Lyrics

Revelation time, la la la la
Father help I to be in a position
Where I can fulfill thy works oh jah
I really don't want to be in opposition
To the leaders, to the ???, even you jah jah

But they should not trim dreadlocks in prison, prison
Murder of the murderers got to stop
They should not trim dreadlocks in prison
Liars and thieves should not be cops
Liars and thieves should not be cops

Revelation time
Wedge up your hammer
Sharpen up your sickle
Revelation time

If ever I should be in a position
Where I could fulfill thy works oh jah
I wouldn't want to be a politician
???

And I would not trim dreadlocks in prison
Murder of the murderers I tried and stop
I wouldn't trim dreadlocks in prison
Liars and thieves would not be cops
Liars and thieves would not be cops

Revelation time
Wedge up your hammer
Sharpen up your sickle

The simplest thing is bang bang bang
What is this on the little island
If every man was equal you see
There wouls be none of this poverty

And they could not trim dreadlocks in prison, prison
Victimization would have to stop
They could not trim dreadlocks in prison, prison
Liars and thieves would not be cops
Liars and thieves would not cops
