태어날 때부터 내 피부는 검은 색                                  
WHEN I BORN, I BLACK 
자라서도 검은 색                                                         
WHEN I GROW UP, I BLACK

태양아래 있어도 검은 색                                              
WHEN I GO IN SUN, I BLACK

무서울 때도 검은 색                                                     
WHEN I SCARED, I BLACK

아플 때도 검은 색                                                         
WHEN I SICK, I BLACK

죽을 때도 여전히 나는 한 가지 검은 색이랍니다               
AND WHEN I DIE, I STILL BLACK

그런데 백인들은요                                                         
AND YOU, WHITE FELLOW.

태어날 때는 핑크색이잖아요                                           
WHEN YOU BORN, YOU PINK

자라서는 흰색                                                                
WHEN YOU GROW UP, YOU WHITE

태양아래 있으면 빨간색                                                   
WHEN YOU IN SUN, YOU RED.

추우면 파란색                                                                 
WHEN YOU COLD, YOU BLUE.

무서울 때는 노란색                                                          
WHEN YOU SCARED, YOU YELLOW

아플 때는 녹색이 되었다가                                                
WHEN YOU SICK, YOU GREEN.

죽을 때는 회색으로 변하면서                                             
AND WHEN YOU DIE, YOU GRAY.

이래도 너는 나를 유색인종이라고 하는지?                          
AND YOU CALLING ME COLORED?
