Silver Tongue Show

Spit fire like dragon, thinking them can escape

The works of William Gordon

Dem fire as Judas come, thinking them can ride on

The words of Marcus Garvey

(Oh man de were) Filling up our heads with visions

While it's our souls on which they bargain

Live as they all live, blind as they are blind

They'll never know that, for this here price

We shall give our lives to them

Now did ya, did ya see dem ride into the war

Gone so long they call out to the one

Son I'm here for you they trapped him to belong,

When they were all

Standing at the foot of the moutain as we tried to

Warn them oh Jah Jah, we warn them

Still they come with their silver tongue show

Yes, and we chant them oh Rasta, we whant dem

They man come with their silver tongue show

(Good man say) You're just a string in the puppet show

Spit fire like dragon, thinking them can escape

The works of Mohandis Gandhi

Spit fire as Judas come, thinking them can destroy

The words of Bantu Biko

(Oh man de were) Filling up our heads with visions

While it's our souls 'pon which they bargain

Oh the crisis de man light, the fittest de man fight,

They'll never know that

For this here price, we shall give our lives to them

Now did ya, did ya see dem ride into the war

Conquered us so long they hold their head up high

As them pray on the poor and juvenile

When they were all standing at the foot of the mountain

As we tried to warn them oh Jah Jah, we warn them

Still they come with their silver tongue show

Yes, and we chant them oh Rasta, we chant them

They man come with their silver tongue show

Chant them down, chant them down no they'll never know

Warn them oh Jah Jah, we warn them

Still they come with their silver tongue show

Yes, and we chant them oh Rasta, we chant them

They man come with their silver tongue show

(Good man say) You're just a string in the puppet show
