Lyrics Imf - Terry Lynn

A team from the IMF which is currently in Jamaica
Is wrapping up a four day visit
For a technical assessment
Of the country's financial situation...
"The issue is to make globalization
Work for the benefit of all
There will not be a good future for the rich
If there is no prospect for a better future
For the pure...
Poor"
Them go build up them place for them investment
Bout them interest rates so where the interest went
None for the poor me no see no evidence
Who pay the revenue ain't got no residence
On the avenue so they can't pitch no tent
Govey gon with the loot the 100 percent
Not share the fruit not even one tenth
So tell me how the youths them feel content?
There will not be a good future for the rich if there is not prospect for a better future for the pure, poor
Pure, poor
Pure, poor
When IMF do the lending
The gormandizer them descending
Raid the barn run away with the corn now
Tell me what them defending
The money done so them start the pretending
Like it's the roadway them use it mending
Think slavery days gone but still been going on now
When shall it come to an ending
We shout solidarity
And we can't get no help from them policy
Our plight is not their priority
All we see is just partiality
From government and police brutality
Human rights justice equality
Is for the rich to increase popularity none for the majority
No funds for the charity me check out the chemistry
Only the ghetto youth inna the cemetery
Them go use the money build up penitentiary
And don't see education elementary
It's the key to the 21st century the only entry
You lament in parliament naw make no sense to me
So listen up
When IMF do the lending
The gormandizer them descending
Raid the barn run away with the corn now
Tell me what them defending
The money done so them start the pretending
Like it's the roadway them use it mending
Think slavery days gone but still been going on now
When shall it come to an ending
Our problems too numerous to mention
Till we a seek some divine intervention
Give me way make me address the convention
Tell me where's the old lady's pension
Hey
What's the plan for the youths in detention
And for the poor who need some attention
Tell me what about the crisis prevention
You all forgot these things when you win your election
When IMF do the lending
The gormandizer them descending
Raid the barn run away with the corn now
Tell me what them defending
The money done so them start the pretending
Like it's the roadway them use it mending
Think slavery days gone but still been going on now
When shall it come to an ending
There will not be a good future for the rich if there is no prospect for a better future for the pure... poor
