UB40 lyrics : "Sorry"

Please don't say sorry
Presuming a respect for what you say
If in your heart you mean it

Then you'll understand me feeling
You must prove it; sign the cheque without delay
Most humbly yours, four hundred years back pay


[Chorus:]
I'm not begging charity

Don't confuse the things I say
Give me what belongs to me
Give me what belongs to me


Just don't say sorry
As if that can excuse this tyranny

No value in your talking
Money speaks and bull%#@!'s walking
Round in circles re-inventing history

Trying to erase our memory

[Chorus]


If you say sorry
Can I $$#ume you've realised the shame

The seeds of your oppression
Fall and ripen with aggression
You can't hold us any longer with your chains

Time to compensate us for our claims

Don't bother wi' no sorry

Don't bother wi' delay
A four hundred years
Is not just the other day


I'm not begging charity
Don't confuse up your mind

Payment overdue
Fe a long long time


You come a we gate
No bother hesitate
You tek away we tings

Like a damn pirate
