Miracle - Living Room

this song was written with poet D-Knowledge.
Headline:
Another Church Is Burned!
Triple K Membership Increased Threefold!
Anti-Jewish/Anti-Muslim/Anti-Immigrant/Anti-Everybody Sentiments on the Rise!
Another King Is Beaten!
Another X is marked!
Another Riot Has Occurred!

But
Stop the stress
Or...what do they say
Stop the press

Let’s turn off the 5 o’clock/6 o’clock/7 o’clock bad news
Let’s shred the no-good news newspapers
Let’s gag/mute/and shut up the talk/talk/talk
(What ya talkin’ about?)
Talk shows
Let’s stop the stress and the press
And tune into the twenty-four-hour miracle network

And at the top of our news
A rainbow has been reported on the playground
That’s right
There’s a rainbow of children
Runnin’/swingin’/jumpin’/climbin’/and just havin’ fun together
And the only race they know
Requires them to run
And to run fast (Tag, you’re it!)

And there’s harmony flowin’ in their games
And it’s a beautiful thing
And it’s a miracle
It’s a miracle

And our sources have revealed that
Two have climbed in love
He’s lavender and she’s turquoise
Or he has dots and she has stripes
Or she is blue and he’s blue too
Or he’s a he
And she’s a she
And it’s all cool
‘Cause they’re in love
Not in fever
Not in fashion
Two just in love

And your eyes may frown
But
Hey
LOVE HAPPENS!
And when it does
It’s a miracle
It’s a miracle

And this just in
Two old men meet on a young park bench
And feed the pigeons
And watch kids play
But mostly they share each other’s memories
And it doesn’t really matter that
One is Black and the other’s white
Or that thirty years earlier
The Black man couldn’t even pick up trash in this park
'Cos there are pigeons to feed
And kids to watch
And what matters is
They’re friends
And generations will be inspired
By this miracle
It’s a miracle

And
We interrupt this solo to let you know
That you are exquisite
That you are a rainbow
That Love Happens
And that life is
Quite magically a
Waterfall of miracles
