Текст песни: Deportees (Things Change) + перевод

Yes, well, tek dis from Gargamel

Uddawise known as Buju

Anytime yuh go foreign neva you dare t’row stones behind you

'Ca wicked t’ings will tek yuh

Watch mi nuh!

T’ings change, now unno see sey life hard

Yuh neva used to sen' no money come a yard

Yuh wretch you, yuh spen' di whole a it abroad

Squander yuh money, now yuh livin' like dog

Boy get deport come dung inna one pants

Bruk an' have no money

But mi nuh response

No abiding city, wan pressure fi mi ranch

An' when 'I'm dey a foreign 'I'm did important

But 'I'm neva did a look back, neva did a glance

Neva know 'I'm would a tumble ova like an avalanche

Mama dung inna di hole, an' 'I'm don’t buy her a lamp

Not a line, not a letter, nor a fifty cent stamp

Him father want a shoes an' cannot go to

When mi hear di bwoy get, yuh know mi

Send 'I'm back

Uncle Sam, cause 'I'm deh dey an' a wrong

One drop inna di snow from about seventy-nine

Neva get di chance cause it wasn’t my time

An' mi hear yuh dey a foreign an' commit di most crime

An' mek a bag a money when mi couldn’t mek a dime

(re)memba one time gon how yuh used to brag

Benz an' Lexus a wey yuh did have

Clarks and Bally whey yuh got in a bag

Clothes a yuh no wear still have on nametag

Now yuh crash up, now yuh mash up, yuh neva did a plan

Yuh neva bid a check fi lay a foundation, mi holla

Back together again, mi baby fren'

Dust off yuh clothes, an' start from scratch again

Back together again, mi baby fren'

Dust off yuh clothes, an' start, nuh true

Caught up in di world of di rich and di famous

Golden livity it haffe luxurious

Have all di girls in di world in a surplus

Massage yuh shoulder, bump some a bust

Request yuh coffee an' she pour it from a thermos

Cool an' kick back an' just a watch delirious

Now yuh sorry, yuh neva (re)memba

Di almighty one in yuh days of splendor
