lucky dube - my brother my enemy
Your smiling cannot fool me no more
Your sweet talking cannot fool me no more
Cause I know about your cheating
Cause I know about you back biting
And I don't know what you know
And I have never been where you've been
And I certainly don't believe in what you Believe in
And I don't do what you do I'm a living witness, now I know that...
Chorus
Not every black man is my brother
Not every white man is my enemy
I've got no place in your world
And I've never been where you've been
And I don't know what you know
And I have never been where you've been
And I certainly don't believe in what
You believe in
And I don't do what you do
I'm a living witness, now I know that...
Chorus till fade...
lucky dube - god bless the women
In the middle of the night I heard her pray so bitterly
And so softly yeah...
She prayed for her children
She prayed for their education,
Then she prayed for the man

But there are those that we forget To praise
The women of this world.
They don't run from anything
They stand and fight for what's right
Chorus
Oh oh oh...
God bless the women
Even when times are so hard
They are so cool, calm and collected.
They don't run from anything,
They stand and fight
For what is right
They do not run from responsibilities
They stand and fight for what Is right
Chorus till fade...
lucky dube - house of exile
Freedom fighter
Standing on a mountain
In a foreign country
Trying to send a message
To his people,
Back in the ghetto
He had a home one time
Love of a girl
But he left that behind
Oh yes i can hear him clearly
As he whispers in the air
His voice came out loud and clear
All he asked for was a prayer
And as he turns to walk away he said
Chorus [3x]
I'm still here in the house of exile
For the love of the nation
Sun went down on the mountain
Birds flew back to their hiding places
Leaving him standing there like a telephone pole
In the still of the night
You and i dream
Dreaming of romeo & juliet
All he dreams about is the freedom of the nation
When everyman will be equal
In the eyes of the law
As he closes his eyes
For the last time he said again
Chorus [till fade]
lucky dube - political games
How do you feel when you lie?
Straight faced while people cry
How do you feel when you promise something
That you know you'll never do
Giving false hope to the people
Giving false hope to the underpriviledged
Do you really sleep at night?
When you know you're living a lie
To you it is just a job
To the people it hurts to the bone
Chorus
Ooh political games that they play x 4
What do you say to the orphans?
Of the women and men you sent to war
What do you say to the widows?
Of the men you sent to war
Telling them it is good for the country
When you know it's good for your ego
What a shame.
Do you really sleep at night?
When you know you're living a lie
You talking tough, you talking sincerely
Giving false hope to the infected
Giving false hope to the affected.
To you it is just a job
To the people it hurts to the bone.
Chorus
Ooh political games that they play
Reap till fade.
lucky dube - money money money
Don' t tell me love makes the world go round
That is how it used to be
So many years ago yeah

You can' t get no love without the dollar
You can' t get no justice without the dollar
So everything is.........
Chorus:
Money money money
Judge dread I know I' ve done something wrong here
And today you' re here
To put me away forever
But before you bring that hammer down

Than a rocket in my favour
Doesn' t matter what they say

Just look the other way
Like you always do
When you see......

lucky dube - changing world
Old man sitting by the side of the road
He's not watching the birds today
He's not watching the sunset like he always does
He's looking at the future
He has seen the past
School boy passes by interrupts his thoughts
He said sir, can you spare me a dollar
I got to make in time for my grade 8 class
I am fresh out of cigarettes
And I can't be late
The old man said
Chorus
The world is changing
Take your time, look around
Make the right decision
He has no crystal ball
But he sees the future
Doesn't like what he sees, but what can he do
Little girl passes by with a baby in her arms
He thinks it's her mother's
But no, it is her own
She's only twelve years old for crying out loud
With his trembling finger
He wipes away the tears
If this is the future, he doesn't wanna be part of it
Chorus
The world is changing
Take a time, look around
Make the right decision
Old man sitting by the side of his bed.
When he goes to sleep tonight
He won't have no sweet dreams
He'll be haunted by ghosts from the future
Welcome to the future.
lucky dube - truth in the world
I've been riskin' my life all these years
Protectin' you from all the wrongs you did, mon
I did all dis because of your promises
Promise me you will die when I die
Promise that when trouble comes my way
You're gonna be there
No matter when the devil comes
I know dat in a I and I door
You were not there to be found
When the devil comes knockin' in my door
You were not there to be found
The world is turning around
Yesterday becomes tomorrow
When life was said to be true
And truth said to be lies, yeah, yeah, yeah
No truth in the world
No truth in the world
Like a preacher in church
Who preaches until he's run down his face
And when the sun goes down he's holy again
When the sun goes down he's a witch
And he's doin' all dis in the way God wants it to be
The world is turning around
When today becomes tomorrow
When lies becomes truth
The future becomes the call
No truth in the world (Ya gone a mark ago)
No truth in the world (The truth is not truth)
No truth in the world (The world)
No truth in the world (Ya gone a mark)
No truth in the world (No truth in the world)
No truth in the world (When the man a pon get out the church)
No truth in the world (The preacher man acts just like a nice man)
No truth in the world (There is no truth)

And who I' ve been with

And all we wanna do
Just to have some fun

Where there' s pleasure
There will always be danger

Save us from the sins of the flesh
Things we have learned
From our good & loving parents
When temptation comes
It all becomes useless
Like an ashtray on a motorbike

It' s your life
It' s your world

lucky dube - life in the movies
Warning, this is the chief of police speaking,
Do not steal Police hate competition.
Where we gonna run
Where we gonna hide
You've got the right to remain silent,
But forever they were brought here to protect us
They were brought here not to hurt
But now they hurt us everyday
You see, police have joined forces
With criminals
Don't steal, police hate competition.
We can't sit down - something must be done
Catching the bad guys in real life
Is not as easy as it is in the movies.
We see James Bond (007)
Eddie Murphy (Beverly Hills Cop)
Chasing bad guys all the time
But police in real life
Have joined forces with criminals
Don't steal, police hate competition
We can't sit down - something must be done.
Our life has got to be like
Life in the movies
Where the good guys always
Win in the end
Chorus
Life in the movies
How can we expect them
To serve and protect
The community, if they themselves
Are the bad guys
Police have joined forces with criminals
Stand up and fight, no one is safe
Chorus till fade...
