Linton Kwesi Johnson - Di Black Petty Booshwah lyrics



dem wiÂ'gi` whey dem talent to di state
anÂ'di black workinÂ' class andahrate
dem wiÂ' side wid oppressah
wÂ'en di goinÂ' get ruff
side wid aggressah
wÂ'en di goinÂ' get tuff

dem a black petty-booshwah
dem full of flaw
dem a black petty-booshwah
dem full of flaw

tru dem seh dem edicate dem a gwaan irate
tru dem seh dem edicate dem a seek tap rate
dem a seek posishan
aaf di backs of blacks
seek promoshan
aaf di backs af blacks

dem a black petty-booshwah
dem full of flaw
dem a black petty-booshwah
dem full of flaw

dem a run-up dem moutÂ' anÂ' a shout all about
tru dem have a lat a douÂ't Â'bout di strenÂ't af blacks
dem a run-up dem moutÂ'
anÂ' a shout all about
but wÂ'en wi launch wi attack
dem wiÂ' haffi dress back

dem a black petty-booshwah
dem full of flaw
dem a black petty-booshwah
dem full of flaw!
