If you don't see me smiling
It got nothing to do with you
My papa been on the rock so long

Inherited a permanent screw (repeat 3 times)

If you don't see me smiling

It ain't no concern of you
My mama been on the rock for so long
Inherited a permanenet screw (repeat 3 times)


So you won't even know me
'Cause you can't look me in the eye

Well onlyl then my friend you would see
That I am a rebel in disguise
Said I am a rebel in disguise

And I am a rebel in disguise
We are rebels in disguise
We are rebels in disguise


If you don't catch me smiling
Said I have got serious on my mind

Want to tell you a little story
We are living in a serious time (repeat)


Said a fire deh, said a fire deh
Fire deh a mus mus tall
You think a cool breeze

Life is real hard
But you think it gonna ease
By letting the pressure pile up on me

The baby crying

You come and ask us for a dollar bill

And we give you ten
Simply mean you should not be coming back again
Simply mean you go home and learn to help yourself


You are putting, you are putting on the pressure
Making it, making it much harder


If you don't see me smiling
It ain't got nothing to do with you

(repeat 3 times)
Then again you might have done something wrong
And you don't know where you belong

(repeat 3 times)
So you won't really know us


We are rebels in disgusie
Said I am a rebel in disguise (repeat 2 times)
And we are rebels in disguise (repeat 2 times)

Fire de a mus mus tail
And you think a cool breeze
Your life is real hard but you think it's gonna ease

By letting the pressure pile up on me
