Raisin In The Sun
Fizzgig McArthur
A raisin in the sun
by jesse weinberg
You live in a low class apartment
your life is goin' real bad
you sit around all day waitin' for a check
cause your living off of your Dad
When your dreams have all but been shattered
and the good times have not yet begun
you forget all the things that have mattered
and you feel like a raisin in the sun
Your son he sleeps on the sofa
and your mama she nags and she nags
when you and your wife are having a fight you get,
"hey Walter, eat your eggs"
Refrain
You can't move to the house that you want to
because of the color of your face
the people who think you are different
say you shouldn't move to this place
Refrain
When all you have left are your memories
and the dreams of a life yet to come
a taker, not a talker, breaks all of that
and you want your life to be done
Refrain (sung twice)
THE END
If you can, rent the movie it's based on (by the same title), or read the poem the movies based on (a dream deferred) by Langston Hughes. Also, my screenname is Fizzgig Mcarthur, if you want to IM me. Catch you later.
