligator ribs and pig tails
 Some Black Eyed Peas
 Hot Chilies
 Some watermelon hominy grits
 An' shortnin' bread, alligator ribs
 Pig tails, Black Eyed Peas
 Collard greens
 And if you don't watch out
 The boogie man will get you
 Boo!
 Did you hear what he said about the boogie man?
 That guy has got to be outta his mind
 I think he said boogie man, that sure is nasty
 Ha, so you say
