Ziggy Marley, The Melody Makers - G7 lyrics

Seven richest countries in the world
Now them have a little meeting
And them a plan to keep and oppress the poor
So them have a little meeting
But when them think then
Thing goes another way
Oh, when them think then
Thing goes another way

Did you hear about these meetings?
No, you won't find poor countries there
Because of capitalist greed
Revolution seem to be the only play
It may be an old fashion way of thinking
But, I believe in the people and these aims

'Cause when them think then things
Go the people way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh
When them think then things go
The the people way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh

These countries want to stay on top
So they'll find any way
To them third world people life is but
A small price to be paid
They think they're great feeling no
One can touch them
Well them have a next thing comin'

'Cause when them think then things
Go the people way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh
Oh when them think then
Thing goes another way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh

Seven richest things in the world
What do they do for the people?
Look at America the so-called best
How many homeless? Where the money went?
In the sky on weapons of death
Why don't they write the
Needy some more checks?

'Cause when them think then
Thing goes another way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh
When them think then things go
The the people way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh
'Cause when them think then
Thing goes another way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh
When them think then things go
The the people way
One day dem deh deh dem no deh deh

And revolution seem to be the only way
And revolution seem to be the only way
