Dirty H20 Lyrics - Vex - Steel Pulse

Set sail from the island shores 

Told of the streets that were paved with gold 

We were cheap labour right after the war 

A pie in the sky we were searching for 

Our mamas and papas came over and got no respect 

When they came for work 

And sent for our brothers and sisters 

Who left all the sunshine 

To be treated like dirt....so now 

Dem a throw dirty water in our face 

We came here and got no love only hate 

So we are tired to eat up the crumbs pon your plate 

....can't wait 

I just can't wait, no way 

....can't wait 

I just can't wait, now, no way 

Give one good reason why you do that 

We ain't got completion to get the connection 

To be in position for the right direction 

Wow know 

We've got wounds from old slavery 

And even today they refuse to heal 

Just like a scapegoat we almost feel 

Cause we have been given a very raw deal 

The last to be hired the first to be fired oh yes 

Still remains the same 

We built up your country and foretold your wars 

Any crises we would get the blame so now 

Can't wait, I just can't wait no way 

Can't wait, I just can't wait 

Gimme back me shilling with mi lion pon it 

Gimme back me land flowing with milk and honey 

Back away with your name calling us Jungle Bunny 

You tell too much blasted lie with your tarzan movie 

Can't wait, I just can't wait 

Just give me one good reason why you do that!
