lyrics

(J) - you have the right to freedom of assembly and association
but can only assemble if you apply, and they give you permission

(I) - you have the right to freedom of thought and expression
but you are not allowed to express yourself wit words of aggression

So what can an angry man do?
What can a frustrated woman do?
Or a youth wit no options do?
What can a fed up people do?

You love to hear of the struggle when its sung to beat you can cross the stage to
Love to preach about love and unity when it helps bring in that tourism revenue

But you call your fellow man a cockroach
The colonial guard is the exterminator
Criticise the act of burning tyres in the road
From behind a keyboard in yuh air-conditioned home

So what can an angry man do?
What can a frustrated woman do?
Or a youth wit no options do?
What can a fed up people do?

We cyah do nuting
They say we cyah do nuting
No way, Not at all!
We cyah do nuting
But we still hadda try a ting

We cyah do nuting
They say we cyah do nuting
No way, Not at all!
We cyah do nuting
But we still hadda try and do we ting….

No way, Not at all!
We cyah be on dat anymore
Cuz doing nutting never really worked before

We hadda try a ting
We hadda try someting
We hadda say we ting
Even if we end up with nuttin
