Lyrics
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
And I know all the things you find
Even though it's a good disguise
And I see all the things you do
And what you do will come back to you
You think we can't fight
What the eyes can't see?
Because you think we are blind
In poverty
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
It's like you want see the people rebel
And fire gunshots and burn buildings to hell, oh
And after that you a go want treat me well
It's like you have the people under spell, oh
Talking to the people in a congress
Vote you in, so you better do your best, oh
After all, no contest
It's the State of the Union address
(Oh I, oh I, oh I, oh I)
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
(Oh I, oh I)
Broadcasting lies
On the television screen
Trying to get us hooked
On your American dream
Up on your games
If you know wha' you mean
When you cheated on your wife
With your monies and your scheme
People rule and a that you fi follow
We are no fool and no call me no nigga
Do a good term and you deserve another
Signed musically yours, the General Sleepywonder
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
People inna misery
Government a work
But government
Them is a mockery
Respect to the youths
Whether in front in
Or di back a me
Why don't you treat dem
Like the way you should?
