Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is the musicians news
And now here is your news
[Verse 2]
Guys judging man music openly on the air
Show no little or no appreciation for the words they prepare
They have no idea, not even a clue
Of how reggae was created by me and by you
[Verse 3]
Bias and favouritism to abandon our music
The ones who would buy it, they now refuse it
Fighting a million forests of new products on new labels
Stopping a million sales by them fairy tales and fables
[Verse 4]
The time: a minute after news time
Continuing further
[Verse 5]
Defeating the efforts of small producers on their label
The jury is in fury against rockers on their turntable
It's time we see the effects they have caused
By judging us wrongfully by their self-made laws
[Verse 6]
No discretion is used, no discretion at all
They only make I man suffer the more they hear I man bawl
Airplay might be essential, airplay might be vital
But right now it is insignificant, because I man going international
[Verse 7]
That's end of the news
Now this is your weather forecast
[Verse 8]
Very bright at first
During the afternoon, scattered showers of African smoke all over the studio
Tonight, fair to fine
Chalice blazing, herb smoking
And the biggest rocking with reggae music all over
[Verse 9]
Over
Studio, over
Studios over
Can you hear me over there?
Yeah, loud and clear, loud and clear
Yes! What's happening over there right now?
Smokes, smoke
Studio is very smoky, like I say
Ah, you mean cloudy, cloudy
You mean that the studio is cloudy
Yes, come on, come on
It's cloudy, cloudy
Yeah, tons of smoke
Smoke
Musicians working
Musicians don't joke
[Verse 10]
Yeah
Inspiration, inspiration
Inspiration and education
From your number-one station
Rocker station
All over the nation
We deal with communication
[Verse 11]
For more music, please tune into your station
Your main man
On the controls
Dread
At the Controls
Mikey
Dread
At the Controls

You're listening to the "Dread at the Controls" music station
That rules the nation
