| And God saw that this work was nearly done
|
| A green, mighty planet circled round the sun
|
| Silver fishes increased in the blue seas
|
| All kinds of feathered built their nests in the trees
|
| And God saw that everything was nice
|
| But there had to be a creature who looked like me and you — so he realised!
|
| So he took some earth and put it in a form
|
| But the oven wasn’t hot enough — so the white man was born!
|
| Walk on, walk on, you can live in the cold zone of the world
|
| 'cause you are used to it, since your birth
|
| I have to build another creature who looks like me and you
|
| But one who’s not so pale — he has to get a hotter blow!
|
| So he took some earth and put it in a form
|
| But the oven was too hot now — so the black man was born!
|
| Walk on, walk on, you can live in the hot zone of the world
|
| 'cause you are used to it, since your birth
|
| I have to build another creature who looks like me and you
|
| But one who’s not so dark — he has to get a special blow!
|
| So he took some earth and put it in a form
|
| An the oven was right now — so the gipsy was born!
|
| Go to the top of the mountain and look, do you see this land around?
|
| Go where you like to be 'cause you and the gipsy will be free … |
