------------------..............
Oo..............,
Ooh... ooh...
Slave driver, the table is turned, (catch a fire).
Catch a fire, so you can get burned, now, (catch a fire).
Slave driver, the table is turned, (catch a fire).
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned, (catch a fire).
Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip; my blood runs cold.
I remember on the slave ship, how they brutalise our very souls.
Today they say that we are free; only to be chained in poverty.
Good God, I think it's il-literacy; it's only a machine that makes money.
Slave driver; the table is turned, y'all, (Oo..............h),
Slave driver, uh, the table is turned baby, now.
Catch a fire, so you can get burned, now.
Slave driver, the table is turned, (catch a fire).
Catch a fire, so you can get burned, now, (catch a fire).
Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip; my blood runs cold.
I remember on the slave ship, how they brutalise our very souls.
(Oo............ooh-ooh),
Oh God, have mercy on our souls!
Slave driver; the table is turned y'all, (catch a fire),
Catch a fire, so you can get burned, (catch a fire).
Slave driver; the table is turned y'all, (catch a fire),
Catch a fire, so you can get burned, (catch a fire).
(Fade)
