letra de poor man's place - turbulence
[intro]
no more sufferation
pains my heart, see my mother cry
it really pains my heart
oh yeah, oh yeah
[verse 1]
joy for them when christmas comes around
but on the poor man’s face wears a frown
system designed to make the poor man drown
every single t’ing we try we still going down
eh, to be poor is a crime
even when we try to shine
work everyday and we nuh get a dime
[chorus]
tell me what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
[verse 2]
just look at them
only the poor man bears the pain
they tek poor people for clown
like we not a part of the human race, yeah
food a’ share but we nuh get a taste
and them tie we foot so we can’t win di race
a’ nuff house deh yah but we no have a place
them promise we prosperity we can’t find the trace
but remember they need our votes
tell them stop treat we like seh we a rammed out, yeah
this is what we figure out
they want we stay in a permanent drought
[chorus]
but what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
[verse 3]
justice for them but there’s no justice for us
them gi’we di stardust and say buss dis for us
and they will say ashes to ashes and dust is to dust
they no want we stay indigenous, yeah
they figure us inferior
a ghetto yute can’t walk peacefully inna resdiential area
oh yeah, give us a break
all that we can take, we have
[chorus]
what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
what about the poor man’s place?
there’s no laughter on the poor man’s face
[outro]
joy for them when christmas come around
on the poor man’s face wears a frown
system designed to make the poor man drown
every single t’ing we do we still going down
to be poor is a crime
