Lyrics:Ub40 Music:Ub40 | |
WRITE OFF THE DEBT (Chorus) | |
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 (Chorus) | |
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! |
