Many of our students love to sing -- it's a fun and entertaining way to learn English. Through melody and choral repetition, our students have a great time improving their pronunciation and speaking out. This semester, we will learn and sing some classic rock and pop songs.
Why Can't We Be Friends?
by the rock band War, 1975
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I seen you 'round for a long long time,
I really 'membered you when you drink my wine,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I seen you walkin' down in Chinatown,
I called you but you could not look around,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I bring my money to the welfare line,
I see you standing in it every time,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
The color of your skin don't matter to me,
As long as we can live in harmony,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I'd kinda like to be the President,
so I can show you how your money's spent,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Sometimes I don't speak too bright,
but yet I know what I'm talking about,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I know you're working for the CIA,
They wouldn't have you in the Mafia,
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
