Something's growing on your toes 
It's covering your knees and nose 
It's stretching up and down your back 
I have a creepy feeling that 
It likes to breathe through sweaty pores 
It feels so close, but wait, there's more 
It's wrapping all around your arms 
Is this cause to be alarmed?

Chorus: 
Stretching all around you 
very tightly holds you in 
Skin, you and me have skin 
You and me have 
Epi epi epidermis, epi epi epidermis 
That is what is on the surface 
Nothing you need hide 
Epi epi epidermis, epi epi epidermis 
Skin is just a cover 
Protecting what's inside

You'll never have a better skin 
than the one you're living in 
It's just your size, dark or light 
Your birthday suit fits you just right 
Everybody from the start 
is such a gorgeous work of art 
Every freckle, every pore 
Is no one else's, only yours

Chorus

It's waterproof and tailored well 
A custom fit in every cell 
Color comes to you and me 
From something called heredity 
Black or red, brown or white 
Any color's quite all right 
We are all the same relation 
Having different pigmentation 
Color, it's color 
Underneath the skin you'll find 
Our color in the same inside

Chorus

Black or red, brown or white 
Any color's quite all right!
