Pulverize The Color Barrier Lyrics

SARAH
Andreo has a first name,
A-N-D-R-E-O . . .
Andreo has a second name,
N-I-K-O-L-A-O . . .
When people ask me for the longest name I ever knew,
I'll tell them what I know is true,
It's S-M-I-T-H-M-O-O-R-E-B-R-O . . .
MELANIE
"Pulverize the Color Barrier"?
Alan says that he loves
Everyone he may find;
But his love's just aesthetic;
It's all in his mind!
PAUL
I see Melanie, so romantic and light;
Hakeem's so romantic and dark, if that be spoken;
It's a shame that he's Black and she was born White;
By Pittman their pair will be surely upbroken!
HAKEEM
Ah, Pittman, what a principal,
An anachronistic shame;
We all know him and hate him,
They say the Nazis' hate is just the same.
PITTMAN
They say my racism is bad,
But isn't anti-racism, too?
BLUMBERG
Face it, it's not because you're racist,
It's because you're you!
