Spreading faster than an eye can blink
So I had to sit down and take time to think
Of how to spread the word to people all across the land
To make sure they putting out a helping hand
Neneh Cherry know the story, so it must be told
About a group of people left in the cold
Caught by a plague slowly they fade
From an immune deficiency, you see, called "AIDS"
No knowledge of the facts, kept in the dark
Scolds my soul and it hurts my heart
The young and elderly just running blind
Hurts so bad they denied their own kind
Papa turned around and said, "That ain't mine"
It just made it worse for life on the line
And it's a shame to see a little child mature
Growing up knowing that there ain't no cure
I've got you under my skin, uh
I've got you under my skin
Pure pain you're givin' me
I've got you deep in the heart of me
Down so deep, you're really a part of me
I've got you, got you, got you under my skin
So I had to sit down and take time to think
