Testo Tell Me Why - Fun Boy Three
Testo della canzone Tell Me Why (Fun Boy Three), tratta dall'album The Complete Fun Boy Three
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
Why should we have to fight?
Why should we fight?
I know I am black
You know you are white
I'm proud of my black skin
You are proud of your white, so
Tell me why you tried to hurt me
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
I don't need the British Movement
Nor the National Front
Nor the Black Power movement
I can think for myself
Why don't you try the same?
Try and think for yourself
This fussing and fighting's insane
Under the skin we're the same
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell us why, tell us why, tell us why
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell us why, tell us why, tell us why
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell us why, tell us why, tell us why
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell us why, tell us why, tell us why
Why did you try to hurt me?
Tell us why, tell us why, tell us why
Irish man, Welsh man, Indian man
Jamaicans, Canadians, American man
Iranians, Nigerians and Cuban man
'Cause all of you are immigrants
All types taking over
All types taking over
Bobby Kotch and party rolling all over
Bobby Kotch and party rolling all over
It's time fi get up and fight
It's time we fight fi wi rights
Bobby Kotch a wid a nuclear weapon
Me sir talking bout the rules and regulations
Irish, Welsh, Indian man
Jamaicans, Canadians, American man
Iranians, Nigerians and Cuban mans
'Cause all of you, you are immigrants
Walking sweet down the street with a pocket full a collie weed
When I mek a stop, I take a look into di clothes shop
And tell me what did I see?
Four nazi skin, they just a run after me
Four nazi skin, they just a mek after me
I mek a with a left, I say I hook with the right
I mek with the left, I say I hook with the right
Irish, Welsh, and Indian man
Jamaicans, Canadians, American
Iranians, Nigerians and Cuban man
'Cause all of you, you are immigrants
All of you, you are immigrants
The Irish, the Welsh and the Indian
So we got to get together, and try and sort it out
Because we got to stick together just like a birds of a feather
Bum didla-didla-didla-didla, mi say feather
Iranians talk to Nigerians
Nigerians talk to Cubans
Cubans talk to Irish
The Irish talks to the British
Because too much race war
All types taking over
A Bobby Kotch and party rolling all over
Give us the determination to rule the nation
War upon war
Racial war
