I Said It Once

(álbum: Born In Africa - 1996)

I said it once

I said it once, I said it twice
I'm not gonna say it again
I said it once, I said it twice
I'm not gonna say it again

I said it once, I said it twice
I'm not gonna say it one more time
All ruling political leaders
Give the people job and life
It's a basic human right
Rich or poor, privilege or not
A job and a life is a basic need
Everyone has a right to a job
Everyone has a right to a life
But sometimes things don't turn as planned
And dreams don't seem to come their way
Time has come to get it right
Time has come to change your mind
I'm not gonna say it one more time
Get a time, get a job, get a life

I said it once, I said it twice (get a job, get a life)
I'm not gonna say it again
I said it once, I said it twice (get a life, get a job)
I'm not gonna say it again

Listen up, hear me now
Check the words that come from above
It's a basic human need
It's nothing but a human right
The sick, the weak we can help
The lazy ones we cannot help
Time has come to get it right
Time has come to change your mind
Get a time, get a job, get a life

I said it once, I said it twice (get a job, get a life)
I'm not gonna say it again
I said it once, I said it twice (get a life, get a job)
I'm not gonna say it again

I said it once, I said it twice (get a job, get a life)
I'm not gonna say it again
I said it once, I said it twice (get a life, get a job)
I'm not gonna say it again
