Junior Kelly – Sleep Last Night Lyrics

Ska

Yeah
Rastafari
Who is you to come and choose I destiny fi me
Yeah, a pure gedi youth, tell di youth di truth

A when yuh put all di gun inna di youth dem hand
Padang, padang
After we vote fi you, then we you come turn yuh back pon
Padang, padang
Then you send in di police fi come shoot we one-one
Padang, padang
A whole heap of innocent youth you put pon gallows fi hang
Padang, padang
A when you nuh fix di route, prison dem overload
You tek we money, lodge it inna off-shore bank

But how you sleep last night?
Loseubel, a nuh get no sleep last night
Big Port, a nuh get no sleep last night
Dem conscience a toss and a bow
Little shot, a nuh get no sleep last night
Politician a nuh get no sleep last night

Check it out
Nuff of dem sit down pon di keys to nuclear weapon
Nuff of dem a contribute to dem owna destruction
Bloody city, it's a pity, kill the Ethiopian
Lion of Judah nuh carry claws nor fang, hey
Dem turn a blind eye to we cry
Dem send dem thugs dem come in yah
Come brutalize, intimidate and say dem run di corner
But I laugh at a fool's blunder
Cah now him cyan stand him own reflection, conscience taking over

How you sleep last night?
Big Port, a nuh get no sleep last night
Loseubel, a nuh get no sleep last night
Dem conscience a toss and a bow
Little shot, a nuh get no sleep last night
Corrupt policeman nuh get no sleep last night

Check it out
No moral, not a love, and not a discipline
First thing dem do wrong, dem nuh hail di king
Blood a shed, bread a beg, dem galavicate
Dem nuh cater fi majority dat is suffering
Dem invest inna di west and a judgment it bring
Build up dem concrete jungle and reject di farming
Jude and woe a di poor, it really hurting
Dem just a scoff and a scorn and a show no caring

But how you sleep last night?
Loseubel, a nuh get no sleep last night
Big Port, a nuh get no sleep last night
Dem conscience a toss and a bow
Little shot, a nuh get no sleep last night
Politician a nuh get no sleep last night
Di clerk nuh get no sleep last night
Corrupt politician a nuh get no sleep last night
Policeman nuh get no sleep last night
Dem conscience a toss and a bow
Mi know dem nuh get no sleep last night
A nuff of dem nuh sleep last night

Check it out
Nuff of dem sit down pon di keys to nuclear weapon
Nuff a contribute to dem owna destruction
Bloody city, it's a pity, kill the Ethiopian
Lion of Judah nuh carry claws nor fang, hey
Dem turn a blind eye to we cry
Dem send dem thugs dem come in yah
Come brutalize, intimidate and say dem run di corner
But I laugh at a fool's blunder
Cah now him cyan stand him own reflection, conscience taking over

And how you sleep last night?
Loseubel, a nuh get no sleep last night
Big Port, a nuh get no sleep last night
Dem conscience a toss and a bow
Di shot, a nuh get no sleep last night
Corrupt policeman nuh get no sleep last night
Loseubel, a nuh get no sleep last night
A nuff nuh get no sleep last night

Are you pure?
Are you pure?
Are you sure?
You nuh make it, you nuh make it
Best fi sure
