Текст песни Poor Man's Place (Turbulence) с переводом

No more sufferation

Pains my heart, see my mother cry

It really pains my heart

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Joy for them when Christmas comes around

But on the poor man’s face wears a frown

System designed to make the poor man drown

Every single t’ing we try we still going down

Eh, to be poor is a crime

Even when we try to shine

Work everyday and we nuh get a dime

Tell me what about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

What about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

Just look at them

Only the poor man bears the pain

They tek poor people for clown

Like we not a part of the human race, yeah

Food a' share but we nuh get a taste

And them tie we foot so we can’t win di race

A' nuff house deh yah but we no have a place

Them promise we prosperity we can’t find the trace

But remember they need our votes

Tell them stop treat we like seh we a rammed out, yeah

This is what we figure out

They want we stay in a permanent drought

But what about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

What about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

Justice for them but there’s no justice for us

Them gi’we di stardust and say buss dis for us

And they will say ashes to ashes and dust is to dust

They no want we stay indigenous, yeah

They figure us inferior

A ghetto yute can’t walk peacefully inna resdiential area

Oh yeah, give us a break

All that we can take, we have

What about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

What about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

What about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

What about the poor man’s place?

There’s no laughter on the poor man’s face

Joy for them when Christmas come around

On the poor man’s face wears a frown

System designed to make the poor man drown

Every single t’ing we do we still going down

To be poor is a crime
