[THE INTERLOCUTOR, spoken]
You’ll just have to wait, Haywood
(singing)
It’s gonna take time, Haywood
It’s gonna take time
We’ll put things to right, but not overnight
It’s gonna take time
You know that, way down deep inside
Most people are good
But sometimes the terrible things
That they say or they do
Can be terribly misunderstood
So give us some time, Haywood
And try to behave
Remember, it hasn’t been so many years
Since your grandad was only a slave
In some future, a very bright negro like you
Well, I’d say there’s no knowing how high hе might climb
But Haywood, you’ll just have to wait
It’s gonna take time
[HAYWOOD, spoken]
Wait? How can I wait?! I did nothin’ but wait thinkin’ this day, nеxt day, next week, somethin’ gonna change! Hopin’! But what good is hopin’ when the same high minded people keep tellin’ the same low minded lies?
[THE INTERLOCUTOR, spoken]
Now Haywood...
(singing)
Maybe someday the world will be made up of saints
And for everyone, life will be truly sublime
But try to be patient for now
It’s gonna take time
