Kid Creole And The Coconuts - Young, Gifted and White

Текст песни

You see I’m hip, I’m legit, and I come from Copenhagen
I’m bold and I’m fit, do a whole lot of shakin'
And when I catch a groove that I like I can take it all night long
You see I’m made in the shade and you know my mission
I got accolades for my style and my vision
And when I get the mood, they know it’s a mission all night long
I’m young and I’m gifted
And in case you missed it
I’m white
(Say, what?)
I’m young and I’m gifted
And in case you missed it
I’m white
You see I’m in a big band, and on top of that I’m pretty
I play an event, people tell me that I’m witty
And when I make a move I can sing that diddy all night long
I’m young and I’m gifted
And in case you missed it
I’m white
(Say, what?)
I’m young and I’m gifted
And in case you missed it
I’m white
You see the music is my life
And I got that appetite
For the jazz and the soul and the rhythm and blues
And the rock and roll
I like Aretha, and Tina, I even like Shania
And Britney, and Whitney and even some Mariah
Queen Celine had a groove, well maybe
I like Madonna, and Nora and even some Shakira
Ashante, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera
Well they tried something, they ain’t got nothing on me
You see the music is my life
And I got that appetite
For the jazz and the soul and the rhythm and blues
And the rock and roll
You see I’m pert and alert
And I got myself a posse
I’m free as a bird and I’m ready for the party
When I hit the stage you can bet I’m in the starring role
You see I’m hip, I’m legit, and I come from Copenhagen
I’m bold and I’m fit, do a whole lot of shakin'
And when I catch a groove that I like I can take it all night long
I’m young and I’m gifted
And in case you missed it
I’m white
(Say, what?)
I’m young and I’m gifted
And in case you missed it
I’m white
I like Aretha, and Tina, I even like Shania
And Britney, and Whitney and even some Mariah
Queen Celine had a groove, well maybe
I like Madonna, and Nora and even some Shakira
Ashante, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera
Well they tried something, they ain’t got nothing on me
