Black Uhuru - Plastic Smile

Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.
Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.

Take you face from the ground girl, stop wearing frown,
I'm not a clown that laughs and jokes, while my structure in smoke.
Every man is born of truth, in the natural birth,
The things that the 'fari say to do now, shows what life really worth.
Don't show I, don't show I no teeth, teeth can't work.

Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.
Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.

She mummy came from a foreign land, with a whole lot of Babylon,
Now you gone a lucky land.
Girl! You've got to prove she lion!

Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.
Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.

You mummy been saying that, woh oh!
When you reach a foreign land,
You a get a future paradise;
But that noh right, that noh right, that noh right, in a Jah Jah sight!

A weh she say. She really say. She a say.
A weh she really tell Suzy (so she ?) say.
Don't show I, don't show I no teeth, teeth can't work.

Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.
Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.

Don't show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work.
