Be Careful Songtext
von Matthew McAnuff

No whoo-ooh-oh-oh
Ah whoo, ah whoo, ah, whoa-oh

I say you got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you′re blind
Nobody move becah you'll get left behind

You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you′re blind
Nobody will stand 'cah you'll get left behind

Dem Babylon, you give us guns, you teach us to kill
Caught up by mi brethren, you only do your dutty will again
Said we a suffer, and it′s us for make a dime
Man a fi work hard ′cause to be poor is a crime, yes

Your system is set up fi keep the black man down
Babylon di send nuff to put our face inna di gun again
Let's realise and open your eyes
And give di wicked man them a surprise


You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you′re blind
Nobody will stand 'cah you′ll get left behind

You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you're blind
You got to-, becah you′ll get left be-

Then Babylon, Babylon have the people drifted
Inna dem material world and dem corruptive system
No niam dem beef, no niam dem swanky
Mi say our love is the way to united, which is the right thing

Two thousand years of slavery
Brainwashed mi people with story
Selassie, I my conferee
That's why mi mum and mi dad make me

You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you're blind
Nobody move becah you′ll get left be-


You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you′re blind
Nobody will stand 'cah you will get left behind

Then Babylon, you give us guns, you teach us to kill
Caught up by mi brethren you only do your dutty will again
Said we a suffer and it′s us for make a dime
Man a fi work hard 'cause to be poor is a crime, yes

Your system is set up fi keep the black man down
Babylon dem send nuff to put our face inna di gun again
Let′s realise and open your eyes
And give di wicked man dem a surprise

You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you're blind
You cannot will stand ′cah you'll get left behind

You got to be careful in this time
Know your role and try learn your line
Inna dis a time, you cannot move like you're blind
Nobody will stand ′cah you′ll get left behind

Then look at, no
Then what ya know oh
Jus' look at, no oh

Whoa-ooh, whoa-ooh, whoa-oh
Ooh, whoa, whoa-oh, yeah
Ooh, whoa-ooh, whoa-oh-oh
