Bootsy Collins - Welcome to Diverse City lyrics

They call us Diverse City, we're colorful good It's like a freak show in your neighborhood So, if you wanna praise you can come on down Cause this freak show's leaving the ground Up, up and away, baby we don't play, maybe you thought you was done for the day He said, she said, I said this, that you can't get away from your moment of bliss Stirring, we'll lure you in and we'll make room for the shade of skin Short ones, tall ones, skinny ones, bigger, love is the gun and we pullin' that trigger So you send me and I'll send you hope in the form of a new tattoo Mine is the shiny city on a hill and yours, of course, is the colors that fill it We'll take you high, we'll take you higher Now come to the city where you can praise If you're black, if you're white, if you're yellow or grey In the morning, in the night, anytime of day What's that place - Diverse City With curls in your hair and braids on the side Straight shake'em loose, just come on and ride We're a body with parts, like you and me Together we make diversity Welcome to Diverse City, we're colorful good It's like a freak show in your neighborhood So, if you wanna praise you can come on down Cause this freak show's leaving the ground Said we're Diverse City, we're colorful goods It's just a state of mind, we gonna shine the way that we should, baby So, if you wanna praise you can come on down Cause this freak show's leaving the ground You bring the heart, I'll bring the soul I'll bring the flag, you bring the pole We'll fly it high so the whole world knows The dream of a king 'bout to unfold We 'bout to do this thing for real Diverse City got ma** appeal So put your hand in the hand of mine And we'll spread this love like dandelions
