rate me

Good evening mr.waldheim<br /> And pontiff how are you? <br /> You have so much in common<br /> In the things you do<br /> <br /> And here comes jesse jackson<br /> He talks of common ground<br /> Does that common ground include me<br /> Or is it just a sound<br /> <br /> A sound that shakes<br /> Oh jesse, you must watch the sounds you make<br /> <br /> A sound that quakes<br /> There are fears that still reverberate<br /> <br /> Jesse you say common ground<br /> Does that include the plo? <br /> What about people right here right now<br /> Who fought for you not so long ago? <br /> <br /> The words that flow so freely<br /> Falling dancing from your lips<br /> I hope that you don't cheapen them<br /> With a racist slip<br /> <br /> Oh common ground<br /> Is common ground a word or just a sound<br /> Common ground<br /> Remember those civil rights workers buried in the ground<br /> <br /> If I ran for president<br /> And once was a member of the klan<br /> Wouldn't you call me on it<br /> The way I call you on farrakhan<br /> <br /> And pontiff, pretty pontiff<br /> Can anyone shake your hand ? <br /> Or is it just that you like uniforms<br /> And someone kissing your hand<br /> <br /> Or is it true<br /> The common ground for me includes you too<br /> <br /> Oh, oh, is it true<br /> The common ground for me includes you too<br /> <br /> Good evening mr.waldheim<br /> Pontiff how are you<br /> As you both stroll through the woods at night<br /> I'm thinking thoughts of you<br /> <br /> And jesse you're inside my thoughts<br /> As the rhythmic words subside<br /> My common ground invites you in<br /> Or do you prefer to wait outside<br /> <br /> Or is it true<br /> The common ground for me is without you<br /> <br /> Or is it true<br /> The common ground for me is without you<br /> <br /> Oh is it true<br /> There's no ground common enough for me and you<br /><br />
