Testo Discrimination - Macka B

Testo della canzone Discrimination (Macka B), tratta dall'album Discrimination

What a terrible and wicked act
The plane come from Jamaica to London
And dem send some of the people back
It's discrimination against Jamaicans by the immigration inna England
Watch this!
Discrimination against Jamaican
By the immigration dem inna England
Discrimination against Jamaican
By the immigration dem inna England
It's not right, it's Jamouta order
Shoulda never put dem in detention center
Shoulda never send the people back to Jamaica
If they was white, would you let them come over?
When a plane load arrive from Australia
Dem no lock dem up inna detention center
When a plane load come from Scandinavia
Dem no lock dem up inna detention center
But dem a say, "No, no, no"
To Jamaicans, "No, no, no"
Dem a say, "No, no, no"
To Jamaicans, "No, no, no"
Dem a say, "No, no, no"
To Jamaicans, "No, no, no"
A just discrimination against Jamaican
By the immigration dem inna England
Discrimination against Jamaican
By the immigration dem inna England
One time dem a beg we fi come over
Fi build up the country, and do the hard labor
We done build it up, do dem a big favor
Now dem a come with dem alms house behavior
Cah, anytime a plane land from Jamaica
Customs officers line up like soldier
All the black people, dem call dem over
Mi know say a true, cah mi take the plane regular
Dem angle you rough, treat you like thief
And some of dem even look inna your brief
And all the white people on the plane with you
Long, long time the whole of dem gone through
Dem a say, "No, no, no"
To Jamaicans, "No, no, no"
Dem a say, "No, no, no"
To Jamaicans, "No, no, no"
Dem a say, "No, no, no"
To Jamaicans, "No, no, no"
Discrimination against Jamaican
By the immigration dem inna England
Discrimination against Jamaican
By the immigration dem inna England
England started the commonwealth
Robbed a lot of countries of their wealth
Then they give dem independence and put dem on the shelf
Leaving their economies inna bad health
England say, dem a the mother country
But, how can a mother reject her baby?
If dem don't want fi see more and more yardie
Dem fi give back Jamaica some of dem money
Now, just imagine if Jamaica did do the same
The same thing with the English plane
All of the plane dem well land at Kingston
Get all of the white man and white woman
And put dem inna room fi interrogation
And ask dem about a thousand question
And if fi any reason dem get one wrong
Send dem back pon the next airplane to London
Europe or America, dem woulda take action
Dem woulda start talk 'bout sanction
But, true a white man a do it to a black man
Nobody don't give a damn
Discrimination against Jamaican
And you know say, when mi say, "Jamaican"
Mi mean black African Jamaican
Cah, if dem were white, dem mighta alright, see?
