BLACK OR WHITE, 1
DGGGDGGGD ~ (4 x)
D
1. I took my baby on a Saturday bang,
Boy is that girl with you ? Yes, we're one and the same.
G
Now I believe in miracles,
DGGGDGGGD ~
and a miracle has happened tonight.
A
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G DGGGDGGGD ~ (2x)
it don't matter if you're black or white.
D
2. They print my message in the Saturday Sun,
I had to tell them, I ain't second to none.
G
And I told about equality,
DGGGDGGGD ~
and it's true, either you're wrong or you're right.
A
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G DGGGDGGGD ~ (4x)
it don't matter if you're black or white.
D \
I`m tired of this devil, I`m tired of this stuff,
\ \ G D
I`m tired of this business, so when the going gets rough.
D \
I ain't scared of your brother, I ain't scared of no sheets,
\ \ G D
I ain't scared of nobody, girl when the goin' gets mean.
BLACK OR WHITE, 2
3. (rapping) in D
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations,
causing grief in human relations.
It's a turf war on a global scale,
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale.
See, it's not about races, just places, faces.
Where your blood comes from is where your space is.
I've seen the bright get duller,
I'm not going to spend my life being a color.
G
Don't tell me you agree with me,
DGGGDGGGD ~
when I saw you kicking dirt in my eye.
A
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G DGGGDGGGD ~
it don't matter if you're black or white.
A
I said, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G DGGGDGGGD ~
it don't matter if you're black or white.
A
I said, if you're thinkin' of being my brother,
G DGGGDGGGD ~
it don't matter if you're black or white.
DGGGDGGGD ~ ..... (rep. and fade)

| "i think u r all lame he wrote it 4 other reasons look it up he is black with virtigo yes he tried to smooth it out with bleach but u wouldn't know any thing about Michael cuz ur coming up w/ lame shit it" Are you sure you don't mean Vitiligo? Hmm? Don't think you can cure Vertigo with bleach. MJ is a bit of a joke these days, but this song was from when he was still pretty cool. I wish people would stop looking at his "freakishness" and concentrate on his music. Oh wait, maybe they do. That's why he's not popular any more cos his music's gone down the pan. The last good one he had that I liked was You Are Not Alone, and when was that? Like 1997 or something? The only reason he keeps going is so one day he can get an award for being in music for however many decades, when actually his new stuff doesn't even count. Fantastic in his time, but not any more. | |

| I used to like Michael Jackson. I highly anticipated his "Dangerous" album when it cam out, but this song changed my opinion. The lyrics have a good message... we should accept people for who they are, not what they look like or where they're from... but really, I can't stand listening to the music! Part of it is angry, part is light-hearted. There's no continuity! Oh, and I don't need to say anything about the lame video, do I? | |

| Great and great video. Even though he is a strange guy now, he was a great performer. I rather care about his music than his personal life. I love watching his videos, but sometimes I wish the old michael Jackson never changed! He should have stopped around the time the "black and white" video was made, as far as changing his appearance goes. Poor guy..but yea..great song! | |

| I like the song...but I'm very confused about the opening, with the kid listening to music. Is it something about the theme of the album? | |
