Write off the debt
|
Me say write off the debt
|
Me say write off the debt
|
And stop the third world a fret
|
|
I say the imf put on too much interest
|
Certain man pon the streets can't even buy a little vest
|
I said the east and the west them just a build up dem chest
|
Certain man in the third world can't even digest, a little food
|
But no bother take them man deh as no fool
|
Cos' you know say dem teach and go a good school
|
Me say lord a god a mercy dem learn up all the rules
|
So no bother patronise dem cos all dem need is the tools
|
Me say over the millennium me say what a bomb
|
Me say a whole heap of right
|
Me say a whole heap of wrong
|
I say it's time to come together and sing we own song
|
And make the shooting and all the killing and the fighting
|
Have fe done
|
I say the imf wipe off the lump sum
|
You know say me bredren that would a handsome
|
So come on fe me posse lets rehearse up this song
|
And hope say dem man yah don't take too long
|
|
Me say write off the debt
|
Me say write off the debt
|
And stop the third world a fret
|
|
Picture a world with no more hurt and pain
|
Picuture a world where we are all the same
|
Maybe not in mind but in spirit
|
Must do the right thing to ease the pain
|
|
Yes me breden that would a wicked!
