"Tyrant" lyrics

"Tyrant"

Tyrant, uh, yes
Ooh weh

If dem a tyrant, kick dem out
Hallelujah, jump and shout
Uprising, without a doubt
You better watch out, you bad rulers

Dem a tyrant, kick dem out
Hallelujah, jump and shout
Uprising, yes, without a doubt
You better watch out, you bad rulers

Never let a politician, oh no, grant you a favour
He coming with his plots and schemes after you
To control you for I-ver and ever
Chant Nyahbinghi, congo drums
Woe to downpressors, yes
Stab through the heart of Babylon, I-man say
'Cause I-man no jester when I say

Tyrant, kick dem out
Hallelujah, mi say fi jump and shout
Uprising, without a doubt
You better watch out, you bad rulers

Dem a tyrant, mi say fi kick dem out
Hallelujah, you gotta jump and shout
Uprising, yes, without a doubt
You better watch out, you bad rulers

You pocketing the government funds
Guilty of deceiving the people
Who worship the ground that you walk on
How can you be so evil?
Oh, any opposition, thrown into prison
Sentenced to an execution
The system is a fraud, in greed there's no reward, no
Let's eradicate corruption

Tyrant, say kick dem out
Hallelujah, mi say fi jump and shout
Uprising, yes, without a doubt
Hey, yeah, hey, hey, hey

Tyrant, mi say fi kick dem out
Hallelujah, oh, you gotta jump and shout
Uprising, yes, without a doubt
You better watch out, you bad rulers

We put you on trial now
For stealing the votes, yeah
Your life in our hands now
Held by your throat
Power to the people, say we find you guilty
In the name of democracy we burn the city
No more hypocrisy, we have no mercy
So much oppression and repression lead to poverty

[?]
Oh, hey, hey

Dem a tyrant, kick dem out
Hallelujah, jump and shout
Uprising, yes, without a doubt
You better watch out, better watch out

Down trodden masses, get up of your asses
Take a look at all the trouble we're facing
'Case is what the fact is, we paying too much taxes
And we protest 'cause we know it's a sin, hey

Tyrant, so much violence
Dem a tyrant, will, will go down in silence
Yes, yes, yes

Tyrant, mi say fi kick dem out
Hallelujah, mi say fi jump and shout
Uprising, yes, without a doubt
You better watch out, you better watch out, yes

Watch out, watch out, watch out
Better look out
Watch out, watch out, watch out
You better look out
Watch out, watch out, watch out
I says you better watch out
Watch out, watch out, watch out
Hey, hey, oh

I say fi tyrant - ty, ty, ty...
Dem a tyrant - ty, ty, ty...
