- Making History Lyrics / with translationsMekkin histri
Now tell mi someting
Mistah govahment
Tell mi someting
How lang yu really feel
Yu coulda keep wi andah heel
Wen di trute done reveal
Bout how yu grab an steal
Bout how yu mek yu crooked deal
Mek yu crooked deal?
Well doun in soutall
Where peach did get fall
Di Asians dem faam up a human wall
Gense di fashist an dem police sheil
An dem show dat di Asians gat plenty zeal
Gat plenty zeal, gat plenty zeal
It is noh mistri
Wi mekkin histri
It is noh mistri

Now tell mi someting
Mistah police spokesman
Tell mi someting
How lang yu really tink
Wi woulda tek yu batn lick
Yu jackboot kick

An yu racist pallyticks
Yu racist pallyticks?
Well doun in Bristal
