Imagine

Yo, Nuclear, Stephen (eeh)
Suppose Earth did a run as how we see it
As the new millennium yute, as the future (true)
As di Teacha (imagine)

Smoking without police provoking
Hennessy, the thugs dem a open, drinking
All a di Garrison dem linking
Sufferation disappear, strictly big pimpin'
Everybody boasty, European fashion mostly
Political system, sinking
House of Parliament, bare Rasta ruling
Computer rise every level of public schooling

(Imagine) me free up every prison
Who nah behave get the black rain drizzle
Legalize herbs cah you done a sell rizzla
Whole a we a one, stop gangs an'
Then demolish every board house
Build dem a mansion
Smooth out ghetto road, ghetto people
Traveling and not just the one to Clarendon
Every black man is the big man
No more guns and criminal
Each man bringing in a gun
Get fifteen million US, seven house pon the hill
Four Esca', four Range Rover
One thousand acres minimal, subliminal pon TV
No bootlegger 'round here, buy di artist dem CD
No HIV, no VD, no gonorrhea, no syphi'
No STD, yeah

(Imagine, im-im-imagine) money
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) power
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) respect
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) a di Teacha
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) big life
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) success
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) freedom
(Imagine) open up your mind black people
(Imagine)

Free for the ladies
Free kiddies' accessories for the babies
Hundred dollar gi' you Honda
Nanny fi a Lexus
One grand gi' you a Mercedes
No mad disease fi the cow
No pox fi the chicken
The wormeless dogs without rabies
School fee extinct like in the eighties
Free school bag and book fi turn pages
Minimum wages, ten thousand US, a week
That a fi the man weh just a sweep the street
Helper, gardener, man weh mix concrete
Like Geritol, everybody life complete

(Imagine) before me forget
I would ban the sale of cigarette
Every fisherman get a Rolls Royce boat
And a Bimmer net, how considerate (imagine)
Zero tolerance fi a rapist
If you murder, you get murder
Jamaica food selling inna every fast food store
Instead a dutty burger
Fi further, money fi third world yah
Sound system fi play louder
Dancehall music a someting fi we proud a
Imagine free health care fi the sickly
Prison fi a man weh no mind him pickney
Reggae music fi run the world strictly
Chris Kelly damaging fi bigger than Britney
Daniella name dem fi bigger than Whitney
Yeah, believe it or not like Ripley
Weh Teacha say?

(Imagine, im-im-imagine) triumph
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) glory
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) victory
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) the teacher
(Imagine, ima-ima-imagine) new world
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) timely
(Imagine, im-im-imagine) I'm out
(Imagine, ima-ima-imagine)
