Glam Rock : Suzi Quatro répond à Marc Bolan
> "One Inch Man" de Marc Bolan / T-Rex

Lyrics :
Met a woman she's spouting prose
She's got luggage eyes and a roman nose
Her body is slung from side to side
Need a lift she said much obliged
I'm riding piggy-back
Then I come to her shack
We go inside the place is a mess
She said my name's the liquid poetess
She unties her mouth
And her buckskin dress
She drinks from a bottle
labeled tenderness
I'm in one hand in the other's a can
She puts me in the can
And smiles through the wall
I got the horror's cos I'm one inch tall
Next thing I know's a girl by my side
Dressed in a bayleaf she's trying to hide
I asked her name she said Germaine
Do the rock do the one inch rock.

Lyrics :
Well you call your mama tiger
And we all know you are lying
And your boyfriend´s name is eagle
And he lives up in the sky (High, high)
Watch out the tiger don´t go claw the eagle´s eye
But let the eagle take the tiger by surprise
(Scratch out her eyes)
Refrain:
So make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can
Well can the can
Well your sister´s got the feline touch
She touches up your mind
And your eagle lover likes his little bit of evil
Loving all the time
Don´t let the cat get into the eagle´s nest at night
Because the eagle could say “yes” without a fight
(Scratch out her eyes)
Refrain:
So make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can
Well can the can
Ooh can the can
(Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can
(Can the can honey)
Uhh huh can the can
(Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can
(Can the can honey)
Can the can
(Can the can honey)
Ooh can the can
(Can the can honey)
Ah honey,
Honey
Honey
Honey, honey, honey
Make a stand for your man honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can

1978 : "One Love Peace Concert", Kingston, Jamaïque.
Concert au cours duquel Bob Marley et Peter Tosh
réussissent à faire monter sur la scène les deux principaux opposants
politiques de l'ile, Michael Manley (premier ministre issu du People's
National Party) et Edward Seaga (du Jamaican Labour Party). Ce concert
avait pour but de faire prendre conscience de l'état de guerre civile
dans lequel se trouvait le ghetto de Kingston, du fait de la guerre des
gangs du ghetto de Kingston, en partie financée par les deux partis
politiques jamaïcains de l'époque.

Steel Pulse, “Not King James Version”, from the album Babylon the Bandit (1986)
A dis ya version
A no King James version
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden
Hidden from me I was never told
Ancient prophets black and bold
Like Daniel, King David and Abraham
Israel were all black men
I don't wanna lose you
Japhet tried his best to erase
The godly parts we played
I says he came and took
And never mention in his books...no
CHORUS
In Esau's chapter of history
So little mention of you and me
We rulers of kingdoms and dynasties
Explored this Earth for centuries
I don't wanna lose you
Phoenicians, Egyptians and the Moors
Built civilization, that's for sure
Creators of the alphabet
While the West illiterate, yeh
CHORUS
African heritage
I don't wanna lose ya
Oh, no
Slavery came and took its toll
In the name of John Bull Dog
Said we turned ours backs on God
Lost the powers that we had
Now our backs against the wall
Ask ourselves about the fall
Rise rise rise
Hold on to your culture
CHORUS
I don't wanna lose ya
I don't wanna lose ya
Never let them fool you

Aswad, “Drum and Bass Line”
In a different style
Dub plate spinning all the while
What the people wanting
Dub plate till a morning
That's what they all are shouting for
Can you hear them
Seems they just can't refuse it
Just go to bounce and use it
Seems they were born with rhythm within
And you couldn't give up now
You know you couldn't give up now
Couldn't give up now
Dancing to the rhythm of the drum and the bass line
To the question that you're asking
It's clear to see my friend
Time before when we use music
To cool our very soul
And when slave master beat I with the whip
And he made I jump and twist
We use that music to cool us down I say
You couldn't give up now
You know you couldn't give up now
Couldn't give up now
What you do dancing to the rhythm of the drum and bass line
To the question that you're asking
It's clear to see my friend
Time before when we use music
To cool our very soul
And when slave master beat I with the whip
And he made I jump and twist
We use that music to cool us down i say
You couldn't give up now
You know you couldn't give up now
Couldn't give up now
What you do dancing to the rhythm of the drum and bass line

Bob Marley, “Slave Driver”, from the album Catch a Fire
Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh. Oo-oo-ooh! Oo-oo-ooh.

Catch a fire, so you can get burn, now. (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire: gonna get burn. (catch a fire) Wo, now!
Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip,
My blood runs cold.
I remember on the slave ship,
How they brutalize the very souls.
Today they say that we are free,
Only to be chained in poverty.
Good God, I think it's illiteracy;
It's only a machine that makes money.
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all. Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh.
Slave driver, uh! The table is turn, baby, now; (catch a fire)

How can we sing King Alfa song

Look, oh Lord, they brought us down here
Have us in bondage, right through these years
Fussing and fighting, among ourselves
Nothing to achieve this way, it's worser than hell, I say
Get up and fight for your rights my brothers
Get up and fight for your rights my sisters
Took us away from civilization
Brought us to slave in this big plantation

Nothing to achieve this way, it's worser than hell, I say

Get up and fight for your right, my sister

Gregory Isaacs, “Slave Master”, from the album The Essential Gregory Isaacs
No competition, I make you my decision, yeah
Everytime I hear the music and I make a dip, a dip
Slave master comes around and spank I with his whip, the whip
But if I don’t get my desire
Then I'll set the plantations in fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
‘Cause everytime we do the work sometimes we are hurt, oh yeah
Boss never do a thing but hold on to his girth
But if I don’t get my desire
Then I'll set the plantations in fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
Everytime I hear the music and I move my hip, my hip
Slave master comes around and spank I with his whip, a whip
Slave master, I’m the shepherd you're my pastor
Say you rock ?? so long we make the work
And if I don’t get my desire
Then I'll set the station on fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
But if I don’t get my desire
Then I set the stations in fire
My temperature is getting much higher

They took us away from our homeland
They took us away from our homeland
And we are slaving down here in Babylon
And we are slaving down here in Babylon
They are waiting on an opportunity
They are waiting on an opportunity
For the Black Starliner which is to comeCulture, Black Starliner, from the album Two Sevens Clash
Do you remember the days of slav'ry? (Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
And they beat us (Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
And they worked us so hard (Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
And they used us (Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
Till they refuse us (Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
Do you remember the days of slav'ry? (Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)

Gregory Isaacs, “Slave Master”, from the album The Essential Gregory Isaacs
No competition, I make you my decision, yeah
Everytime I hear the music and I make a dip, a dip
Slave master comes around and spank I with his whip, the whip
But if I don’t get my desire
Then I'll set the plantations in fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
‘Cause everytime we do the work sometimes we are hurt, oh yeah
Boss never do a thing but hold on to his girth
But if I don’t get my desire
Then I'll set the plantations in fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
Everytime I hear the music and I move my hip, my hip
Slave master comes around and spank I with his whip, a whip
Slave master, I’m the shepherd you're my pastor
Say you rock ?? so long we make the work
And if I don’t get my desire
Then I'll set the station on fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
But if I don’t get my desire
Then I set the stations in fire
My temperature is getting much higher
Got to get what I require
