She said,
“Boy answer the question”
And we’ve been patiently waiting all our lives
Told me to sit down and shut up all our lives

[Chorus:]
And this is the uproar
Uproar, uproar,
This is the uproar
Uproar, uproar, uproar
This is the uproar
Go!

For the prisoner of conscience
Walking fearing where you tread
Crimes against the people that the government led
Amnesty now for an innocent dread
(Is it) Only for the rich that the poor get bled

[Chorus]

For the mind of my sister fight the one eyed views
Body of my mother torn broken and abused
People in the cities and the streets beating down
Color culture stand together
Make this sound
Make this sound
So won’t you make this, make this, make this sound

Because you said,
“Boy answer the question”
And we’ve been patiently waiting all our lives
Told me to sit down and shut up all our lives
Knocking me out of my head
Into my heart as it’s bled
Knocking me out of my head
Into the heart as it’s bled, out

Because we sing
An oi oi song
And a unity song [x4]

Old conflict put them to bed
Real enemy please show your head
Old conflict put them to bed
Will the real enemy please show your head

Woah

[Chorus]
