No Speak No Slave

Rooster crows at the break of dawn

A mother dies without her only son

A doctor laughs in the face of disease

I never once heard a preacher say please



And you, you want to be heard

But none of us understand a word

And you, you want to be free

Then don't speak like a slave to me.



Policemen who break the laws

Politicians rise and fall

A baby crying for its mothers milk

A daddy's secret hidden guilt



And you, you want to be heard

But none of us understand a word

And you, you want to be free

Then don't speak like a slave to me.
