Juvenile in a Jail
( Lyrics : Carol Josephs aka Guru Warrior )

slippery out there and terrible out there
be juvenile in a jail x4 you hear
be juvenile in a jail me tell you say be little youth in a jail
little youth from uptown / little youth from downtown / youth in the ghetto and country come a town /whole heap a juvenile in a jail
be little youth in a jail /‘cause in a Babylon dem can get no work / watch it what dem put on dem pants and dem shirt / mama wonder if dem going to church
big dog and puppy stand up ‘pon turf / looking for food fi eat ‘pon the turf /too much war in babylon / too much wicked things in Babylon
be juvenile run downtown , uptown , country ah me say inna New York /be juvenile run ‘pon on the Bronx / be juvenile run inna England
be juvenile hold it off so strong
Harry Potter x2 eh say you a sorcerer
how you make the youth dem life so even get more better
turn it in a gold and turn it from copper /youth dem getting worse all over /be juvenile in a jail pack up in a jail
pure juvenile in a jail

we haffi make some a dem yes come out
the youth dem travel with something in dem hand
be juvenile in a jail x4 / you hear be under age inna jail
war & crime dat beat everything
youth dem in the world have nothing doing
work dem a work and still can’t buy a building / dem want to live in a paradise but dem living a sin we ask dem what a gwaan and dem tell we everything
be juvenile in a jail/ be under age inna jail
It wicked inna babylon it terrible in a babylon
be juvenile in a jail /be under age inna jail
so babylon a lock dem up and take dem off of the streets
juvenile dem have nowhere to sleep
mother & father dem no have no money dem no have no work in industry
no work at all for the whole family juvenile dem a touch road juvenile dem a touch streets
look how the juvenile dem a banging the streets
from left to right dem standing on the road wonder if dem have something under dem clothes so the juvenile dem take over the road babylon system set dem the gold so juvenile mash up outta road
be juvenile in a jail x4
