about as yellow as they come.

I’m about as yellow as they come.

You’d think so, looking at me, with my slanty eyes and

my black hair.


I’m about as yellow as they come.

It doesn’t matter that I was born in this country, or

that I’ve lived here my whole life.


I’m about as yellow as they come.

Don’t worry about where my parents were born or where their parents were born

(because we all look the same anyway),

it doesn’t matter anyway,

because you know,

you probably saved my country in that war.


I’m about as yellow as they come.

I’m practicing saying it in un-accented English so

you’ll understand me completely.


I’m about as yellow as they come.

And anyway,

I’m sure it doesn’t matter what I look like on the inside.
