Culture - Dirty Tricks

Won't somebody, won't somebody
Won't somebody tell me please what's going on
Won't somebody, won't somebody
Won't somebody tell me please what's going on

With our people, with Jah people
They are playing a dirty trick upon dem
With Jah people, with Jah people
They are trying hard to mislead dem

With our children, with our children
They are trying hard to indoctrinate dem
With our children's education
They are trying their best to fool the children dem

Won't somebody, won't somebody
Won't somebody please tell me what's going on
Ooh yeah, somebody (please be kind), somebody
Won't somebody tell me please what's going on, now!

I keep looking around
And I can't understand
I tried to discuss with them
For instance Fort Augustus
I'm talking about Alcatraz
They are two prisons of the same kind
One in Jamaica, the other in America
So tell me why really should we see that, woo

Won't somebody, somebody
Won't somebody tell me please what's going on
Won't somebody, somebody, tell me about the prisons

Every now and then they take away a ,am
And carry him behind the walls (whoa, officer!)
I just can't understand what's going on
Won't somebody please

Won't somebody, won't somebody
Won't somebody tell me please what's going on
Won't somebody (get up) won't somebody
Get up and tell me please, what's going on
Somebody (somebody, somebody, somebody) somebody
What's going on, yeah..
