Take a pinch of white man
Wrap him up in black skin
Add a touch of blue blood
And a little bitty bit of red Indian boy
Curly Latin kinkies
Mixed with yellow Chinkees, yeah
You know you lump it all together
And you got a recipe for a get along scene
Oh what a beautiful dream
If it could only come true, you know, you know

What we need is a great big melting pot
Big enough enough enough to take
The world and all its got And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more
And turn out coffee coloured people by the score

Rabbis and the friars
Vishnus and the gurus
We got the Beatles or the Sun God
Well it really doesn't matter what religion you choose
And be thankful little Mrs. Graceful
You know that livin' could be tasteful
We should all get together in a lovin machine
I think I'll call up the queen
It' s only fair that she knows, you know, you know

What we need is a great big melting pot
Big enough enough enough to take
The world and all its got And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more
And turn out coffee coloured people by the score

Those who are disturbed by the lyrics illustrate how pc concerns have completely clouded any appreciation of a really pure sentiment: Let's all get along, that's all they're saying. And ok, the language of '73 or '74 or whenever was less sensitive but that was then when we were less hung up on minutea. Bruce Lee said "Don't think. Feel. It is like a finger pointing the way to the moon. Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenl

  • The favourite song of Enoch Powell!

  • White niggaluvvas.

  • my sociology book got me here :P

  • Way aye Mr Partridge welcime back.

  • one of my fave. whatever our religion is......we are the same races

  • The lyrics ARE cringeworthy .....but the intention was clearly positive!

  • @currantcake no, I can assure you there was no racism intended, it was the same as Greyhound's " Black and White", same vibe, man - check that one out - another great 70s hit

  • @Heavensent1972 that's a shame, it really wasn't meant that way, UK was a very different place in those days

  • Nice song, we lost great emotion like this one today!

  • i always wondered what Partridge was on about, classic!
