What's the Word

Mr. Bush, you better check out your own part in the divine drama

You may find you the DevilListen, 'cause in 1990

Chubb Rock and the gang is on a banned mission

Hostility will rule like a Jamaican [Incomprehensible]

And ooh filled with dumplings, hopefully no dumpingsLike guns will be present while I keep the people jumpin'

Not too much, South Africa isn't free yet

I spoke to the kids from Brooklyn to T-Neck

New Jersey, and they heard me while I cursed theWhite minority regime, painted an ill scene

Brothers and sisters over there dyin'

Mandela in a cell in Robbin Island

Thank God he's out now, and while I singI know he has things in a full swing, yeah

This year crumb-snatcher Thatcher, we're gonna catch her

Being a klutz, her husband is a drunk putz

He acts absurd, now what's the word?Johannesburg

Johannesburg

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come onOkay okay, come on

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come onIf he's the President, pullin' out my Ray-GunListen, brothers and sisters

It's time for everyone to go fishin'

For your history, open a book and read

Between the lines, don't recline your mindSometimes I don't know how to make it understood

That a lot of black movies have been tampered by Hollywood

So it's important, take the name and date and step

Research it yourself, 'cause you owe a large debtTo yourself, your history is yours to keep

Or you won't reap in the benefits, don't let Mr. Rabinuwitz

Sell you something with a zing, to get blissed

Leave the rock to the Nazis, excel in YahtzeeBe a bookworm, not a bookend, 'cause men

Before you have died so you can taste freedom

If we can't beat 'em we'll delete 'em, so now

What's the word?Johannesburg

Johannesburg

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come onOkay okay, come on

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come onOkay okay, come on

Okay okay, come on

Okay okay, come on

If he's the President, pullin' out my Ray-GunThroughout history, no physical might has ever crushed

The invincible spirit of a nation

And yes, we are a nation, a different coloration

But that isn't significant, pull a ligamentWhile you're standin', pumpin' your fist they will miss

And crumble and remain in the cold abyss

And now it's time for action, action is the verb

The pronoun I will say, scream, "What's the word?"Now come on, what's the word?

Alright, I'm gonna bring in the aspect

Of my man Rob-n-O

The Jamaica aspect, come nowI'm a soldier, I'm a soldier

I'm gonna chase up Gaddafi and run down Botha

Botha betta run him betta start [Incomprehensible]

I mash up [Incomprehensible] when he conquerYour gun gonna fire, come fatter

Say it to the sky like a ball of fire

Jah come foot rule over [Incomprehensible]

Gun gonna fire, I'm a soldierAlright, time for the American English aspect

From my man Rob Swinga, come nowYo, I wonder why is it that in Africa

The black people are the 2nd and 3rd class citizens?

I mean I thought Africa was black

Isn't that what they told us in our own history books in America?I mean, yo it's something to think about

They gonna tell me I'm black and I'm from Africa

Yet still somebody's tellin' me

I have no right to say what goes on thereI mean I can't understand that at all!

That's something to really make you

Stop and think and say

"Hmm"

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
