Curfew
[Intro]
A wa-yah
A wa-yah, wa-yah, wa-yah
Wa-yah, wa-yah
[Chorus]
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
Police an' soldier, they are down on me
Police an' soldier, they down on you
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
[Verse 1]
All I can hear
And all I can see surround me
"Stick it up, stick it up
An' put your hands in di air, sir
Stick it up, stick it up
An' put your back against di wall"
[Chorus]
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
[Verse 2]
Please sir, I have no weapons
Please sir, I am a righteous man
"Stick it up, stick it up
I don't care who you are"
Police an' solider man a deal with violencee
Police an' solider man a deal with badness
[Chorus]
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
[Verse 3]
"Stick it up, stick it up
An' put your hands in di air, sir
Stick it up, stick it up
An' put your back against di wall"
[Bridge]
I-yah, I-yah, I-yah
On dis a fire
I-yah, I-yah, I-yah
On dis a fire
[Chorus]
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
Oh, what a curfew
And it's a roadblock too
[Verse 4]
"Stick it up, stick it up
An' put your hands in di air, sir
Stick it up, stick it up
An' put your back against di wall"
[Chorus]
Police an' soldier down on me
Police an' soldier down on you
Oh, what a curfew
Oh, what a road block
[Bridge]
I-yah, I-yah, I-yah
On dis a fire
I-yah, I-yah, I-yah
On dis a fire
[Outro]
I don't have no gun, sir
I don't have no illegal weapon
I'm a man of peace an' love
I'm a man of righteousness
