Dem Story - Junior Kelly

Fire we deh blaze from long time

Every burned out fire 'pon Bablyon

We com' from 'bustion fi

Fire we de blaze from from long time

Ca' we burn down out di hypocrite di parasite di sign

Ca' we sicka dem story, dem story, (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Sicka dem story, we sicka dem story (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Sicka dem story, we sicka dem story (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Sicka dem story, we sicka dem story (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Promises, promises is all dem giving

Say dem ready now to help us and dem willing

But all I see is just senseless killing

And di youth dem out deh scraping for the shilling

Youth dem graduate and cyaan get no employment

No money no inna dem pocket dem cyaan get no enjoyment

But its easier for a dry tree to bear a fruit

Than for dem heathen here to tell di youth di truth

So mi sicka dem story, dem story, (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Sicka dem story, mi sicka dem story (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Sicka dem story, mi sicka dem story (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Sicka dem story, mi sicka dem story (iy, iy, iy, iy)

Babylon only take away

Only know to substract

Yes we sick up, we sick up

Mr. Fat Cat, Mr. Fat Rat

Only comi here so and a take mi people for idiot

Dem a curse!

cause every ting dem say woulda get better get worse

No build up no hospital

Dem no build up no training school

No build up no factory fi di youth dem govern and rule

Nuclear armament is what dem invest in

Have di youth dem stressing from the start the end back to the beginning

No road;

no light;

not a water inna mi pipe

Mi no waan no hear no bag-a-talk

When hungry ah twist up mi tribe

Babylon rude when dem divide

So I’m running for my life

Mi nuh go stay here and pay the price

('cause)
