Lyrics
The young man standing laughing
But he knows where the shoe dey pain am so
He no fit do anything today
But one day the tables will turn
The little children on the streets
Are working hard so they can eat
Dem no fit do anything but cry
One day the tables will turn
My sister with the sexy eyes
Selling her body so she can live
She no fit do anything but worry
One day the tables will turn
So my brothers, don't you see?
We must bring some sanity over here
How can one person have so much
While so many have none?
The average man doesn't ask for too much
He only wants what you and I want
A safe place to lay his head at night
Is that too much to ask?
He wants his kids to go to good schools
So they can become somebody
He wants them to grow up healthy and strong
Is that too much to ask?
So when you build your mansions
And drive around in your fancy cars
Remember to think of the little man
'Cause one day the tables will turn
So my sisters don't you see?
We must bring some sanity over here
How can one person have so much
While so many have none?
Our people keep on struggling
A meditate on the words of the wise
A lie may stand for a thousand years
But one day the truth will reign
Our mothers put away your worries
Wipe away your flowing tears
We no fit do anything today
But one day the tables will turn
Little children, listen up
We may be down but we're not out
We must not give up on our dreams
One day your time will come, oh, yeah
So my people, don't you see?
We must bring some sanity over here
How can one person have so much
While so many have none?
The poor man stands there laughing
But he knows where the shoe dey pain am so
Him no fit do anything today
But one day the tables will turn
The tables will turn
Tell you one day
The tables will turn, the tables turn
The tables turn, the tables turn
The tables will turn, the tables turn
The tables turn, yeah
The tables will turn
