Je score:
I was an August baby Conceived by the Christmas lights I came into the world by the setting sun On a humid summer night When my grandmother held me for the very first time She thanked God I looked like my daddy And I never quite knew just what she meant But I knew she was a little too happy And now I see You can't change a stubborn mind You can't see the world if your eyes are blind What does it matter anyway In our darkest hour, we're all just shades of gray They got married in a tiny chapel, 1965 Malcolm X was on the radio when he took her as his wife And she looked so pretty that September day And her older brother cried as he gave her away And the minister looked like he didn't know what to say And then he spoke You can't change a stubborn mind You can't see the world if your eyes are blind What does it matter anyway In our darkest hour, we're all just shades of gray And when my grandmother held me for the very first time She thanked God, I looked like my daddy And I never gave a damn just what she meant But I knew she was a little too happy And now I see You can't change a stubborn mind You can't see the world if your eyes are blind What does it matter anyway In our darkest hour, we're all just shades of gray In our darkest hour, we're all just shades of Darkest hour, we're all just shades of gray It doesn't matter anyway Don't give a damn, don't give a damn Don't give a damn what they say We're all just shades of gray We're all just shades of gray Shades of gray
