Trouble, trouble, people in trouble
Trouble, trouble,
trouble's on the double
I sight danger from a distance
Still I'm putting up resistance
Right before my eyes, oh lord
I sight danger coming
from a distance
And I'm putting up resistance
Right before my eyes
Hey! Mama been asking daddy
what's the matter
The kids are hungry
and they need a little supper
The rent to pay won't
be out of date
Still I'm trying hard
to keep my face without a gutter
I know the time is running,
I know it's getting tougher
What's in it for me?
There's no way you can see
Eyesight danger
Coming from a distance
Danger
Still I'm putting up resistance
Eyesight danger
Right before my eyes
Mmmmm
Eyesight danger
Coming from a distance
Danger
Still I'm putting up resistance
Eyesight danger
Right before my eyes
Oh Lord, the rain is falling
at the dirty turf
Time is so hard me can't
get no work
What's up mankind?
It's the sign of the time
Knockin' on my door,
there's no one to answer
I check the pass, I'm safe,
we'll check it back later
No job for me,
there's no vacancy
Outside danger
Coming from a distance
Danger
Still I'm putting up resistance
Inside danger
Right before my eyes
Outside danger
Coming from a distance
Danger
Yes I'm putting up resistance
Outside danger
Right before my eyes
Now it's back to school
and school finna pay
And when they reach the closet,
turn them away
Go home to mama
Go and get your dan za
Now I'm trying hard
to keep my face at all the ghotta
What must I do?
Should I rob a turtle killer?
That's not right for me
Survival is the key
Danger
Oh, danger
What's of mankind?
It's a sign of no time
I, I
I sight danger from a distance
Still I'm putting up resistance
Right before my eyes
The rent to pay from
the other day
Still I'm trying hard
to keep my pace without a gutter
I know the time is up
and I know it's getting tougher
What's in it for me?
Cause there's no way
you can see
Danger
Danger
Eyesight
Danger
Higher Eyesight
Danger
From a distance
Danger
I'm putting up resistance
