Jimmy Cliff - Terror lyrics

September 11th well it was Hell in Heaven

A Hell of a day in the US of A

Terror hit the World Trade Center
In New York City and the Pentagon
In the city of Washington

I saw it on TV
I thought that I was watching a movie
Like it was World War I I I
In the land of the brave and
The home of the free

Where was 007 september 11th
And Superman when they called 911

Now there's a war against terror, terror
Terror fighting terror terror, terror
Oh what a horror
Now there's a war against terror, terror
Terror fighting terror terror, terror
Oh what a horror

Terror, terror, terror
We must have a better tomorrow
We must have a better tomorrow now

September 11th another war in Heaven
All who were there
Said it was a living nightmare

But for every action
There has to be a reaction
This is the law of nature
Now we're living in the future

So when you're digging a ditch
I think you better dig two
One for the other man and one for you

And when you're pointing a finger
When three points back at you
Be sure your hands are clean
I think you know what I mean
'Cause when you war against terror, terror
Terror fighting terror terror, terror
Oh what a horror

Terror, terror biological
Terror, terror environmental

Terror, terror, terror
We must have a better tomorrow
We must have a better tomorrow now

11th of September the world will always
The year 2001 a new era begun

This was a wake-up call
To nations great and small

Terror been with you all the time
But you never paid it no mind

Oh, it's the Armageddon
A clash of civilization
With terror fighting terror
Tell me who can be the hero

I read it in Revelation
That there would be lamentation

A tale of God and the Devil
But good must overcome evil
