Someday we'll have one extra coastline
   We'll tire of the Atlantic
   By then we'll be rid of your lot
   A shot heard 'round the world will soon be shot, will soon be shot
  
   'Til then have some tea and tobacco
   Hey Jenny meet your master
   Be nice, show him kindness and such
   Be kind to our master
  
   But a feeling is a-brewing that we don't need any masters
   'Cause we all can be a master and we all can be a king
  
   We speak and we sing the way that you do
   And showed you our hospitality on parade
   But now we are we, we're no longer you
   Tara to that hospitality on parade
  
   Today you're going to find their descendants
   In places all around you
   You're faced with the easiest task
   How best to act a king when always treated like a king
  
   Lunch counters, at banks and the theatre
   Kind help right there to serve you
   Men selling, and girls selling too
   And everyone's special
  
   We all are someone special
   Yes, we all are someone special
   For we all are someone special
   Where the customer is king
  
   Whoever you are, whoever you bring
   You'll find that hospitality on parade
   However you look, you're always a king
   Wherever there's hospitality on parade
  
   I'm special, you're special
   He's special, she's special
   We're all someone special
   And I am the king
  
   (Chorus)
  
   Whoever you are, whoever you bring
   You'll find that hospitality on parade
   However you look, you're always a king
   Where ever there's hospitality on parade
