Lyrics: Maxx Banton

Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an give them education,
Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an no give them a gun.

All ah we know people inna Africa them hungrey,
them beg the HIV an no money.
We haffi send them clots, and we haffi send them food.
Why we send them AK and wonder if them shoot,
so STOP fi send them the AK, stop fi send them the gun,
stop fi send them Dynamite and no pass the bomb.
Give them education its all what them want,
if the sufferation decrease all of we have won.

Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an give them education,
Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an no give them a gun.

All wha' dem want is some education,
politrix now listen ah me plan,
mek them studdy fi free, dem need the paper fi buy nyam,
maybe dem haffi feed daughter and son,
dem spend the whole day ah work fi pay the flat,
and them parents, dem nah "Dagobert Duck"
Payment fi knowledge, me think you are some rats,
Education is a most and the studdytax sux.

Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an give them education,
Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an no give them a gun.

Studieren können momentan doch nur die Reichen,
denn ein normaler Student kann sich das nicht leisten,
es gibt soviele die aufs Studium scheißen,
davon sind die die keinen Bock auf arbeit haben die meisten,
es gibt auch soviele die würden gern studieren,
doch es ist viel zu teuer, wann werdet ihr dass kapieren,
mit ner Studiengebühr kann man doch nur verlieren,
habt ihr schiss, dass bald wir regieren?

Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an give them education,
Bring the Youth outta the Slum,
bring them to school an no give them a gun.
