Original Broadway Cast of MJ - Finale (Jam / Black or White / Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’) lyrics

One, two, three, jam

Nation to nation
All the world must come together
Face the problems that we see then maybe
Somehow we can work it out
I asked my neighbor for a favor
She said later
What has come of all the people
Have we lost love of what it's about?
I have to find my peace 'cause no
One seems to let me be
False prophets cry of doom
What are the possibilities?
I told my brother there'd be problems
Times and tears for fears
But we must live each day like
It's the last, go with it, go with it

Jam it ain't
It ain't too much stuff it ain't too much
It ain't too much for me to jam
It ain't it ain't too much stuff
It ain't too much it ain't too much for me

Jam, jam, here comes the man hot damn
The big boy stands with an upper hand
Makin' funky tracks with my
Man Michael Jackson
Smooth criminal, that's the man
'cause Mike's so relaxed
Mingle, mingle, jingle in the jungle
Bum rushed the doors
Threes and fours in a bundle
Execute the plan
First I cooled it like a fan
Got with Janet, then with Guy
Now with Michael
'Cause it ain't too hard to jam

Ow!

I took my baby on a Saturday bang
Boy, is that girl with you? Yes
We're one and the same
Now, I believe in miracles
And a miracle has happened tonight (Hee hee)

But, if you're thinking about bein' my baby
It don't matter if you're Black or white

They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell 'em I ain't second to none
And I told 'em about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right
(Hee hee)

But, if you're thinking about my baby
It don't matter if you're Black or white

I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
So when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain't scared of no sheets
I ain't scared of nobody, girl
When the going gets mean

Don't tell me you agree with me
When I see you kicking dirt in my eye
(Hee hee)

Jam it ain't
It ain't too much stuff it ain't too much
It ain't too much for me to jam
It ain't it ain't too much stuff
It ain't too much it ain't too much for me

Jam, jam, here comes the man hot damn
The big boy stands with an upper hand
Makin' funky tracks with my
Man Michael Jackson
Smooth criminal, that's the man
'cause Mike's so relaxed
Mingle, mingle, jingle in the jungle
Bum rushed the doors
Threes and fours in a bundle
Execute the plan
First I cooled it like a fan
Got with Janet, then with Guy
Now with Michael
'Cause it ain't too hard to jam

Ow!
But, if you're thinking of being my brother
It don't matter if you're Black or white

I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
Too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
Too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)

Lift your head up high and
Scream out to the world
"I know I am someone
" so let the truth unfurl
No one can hurt you now
Because you know it's true
Yes, I believe in me, so do believe in you
Help me sing it
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah (Woo hoo)
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah
(Hoo hoo hoo)
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah (Woo hoo)
Ma ma-say, ma ma-sah, ma ma-coo-sah (yeah)

I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
