Warning, this is the chief of police speaking,
Do not steal Police hate competition.
Where we gonna run
Where we gonna hide
You've got the right to remain silent,
But forever they were brought here to protect us
They were brought here not to hurt
But now they hurt us everyday
You see, police have joined forces
With criminals
Don't steal, police hate competition.
We can't sit down - something must be done
Catching the bad guys in real life
Is not as easy as it is in the movies.
We see James Bond (007)
Eddie Murphy (Beverly Hills Cop)
Chasing bad guys all the time
But police in real life
Have joined forces with criminals
Don't steal, police hate competition
We can't sit down - something must be done.
Our life has got to be like
Life in the movies
Where the good guys always
Win in the end
Chorus
Life in the movies
How can we expect them
To serve and protect
The community, if they themselves
Are the bad guys
Police have joined forces with criminals
Stand up and fight, no one is safe
Chorus till fade...
Lucky Philip Dube (1964-2007), noto semplicemente come Lucky Dube, è stato un leggendario cantante e musicista sudafricano di fama internazionale. Nato in una famiglia povera nella provincia del KwaZulu-Natal, Dube iniziò la sua carriera musicale negli anni '80 con il genere reggae, mescolando temi sociali e politici con melodie ritmate e coinvolgenti. La sua musica divenne un potente strumento per denunciare l'apartheid e promuovere la pace e la giustizia sociale in Sudafrica. Dube ha pubblicato oltre 20 album durante la sua carriera, vendendo milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. Alcuni dei suoi brani più famosi includono "Slave", "Prisoner", "Remember", e "Taxman". La sua musica ha superato i confini nazionali, raggiungendo un pubblico internazionale e contribuendo a diffondere la cultura reggae su scala globale. Purtroppo, Dube è stato assassinato nel 2007 durante un tentativo di rapina, lasciando un vuoto incolmabile nella scena musicale africana. La sua eredità continua ad ispirare generazioni di musicisti e attivisti per la giustizia sociale.
