Letra

0:21His mother had told him when he was just young

0:25There'll be things you can do

0:27But some can't be done

0:30And you won't be able to always have fun

0:34'Cause your color is black

0:36And some won't accept that

0:38And oh dear what can the matter be

0:42Oh dear what can the matter be

0:47Oh dear what can the matter be

0:57Now time moves on and the world moves fast

1:01No time for flowers

1:03No place to grow grass

1:05There's no fishing hole where he used to go

1:09Just a four story factory with billows of smoke

1:13And oh dear what can the matter be

1:18Oh dear what can the matter be

1:23Oh dear what can the matter be

1:32Complications have grown from society's rot

1:36Their ideas keep moving

1:38But the old way's still taught

1:40Though his mind is his own

1:42It seems all that he's got

1:45Six months in jail for just smoking pot

1:49And oh dear what can the matter be

1:53Oh dear what can the matter be

1:58Oh dear what can the matter be

His mother had told him when he was just young
There'll be things you can do
But some can't be done
And you won't be able to always have fun
'Cause your color is black
And some won't accept that
And oh dear what can the matter be
Oh dear what can the matter be
Oh dear what can the matter be
Now time moves on and the world moves fast
No time for flowers
No place to grow grass
There's no fishing hole where he used to go
Just a four story factory with billows of smoke
And oh dear what can the matter be
Oh dear what can the matter be
Oh dear what can the matter be
Complications have grown from society's rot
Their ideas keep moving
But the old way's still taught
Though his mind is his own
It seems all that he's got
Six months in jail for just smoking pot
And oh dear what can the matter be
Oh dear what can the matter be
Oh dear what can the matter be
