letra de pirates - leno banton
[chorus]
di ones who govern the land, say dem a pirate
claim say dem a politician, but dem a pirate
wid all a di big business plan, say dem a pirate
pirate, pirate, pirate, aye
[verse 1]
regular mi sit down and a pree
all wah the preacher preach say dem thief
a nuh just man, capital or land, my lord
no, dem thief we belief
still we traumatised, still unorganised
since dem carry ones over the seas
lies dem formalise and dem dramatize
yow, dem have it to a master degree
now we a slave fi a scholarship
so ironic, ’cause the cane field turn colleges
and my knowledge is
all dem a teach a slave master laws and policies
mental damages
brain get wash and dry till dem moral vanishes
still no apologies
the seed dem sow corrupt inna 14 parishes
[chorus]
di ones who govern the land, say dem a pirate
claim say dem a politician, but dem a pirate
wid all a di big business plan, say dem a pirate
pirate, pirate, pirate
di ones who govern the land, say dem a pirate
claim say dem a politician, but dem a pirate
wid all a di big business plan, say dem a pirate
pirate, pirate, pirate, aye
[verse 2]
fling tax pon the poor pon a daily
still dem work we, but nuh wah pay we
and from all a di funds circulating
our share gone inna dem life savings
while dem a sip champagne and bailey’s
egg and a quarter bread fi some belly
bumboclaat, yow a time fi changes
mi nah sing no “amazing grace’s”
nah, nah, because a dat dem sing
ketch the style, a disguise sinting
dem a pirate, upgrade the cloth pon skin
change the talk, but dem keep the thought
politician to people is a never win-win
promise they make never yet fulfil
we show dem the mind of selassie i still
mandy life grim and everybody just a bill
[chorus]
di ones who govern the land, say dem a pirate
claim say dem a politician, but dem a pirate
wid all a di big business plan, say dem a pirate
pirate, pirate, pirate
di ones who govern the land, say dem a pirate
claim say dem a politician, but dem a pirate
wid all a di big business plan, say dem a pirate
pirate, pirate, pirate, aye
[outro]
leno banton a tell unu straight
di whole a dem a pirate
dem nuh wah fly di gate, but
a great we great and we cyah underrate
dem style we as the worst, a di best come from the worst
light speed
