Mixin' the Colors

All across the continents

Everywhere a soul is sent

A new mix of the races is takin' place

It's what Hitler didn't like

And it makes a pretty sight

Just look at what you see on

Your MTV

Out on the edges they're

Mixin' the colors

Some they don't like it

But me I don't mind

In every city they're

Mixing the colors

Different shades for the whole countryside

If you leave the hate alone tonight

Music's gonna get you home tonight

If you leave the hate alone tonight

Music's gonna get you home tonight

Mixin'

They're mixin'

On the edges of the line

There's a different kind of kind

No one seems to claim for

The race war games

'Cause you don't have to choose sides

It just crucifies your mind

There's a hundred million ways

To live your life for yourself

Out on the edges they're mixin' the colors

Some they don't like it but me I don't mind

In every city they're mixin' the colors

Different shades for the whole countryside

I like the kids with the opened-up faces

I like the kids with the ways of their own

If you leave the hate alone tonight

Music's gonna get you home tonight

If you leave the hate alone tonight

Music's gonna get you home tonight

Mixin' the colors

Now a language that sounds new

Comes a-driftin' next to you

And the music that you hear is changin' too

Cuz they're mixin' the colors

Baby the colors
