This was written by a black gentleman in Texas and is so funny. What a great sense of humor and creativity!!

Torque

When I was born, I was black,

When I grew up, I was BLACK

When I went in the sun, I stayed BLACK

When I got cold, I was BLACK

When I was scared, I was BLACK

When I was sick, I was BLACK

And when I die, I'll still be BLACK.

NOW, you "white" folks.....

When you're born, you're PINK

When you grow up, you're WHITE

When you go in the sun, you get RED

When you're cold, you turn BLUE

When you're scared, you're YELLOW

When you get sick, you're GREEN

When you bruise, you turn PURPLE

And when you die, you look GRAY.

So who y'all callin'

C O L O R E D folks?
