Keziah Jones - 1973 (Jokers Reparations) текст песни

Исполнитель: Keziah Jones

альбом: Nigerian Wood


In 1973 the naira was introduced
To help the economy
But the value is kinda weak:
One naira is 0, 06 dollar
In official calculations
Before "inflation"
We used cowries
We all knew what things were worth
But for mirrors and beads.
The've sold us a whole nation.
You say "now wheres all the money gone?"
To banks in switzerland
Where your wealth is our poverty.
A jokers reparation is kinda deep
It's got the punchline "democracy"
On the stage of globalisation
And now we go-a-begging
Internationally,
To the countries of our suffering
For debt relier
With no apologies
Just devalued currencies
No apologies
For jokers reparations
