Emergency On Planet Earth (London Rican Mix) Lyrics


The kids need education
And the streets are never clean
I've seen a certain disposition
Prevailing in the windSweet change, if anybody's listening?
Emergency on planet earth
Is that life that I am witnessing
Or just another wasted birth?Now we got emergency
Emergency on planet earth
Now we got emergency
We got emergency on planet earth, just a head upThink we're standing for injustice
White gets two and black gets five years
Well it took me quite a while to suss this
Now I know my head is cleared
And a little boy in hungry land
Is just a picture in the news
I won't see him in the TV advertising
'Cause it might put you off your foodNow we got emergency
We got emergency on planet earth

Now we got emergency
We got emergency on planet earth, come onIs anybody out there?
Is anybody out there?
Is anybody out there?
We got emergency on planet earth, just a head upSee what we got
Emergency on planet earth is what we got
I tell 'em what we got now
Emergency on planet earth is what we got
Is someone out there?
Emergency on planet earth is what we got
Somebody help me
Somebody help me now
'Cause we got an emergencyCome on somebody help us now
I will need you
Somebody help us now

Jamiroquai is a funk/acid jazz band which formed in London, England, United Kingdom in 1992. The band currently consists of Jason 'Jay Kay' Cheetham (vocals), Matt Johnson (keyboards), Rob Harris (guitar), Paul Turner (bass), Derrick McKenzie (drums) , Sola Akingbola (percussion), Lorraine McIntosh (backing vocals) and Hazel Fernandez (backing vocals). The name "Jamiroquai" is derived from the Native American Iroquois tribe, with which Kay has said he identifies philosophically, combined with 'Jam', as in musical jamming.

After Jay Kay auditioned unsuccessfully to be the singer of the Brand New Heavies, he decided to put together his own band. Jamiroquai's first single, "When You Gonna Learn?", was released in 1992 on the Acid Jazz label. Following its success, Kay signed a £1,000,000 eight-album record deal with Sony BMG Music Entertainment. The band enjoys worldwide popularity and is the best-known member of the early-1990s London-based acid jazz movement, alongside groups such as Incognito, Galliano, and Corduroy. Jamiroquai has since, however, moved in other musical directions.
