Testo President - Benjamin Zephaniah
Testo della canzone President (Benjamin Zephaniah), tratta dall'album Revolutionary Minds
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
The president a mash up the people
The president a mash up the youth
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Them a mash up the truth
Earthquake a mash up the landscape
Missiles a mash up the scene
Colorless chemicals deep in the ocean
Them a mash up the green
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
Take the chalice and mash up the palace
Take some righteousness, take some time
Take some creative thoughts to some deep meditation
And mash up a wicked bassline
The DJ a mash up the rhythm
His lordship a mash up the manor
The singers and players, poets and soothsayers
Them a mash up the grammar
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
Dear Mr. President
A hummingbird tells me that your jails are full of activists
Activists that are full of life
The vendor who sold you that pretty work of art and your palace
Cannot sell you the silence of the earth community
Or a silent history of your deeds
How many prisoners' throats can you cut before you reach hell?
How many children can you stop from growing up?
Dear Mr. President
A hummingbird tells me that worms are eating you
You suck presidentially and the universe knows it
Bad night, Mr. President
Don't have faith
Don't hope and do not wish for forgiveness
Just run, run
Run as slowly as you can
And take your arms trade with you
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
The president a mash up the resident
The president a mash up the resident
So plenty resident turn dissident
'Cause plenty resident just innocent
