When We're Happy We Laugh
Traditional South African Lyrics
The Uncle Brothers
People are people no matter how they look
even if they read from a different book
we all have blood and we all have bones
we all have dreams that we call our own
There are so many places where we all come from
there are thousands of languages from billions of tongues
But when we're hungry we eat when we're tired we sleep
when we're cold we put something on our hands and feet
In school we try when we're bored we sigh
When we're happy we laugh and when we're sad we cry
Everyone is special wherever you go
we all share something amazing you know
We're all connected by the magic inside
So get to know someone before you decide
There are so many places where we all come from
there are thousands of languages from billions of tongues
You always hear how different we are
it's true me and you are like the moon and the stars
people of every colored skin
all breathe the same air in
There are so many places where we all come from
there are thousands of languages from billions of tongues
