Damian Marley 'Jr. Gong' - Educated Fools feat. Treach, Bunny Wailer, & Bounty Killer Songtext
von Damian Marley

Hey yo, hold up, hold up, hold up
Gung, Javi, whaddup?
Let′s check this out
Right here
Hear this

Three monkeys sitting under a coconut tree
Discussing things as they are set to be
Said one to the others, "now listen you two
There's a strange rumor that can′t be true
They say man was descended from a noble race
But the very idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Or her baby to ruin their lives"
The monkeys drift his mind


Well educated fools they a ruin the world
And start make it hard for both the boys and the girls
Them steal all the Africans' diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna Federal reserves
And then Rasta fuck it up and incite riot
Warn them fi cool and we did warn them fi quiet
Now them hear the kick drum, the snare, and the hi-hat
Load up them belly with some copper-shot diet


Imagine after so much acting and riots
What a revolutionary situation requires
Them fi come tear off unno face with pliers
Surround them ends with all some burning tires
Round up them friends and put them pon trials
Until them send the reparation dollars
Warning to all the political scholars
Political thieves and political liars
Political cocaine and gun suppliers
The whole of them a go down inna flames and fires
When unno better fly out like some frequent flyers
Bound to feel the wrath of the real punk gonyas
Hey, don't fuck yourself next time you reach out to budget
The government is a poor people, a judge it
Them bring the guns but the youths them a buss it
Burn them skeleton weh lock up inna closet
Wipe out them species and all them inhabits
With a whole series of pain and havoc
Nah clean off feces fi money, prefer grab it
Them make me resort to violence, the place get led up
Somebody nah live up, somebody going dead up
Blow! Whole of the garment them red up
Blow! Terran apartment get bled up
Didn′t you get ample warning?
Say, poor people fed up
Until every morning them try hold them head up
Emperor Selassie calling youths them fi dread up
Babylon is falling, gun nozzle bend up
Releasing the whole of the youth them weh pen up

Well educated demons have ruined the world
And start make it hard for both the boys and the girls
Them steal all the Africans′ diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna Federal reserves
The Rasta man them fuck it up and we go incite riot
Warn them fi cool and we did warn them fi quiet
Now them hear the kick drum, the snare, and the hi-hat
Load unno belly with a copper-shot diet

Check it now
Junior Gong, that Junior bang and beat up Babylon and Vatican
Me no come yah fi praise up no pagan
Me no come yah fi dig up no batty man
See them a come boost up Satan
For a chat all about the good weh it want
Tell them say, "Don, them late, unno man"
Who them fi come debate the sound?
Try jump them instigated wrong
Injustice nah go last too long
Sit down 'way pon your enemy
And politician, man a go bust the pan
Them hide the truth and a kill we with them brainwashed education
Poor people across the world, this is a special dedication
Africans and Israelites, don′t lose out no meditation
See them a come with racism, nah support segregation
Nah go stand there inna fit them clique and them congregation
How them run this country and how much them rob up the station?
That's why them ban the song
Them Marley one just show me make a stand
Check this clarification, yo

Well educated fools they a ruin the world
And start make it hard for both the boys and the girls
Them steal all the Africans′ diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna Federal reserves
Well educated fools they a ruin the world
And start make it hard for both the boys and the girls
Them steal all the Africans' diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna Federal reserves

Well educated fools, educated demons, and educated fools
Educated fools, educated fools, educated demons, and educated fools

Minutes after minutes, I see hour after hour
How them treat the people them nasty and sour
This is warlord style, me as black Noah
′Cause I represent Black Power, well
Almighty God inna the spiritual tower
A long time me know some only come to devour
Them have mi people them a shout, "Power and shower"
A trick them with them rice and flour
You know, me respect Rastafarians, me respect churchgoer
And them fi know say, poor people a no bowcat nor bower
Fire and flame me bring fi all them drunk crower
And that me want the whole of them fi know yah

And I heard man came from sands and other molecules
Way before bodies and barbecues
With a good side and a bad side they still argue through
Before scheming and thieving and dreaming of gleaming and fiending
Even before Adam and Even even
Before it was about being the nicest
Or whose diamonds that are priceless
B.C. around to Tutankhamen and Isis
On the continent of Africa, pass out and try to create a character
Soul of shit on Earth is magical
Then the strangers came from the boat with the ropes
Chains that felt strange, they called
It the slave game, the game changed
They had shackles like assholes to bloodclot
So nowadays a whip preventor is a thug's Glock
Seen them rape and kill our children and women, the villains
The pilgrims taught the black man how
To kill men, let's keep it real then
You can′t harm me or scar me, respect, call me
History′s priority with the Marleys
Marley, Marley, Marley, Marley, Ma-Ma-Marley
