Plastic Smile Lyrics

Black Uhuru Plastic Smile

Dont' show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work
Dont' 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
Dont' show I, Don't show I no teeth, teeth can't work

Dont' show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work
Dont' 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!

Dont' show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work
Dont' 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

[Michael Rose signature sound]

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

Dont' show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work
Dont' show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work

You mu...[Michael Rose signature sound]

Dont' show I yuh teeth, plastic smile can't work
