Greedy Babylon |
| Now let Jah rise and all enemies be scattered |
| Like the wax that melteth before the fire |
| So melt them away oh Jah |
| Because we living in a world where neglect is prevalent |
| With a lot of moral cavaliers and less diligent |
| Me see more ties severing daily |
| None a mend |
| Oh thanks to this egotistic government |
| The messages they send via what they reconmmend |
| Is I and I a prove seh the fools devil sent |
| But oh what a sittn when the utes start vent |
| Demise face all who fail to repent |
| Dutty Babylon you greedy |
| Robbing from the needy |
| Make we life so hard |
| Selassie know you not easy |
| Dutty Babylon you sleezy |
| Robbing from the needy |
| Make we life so hard |
| Selassie know you not easy |
| But I know that it won’t be long |
| Before the children stand up strong |
| I know it won’t be long |
| Before the children stand as one |
| A desperation on the face of the devastated youth |
| Who a look a brighter day |
| But simply can’t find the route |
| Government a contribute to the many destitute |
| Cause the things they institute only please but a few |
| Offended by them style and unpleasant attritubes |
| Startled by the things they do to keep we pon a mute |
| Commenting on the things which they know not about |
| The amount of times them disappoint the natty |
| Can’t even count |
| Dutty Babylon you greedy |
| Robbing from the needy |
| Make we life so hard |
| Selassie know you not easy |
| Dutty Babylon you sleezy |
| Robbing from the needy |
| Make we life so hard |
| Selassie know you not easy |
| But I know that it won’t be long |
| Before the children stand up strong |
| I know it won’t be long |
| Before the children stand up strong |
| A coulda what the utes dem do |
| Mek them a treat we so bad |
| Why is it they want to take away |
| The little that we have |
| The rich a rob the poor |
| It hurt mi heart fi see that |
| Cause everybody know there is enough |
| Fi all glad |
| The gluttonous and the covitous |
| Just a scheme and a plot |
| Fi confine the utes weh a try counteract |
| The folly them promote |
| And all the rubbish them a chat |
| But soon and very soon |
| There will be no holding back |
| Dutty Babylon you greedy |
| Robbing from the needy |
| Make we life so hard |
| Selassie know you not easy |
| Dutty Babylon you sleezy |
| Robbing from the needy |
| Make we life so hard |
| Selassie know you not easy |
| But I’m warning you it won’t be long |
| Before the children stand up strong |
| I know it won’t be long |
| Before the children stand as one |
