Third World: You're Playing Us Too Close
Music and Lyrics by Stevie Wonder
Jobless people starving babies spreading
over the land
More oppression to the have nots is how you
play your hand
More world fighting is the writing from those
say they know
And if that's true we know just who
you'll be picking to go
But the beat you are playing to what Jah is
saying is wrong
And we do recommend that you stop before
it's too far gone
And I just got to say
You're playing us too close
We in the ghettos
You're playing us too close
The jobless and the hungry
You're playing us too close
Filling up more and more with Frustration
You're playing us too close
We're losing our patience
So take heed and do let it be known that
I've told you today
You're playing us much too close yea
All the teaching of JAH bible you don't
want to obey
But you're writing your own ticket to the price
you will pay
Us you hold hock but the drawback is not
to us alone
Time will make you too a victim before you
see the wrong
And the melody that you are playing is
in the wrong key
For Jah's choirs that sings out to all live
in world harmony
And I just got to say
You're playing us too close
We in the ghettos
You're playing us too close
Red black white brown and yellow poor people
You're playing us too close
The babies are crying
You're playing us too close
Good people are dying
So take heed and do let it be known that
I've told you today
Jah say you're playing us much too close
Now when I was just a little boy my grandfather
use to say to me, "Brother B, trust no shadow
after dark... "It's not till I grew to be a man that
I understand what the old brother was talking
about. You see some people take the liberty to
treat you any way they want to, they feel
some times that you don't have no dignity. But
brother fire de ah mus mus tail him think ah
cool breeze, better watch out easy squeeze
makes no riot my brethren
You're playing us much too close, so why the
Don't you people out there all get up off your
backsides and do something for the worlds for
every living boy, woman, man and girl. There's
hungry people all over starving, have no place
to lay their heads Huh Don't play us so close
Don't play us so close Don't play us so close
(Chorus during rap)
Some a dem rap, none a dem a holler
'Cause Jah say all the musicians shall be there
The players on instruments shall gather
at His feet
You need to raise your conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
We need to raise our conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
You need to raise your conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
(Percussion)
We're gonna raise our conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
I'm gonna raise my conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
We're gonna raise our conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
You've gotta raise your conscious high
So Jab Jah Love can rule the world
I'm gonna raise my conscious high
So Jah Jah Love can rule the world
Jobless people starving babies spreading
over the land
More oppression to the have nots is how you
play your hand
More world fighting is the writing from those
say they know
And if that's true we know just who
you'll be picking to go

Co ja robię tu
Lanberry
„Dzisiaj znowu nad Warszawą, wisi parę ciemnych chmur. Myślami zawieszona, ciągle tone w tych ramionach, męczy mnie zepsuty mood. Pora zmierzyć sobie puls, i odpuścić może już. Jesteś ciągle ”
