Affirmative Action Lyrics - Singles - Lucky Dube

From where I stand 

I can see the world 

Getting smaller and smaller 

And there'll be no place 

For people like you, Georgie 

Who still live in the past 

When you couldn't do things for yourself 

You blamed it on apartheid 

You blamed it on the government and everybody 

Now is the time to prove yourself 

If you think affirmative action 

Is the way out, no way, no way 

Constitution can be changed 

From time to time, 

But that does not mean that 

You don't need no education 

We are tired of people who 

Think that affirmative action is the way out 

And, is another way of putting puppets 

Where they don't belong 

I'm so sorry, Georgie 

But the only way to get our economy strong 

Is to have an educated nation 

And if you think affirmative action 

Is the way out, no way, no way 

Education is still the key 

Even though we have affirmative action 

Education is still the key 

Even though we have affirmative action 

Education is still the key 

Even though we have affirmative action 

...
