Akimbo Uk - The Rap Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Thatcher taking on the unions in [?] shoes
Giving them an offer they just can't refuse
Four million unemployed, but who wants a job?
Overtime shift and 10 hour slog
It's 1985, did the book come true?
Did anybody notice Big Brother watching you?
Funny enough, it didn't bother me
He's been watching my ass since 1953

[Chorus]
We better get out now
It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take a long, long, long
Time

[Verse 2]
Got the [?] on the map, with a brand new dance
Build some decent houses? No chance
The crumbs from the slums, put them on TV
Whitе pockets grow from a lack of misery
A steady infiltration of thе right-wing breed
They want repatriation, want to send us back to Leeds
Governments embarrassment, they'd rather turn their backs
They make their agents lords and they paper up the cracks
[Chorus]
You better get out now
It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take a long, long, long
Time

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You better get out now
It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take a long, long, long
Time

[Verse 3]
If you're a budding athlete and your face is white
You can be a citizen overnight
Never mind the blacks who are waiting in line
When the price is right, forget about that
Don't rock the boat too much, it might just sink
Drops in the ocean are bigger than you think
That's right folks, it's an economic game
But the white wash won't wash

[Chorus]
You better get out now
It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take a long, long, long
[Outro]
Time, time, time
Time, time, time
Time, time, time
Time, time, time

Time, time, time
It's gonna take, it's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take, it's gonna take a long time
