Despite the discord that’s been fanned
The Lone Ranger and Superman
Have disappeared like contraband
They’re trying hard to understand
How things got this far-gone
And how minorities got this strong
They’re wondering where they went wrong
Which is an old familiar song

Judging by the way they act
They want to take the country back
To an era of white versus black
And that's a sad but salient fact
But those gone-by days are long gone
And generally speaking we’ve move on
It has become a brand new dawn
Leaving the dinosaurs to morn

It took them a while to realize
The changes right before their eyes
And now they just romanticize
About keeping down those they despise
Although that horse has left the barn
All they can say is **** **** ****
Their hegemony an ancient yarn
And perhaps that’s why they’re so forlorn

They’ve long been living in a land
Where they were the ones with the upper hand
But like so many grains of sand
Others have begun to expand
So my question is can’t we all just get along
Am I day dreaming could I be wrong
United we stand - together we're strong
But I thought you knew that all along
