Third World - You're Playing Us Too Close lyrics
Music and Lyrics by Stevie Wonder Jobless people starving babies spreading over the land More oppression to the have nots is how you play your hand More world fighting is the writing from those say they know And if that's true we know just who you'll be picking to go But the beat you are playing to what Jah is saying is wrong And we do recommend that you stop before it's too far gone And I just got to say You're playing us too close We in the ghettos You're playing us too close The jobless and the hungry You're playing us too close Filling up more and more with Frustration You're playing us too close We're losing our patience So take heed and do let it be known that I've told you today You're playing us much too close yea All the teaching of JAH bible you don't want to obey But you're writing your own ticket to the price you will pay Us you hold hock but the drawback is not to us alone Time will make you too a victim before you see the wrong And the melody that you are playing is in the wrong key For Jah's choirs that sings out to all live in world harmony And I just got to say You're playing us too close We in the ghettos You're playing us too close Red black white brown and yellow poor people You're playing us too close The babies are crying You're playing us too close Good people are dying So take heed and do let it be known that I've told you today Jah say you're playing us much too close Now when I was just a little boy my grandfather use to say to me, |
