Making history
Now tell me something
Mr.Government
Tell me something
How long you really feel
You coulda keep us under heel
When the truth is done reveal
About how you grabbed and stole
About how you made your crooked deal
Made your crooked deal?
Well down in soutall
Where peach did get fall
The Asians firmed up a human wall
Gense the fascists and their police sheil
And they showed that the Asians have a lot of zeal
A lot of zeal, have a lot of zeal
It is not a mystery
We are making history
It is not a mystery
We are winning victory
Now tell me something
Mr police spokesman
Tell me something
How long do you really think
We woulda taken your baton lick
Your jackboot kick
Your dutty bag of tricks
And your racist pallyticks
Your racist pallyticks?
Well down in Bristal
They added no pistols
But they chased the babylan away
Man you should have seen your babylan
How they really ran away
You should have seen your babylands dig up that they
Dig up that they, dig up that they
It's not a mystery
We're making history
It's not a mystery
We're winning victory
Now tell me something
Mistah ritewing man
Tell me something
How long do you really feel
We woulda grovel an squeal
When so much murdah canceal< br/>When we wound cyaan heal
When we feel the way we feel
Feel the way we feel?
Well there was Toxteh
And there was moss side
And a lot of places
Whey the police added to hide
Well there was Brixtan
And there was Chapeltoun
And a lot of places that were burnt to the ground
Burnt to the ground, burnt to the ground
It's no mystery
We're making history
It's no mystery
We're winning victory
