Unfair (Officer) Lyrics
[Intro]
Life is so unfair
Me not even sell a crate of beer
And by the time me look, pure police come inna mi lawn...
Say, the sound haffi turn off
I don't know wha' a gwan
A who invite dem inna mi lawn?
But, still me nah worry myself
'Cause me know fi a fact say dem a fight ghetto youths before me born
[Chorus]
No lock off the sound, officer
And gwan like you take me fi clown, officer, hey
When no music nah play inna the ghetto and the shots dem a echo
Unuh say we're up to no good
Let the music play, officer
No bother make the youths dem go astray, officer, hey
Just remember say inna JA we party everyday
Man a try fi life the right way
[Verse 1]
So me say
Loving in the ghetto is not easy to survive
More time you haffi hustle just to stay alive
Though we nuh have no big education
Plus dem say me not qualified fi the 9 to 5
So, it's a dance me a keep
Take some liquor pon consignment and me block the street
The people dem come out whole heap
But, by the time me look, a pure Jeep
A dem...
[Chorus]
Come fi lock off the sound, officer
And gwan like you take me fi clown, officer, hey
When no music nah play inna the ghetto and the shots dem a echo
Unuh say we're up to no good
Let the music play, officer
No bother make the youths dem go astray, officer, hey
Just remember say inna JA we party everyday
Man a try fi life the right way
[Verse 2]
Yeah
Me a beg the ghetto youth dem fi put down the gun
'Cause if the shot a beat, then the music ago done
'Cause me no want the police pass through
And see no more dead bodies laid down pon the ground
Officer, me a beg you please
Come end the ghetto youths dem when dem hold off the peace
Man from West and East

Me rather see dance than see funeral keep
[Chorus]
No lock off the sound, officer
And gwan like you take me fi clown, officer, hey
When no music nah play inna the ghetto and the shots dem a echo
Unuh say we're up to no good
Let the music play, officer
No bother make the youths dem go astray, officer, hey
Just remember say inna JA we party everyday
Man a try fi life the right way
[Verse 3]
Yo, yo, yo
Tell me wha' dem waan we do
Tell me wha' dem all a plan...
When dem only aim in life a fi pressure the poor man
So, me a keep a dance just fi make a couple grand
Police circle inna the dance, say, come with your permit inna your hand
When me show the man mi permit, yo, him still a say me wrong
'Cause the permit stop at 2:00, and now a 2:21
Hey, it seems like dem no care
Worse, me nuh have nothing fi spare
So me say, alright
[Chorus]
No lock off the sound, officer
And gwan like you take me fi clown, officer, hey
When no music nah play inna the ghetto and the shots dem a echo
Unuh say we're up to no good
Let the music play, officer
No bother make the youths dem go astray, officer, hey
Just remember say inna JA we party everyday
Man a try fi life the right way
