One Man One Vote

South Africa must be free, yes?
You know I can't hear you
South Africa must be free, yes?!
Awoh
Few months ago they had a vote in
South Africa, just for the white people
And 67% of them said yes, go ahead and break down apartheid
That was good, at the time
But, actions speak louder than words, right?
And we all see what is still happening in South Africa
So this one is called "They Must Agree To One Man, One Vote"
Do you agree?
Alright
If they don't agree, run them out
Come wid it

Dem let back South Africa in the scheme of things
It's just not cricket
Until dem say one man, one vote
Just if they don't agree, run dem out

They must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out
They must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out
We a go run dem, if they do not agree
Run dem, dem think dem better than we
Run dem, dem a di minority
And a who give dem permission fi go rule over we
They must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out
They must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out

Dem a get back inna things and we no love it
Mi no like how dem get back inna cricket
Shoulda mi a bowl di ball inna di wicket
Because me woulda bowl after di wicket
Mi wouldn't even bowl di ball, mi woulda fling it
Fling it with all di strength like a bullet
Straight in di man face, mi a lick it
And when him face drop a ground mi a kick it
'Cause when they free Mandela, dem open up di door
But mi want dem open up di door likkle more
Dem say dat dem change, but mi no so sure
Fi start deal with dem, it is a bit premature
Mi trust dem like mi just a lump of manure
Then mi diss mi again like dem trick way before
'Cause mi say disease like a septic sore
One man, one vote, dat is it

Oh, South Africa, it's the same old story
Don't you know that your lover, he's gonna bring back the glory

Dem must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out
They must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out

It's a matter of time, time is the master
Majority must rule inna South Africa
Freedom, that is all we after
But some of di white man, dem want all di power
Dem deh go wan' live inna place weh black man a rule
Now we just give dem dem passport, give dem dem visa
Weh ever dem want fi go, it no really matter
Cah you have whole heap of racist

Oh, South Africa, it's the same old story
Same thing all over
Don't you know that your lover, he's gonna bring back the glory
And the fire's getting hotter
No part is like in fire
My people, this is your time to rise

Dem must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out
They must agree to one man, one vote
If they do not agree we a go run dem out
We a go run dem, if they do not agree
Run dem, dem think dem better than we
Run dem, cah dem a nobody
Run dem, right inna di sea
Run dem, dem think dem better than we
Mi say fi run dem, dem a di minority
Dem a di minority
And a who give dem permission fi go rule over we
Dem must agree
Dem must agree
