A So The System Work

We dread
Working for your bread
While the bosses
Sitting asses

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
I’ve got to work so hard for my just reward
Them put me through a test
And when I have done my best
The only thing I’ve got is praise, no raise

A so the system work, if yuh nuh check it up
You bound to get a jerk
A so the system work, if yuh nuh check it up
You will jump out the earth

I told them of my responsibility
And I only my credibility
They give me some assurety
And when I argue about the security
Them pat me on the shoulder
Saying everything is alright (alright, alright!)
When the Friday comes
And I got my pay
Tomorrow me a borrow

A so the system work, if yuh nuh check it up
You bound to get a jerk
A so the system work, if yuh nuh check it up
You will jump out the earth

A so the system work, if yuh nuh check it up
You bound to get a jerk
The system
The system
The system
Be careful of the system

Oh
Be careful of the system
Or you will be a victim
The system
The sys
The sys
The sys
The system
Ah, ah oahh
