Run And Tell That Paroles

But i won't ask you to be color blind
'Cause if you pick the fruit
Then girl, you're sure to find...
The blacker the berry
The sweeter the juice
I could say it ain't so
But darlin', what's the use?
The darker the chocolate
The richer the taste
And that's where it's at...
Now baby run and tell that!!
DETENTION KIDS
Run and tell that!
SEAWEED
Oh sugar, run and tell that!
DETENTION KIDS
Run and tell that!
SEAWEED
I can't see why people disagree
Each time I tell them what I know is true Vanilla can be nice
But if the truth be told...
The blacker the berry
The sweeter the juice
I could say it ain't so
But darlin', what's the use
The darker the chocolate
The richer the taste
That's where it's at
Oh baby, run and tell that!
DETENTION KIDS (repeat)
Run and tell that!
SEAWEED
Come on girl
This is my sister Li'l Inez!
LI'L INEZ
Oh I know Tracy Turnblad!
Good For you girl you got on the show!
TRACY
Well, you better be next
Li'L INEZ
You got that right
SEAWEED
Oh you know she is you better show em' girl!
LI'L INEZ
I'm tired of coverin' up all my pride
SEAWEED & DETENTION KIDS
So give me five on the black-hand side
LI'L INEZ
I've got a new way of movin'
And I got my own voice
SEAWEED & DETENTION KIDS
So how can I help
But to shout and rejoice
LI'L INEZ
The people 'round here
Can barely pay their rent
They're try'n to make dollar
Out 'a fifteen cent
But we got a spirit
Money just cant buy
It's deep as a river
And soars to the sky!
SEAWEED
I cant see
The reason it cant be
The kinda world where we all get our chance
The time is now
And we can show ?em how
To turn the music up and let's all dance
'Cause all things are equal
When it comes to love
Well, that ain't quite true
'Cause when push comes to shove...
The blacker the berry
The sweeter the juice
I could say it ain't so
But darlin', what's the use
The darker the chocolate
The richer the taste
That's where it's at
SEAWEED & DETENTION KIDS
...Now run and tell that!
DETENTION KIDS (repeat)
Run and tell that!
