I know so many white people
I meanwhere do I start?
the trouble with white people
is you can t tell them apart
I m so bad with names and dates and times
but I m big on faces
that isexcept for mine

I believe you when you tell me
we ve met before
this time you ve got my interest
this time you ve got the floor
why don t you go and tell me something
I don t already know
give me something to remember you by
when you go

I eat too much
I laugh too long
maybe I ll like too much of you
when I m gone

let s go over to the window
and sit in the neon light
let s go out walking
you knowit s garbage night
let s go down to the east river
and throw something in
something we can t live without
and then let s start again

the more you talk
the more I get
the sense of something
that hasn t happened yet
the more you talk
the more I want to know
the way I ll remember you
when I go

I eat too much
I laugh too long
maybe I ll like too much of you
when I m gone

I am so many white people
I mean where do I start
they ve got lots of personalities
I just can t tell them apart
and I never remember anything
except for those things
which I never forget you know
there s no in between

I m big on your face
yeah it s big in my mind
you re like the rest of the human race
you re one of a kind
