mighty sparrow - grenada crisis lyrics
whoopsie mama!
[verse 1]
uncle tell me what is wrong
who keeping grenada down
uncle tell me what is wrong
who keeping grenada down
trinidadians begging grenada
to unite and to join up together
everything to gain, nothing to lose
don’t let politics get all you confused
[chorus]
you getting free education (that’s right!)
when you join up the nation (that’s right!)
freedom of movement (that’s right!)
and a proper government (yes that’s right!)
it is only fair you embrace the chances
to work in office not to cut down branches
the doctor open the door, oh my lord
tell me what you waiting for
[verse 2]
n0body shouldn’t interferе
with politics here or therе
but if you got ambition
you must lend a helping hand
the world isn’t like it used to be
with masters and slaves and royalty
everything is changed entirely
take advantage of true democracy
[chorus]
come on! for free education (that’s right!)
when you join up the nation (that’s right!)
you’re getting freedom of movement (that’s right!)
and a proper government (yes, that’s right!)
it is only fair you embrace the chances
to work in office not to cut down branches
the doctor open the door, oh my lord
tell me what you waiting for
whoopsie mama!
[verse 3]
you got to get up and get
to succeed, well you got to sweat
don’t depend on n0body else
the lord help them that help themselves
everybody cannot think alike
some of you could be wrong, some could be right
so if to put it to a vote this very month
it’s the opinion of the majority that counts
[chorus]
for free education (that’s right!)
when you join up the nation (that’s right!)
freedom of movement (that’s right!)
and a proper government (yes that’s right!)
it is only fair you embrace the chances
to work in office not to cut down branches
the doctor open the door, oh my lord
tell me what you waiting for
[verse 4]
grenada has to improve
this ain’t no political move
i done tell you what to do
i’m a grenadian just like you
make up your mind before it get late
trinidad want a unitary state
so let me hear you now all together
trinidad, tobago, and grenada
[chorus]
for free education (that’s right!)
when you join up the nation (that’s right!)
freedom of movement (that’s right!)
and a proper government (yes that’s right!)
i say it is only fair you embrace the chances
to work in office not to cut down branches
dr. william open the door, oh my lord
tell me what you waiting for!
