Run and Tell That lyrics

[SEAWEED]
Hey
I can't see why people look at me
And only see the color of my face, oh yeah
And then there's those that try to help, God knows
But always have to put me in my place
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 (Run and tell that)
Oh sugar, run and tell that (Run and tell that)

Hey, yeah
I can't see why people disagree
Each time I tell them what I know is true, no, no
And if you come and see the world I'm from
I bet your heart is gonna feel it too, yeah
But I could lie but baby, let's be bold
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
And that's where it's at
Oh, baby, baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Oh sugar, go run and tell that (Run and tell that)
G-g-go on and run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Hey, yeah-yeah, run and tell, go tell (Run and tell that)
Keep moving, baby, run and tell that
Hey, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Hey, woo, ooh-ooh
(spoken)
Come here, girl. This is my sister Little Inez
[LITTLE INEZ, spoken]
Oh, I know Tracy Turnblad. Good for you, girl, you got on the show!

[TRACY, spoken]
Well, you better be next!

[LITTLE INEZ, spoken]
You got that right!

[SEAWEED, spoken]
Oh you know she is. You better show 'em, girl...

[LITTLE INEZ, (ENSEMBLE)]
I'm tired of coverin' up all my pride
(So give me five on the black-hand side)
I've got a new way of movin' and I got my own voice
(So how can I help but to shout and rejoice?)
Oh, the people 'round here can barely pay their rent
They're tryin' to make dollar out o' fifteen cent
But we got a spirit money just can't buy
It's deep as a river, it soars to the sky, to the sky

[SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE]
Hey, I can't see the reason it can't be
The kinda world that where we all get our chance, aw yeah
The time is now, so we can show 'em how
Just turn the music up and let's all dance, yeah
'Cause all things are equal when it comes to love
Well, that ain't quite true 'cause when a push comes to shove
The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice (Uh-huh)
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, baby, baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Aw baby, go run and tell that (Run and tell that)
G-g-g-g-go on girl, and run and tell that
That, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Woo
