Bobbin' & Weavin'

(album: Resistance - 1996)

You know the press the say there's a brand new regime
Taking over the Washington scene
They say we're in for some concrete change
Right wing ah gone rearrange
But I know there's a secret pact
Between the Republicans and Democrats
I can see that there ain't nothing new
In this latest Conservative coup

Same old bobbing and a weaving
Going down in the Washington scene
Same old game of deceiving
Don't you trust in no political scheme
Jah gonna make you understand one day
That's why we have to fight against the wicked man's ways

My people beware
The Politricksters just don't care
They keep the people in the dark
With their empty promises

One thing my people must know
Governments will come and go
Corruption will always succeed
So don't make friends so easily

Same old bobbing and weaving
Going down in the Washington scene
Same old game of deceiving
Don't you trust in the political scheme
Same old game
Of lies and illusion
Same old game
Of tears and confusion
Same old game
Hear what I say
Same old game

Jah gonna make you understand one day
That's why we have to fight against the wicked man's ways

My people beware
The Politricksters just don't care
They keep the people in the dark
With their empty promises

Same old game
Of lies and confusion
Same old game
Of tears and illusion
Same old game
Hear what I say
Same old game

Same old bobbing and weaving
The ruling kings in the Washington scene
Same old game of deceiving
Don't you trust their scheme
Same old game
Of lies and illusion
Same old game
Of fears and confusion
Same old game
Hear what I say
Same old game
Hear what I say
