Lyrics

Didn't know she was crying
 Until now as she turns to look at me
 She said, "Boy oh boy, you bring tears to my eyes"
 I said, "What?"
 She said, "Boy oh boy, you bring tears to my eyes"
 Bob Marley said
 "How long shall they kill our prophets
 While we stand aside and look?"
 Little did he know that eventually
 The enemy will stand aside and look
 While we slash and kill our own brothers
 Knowing that already
 They are the victims of the situation
 Still licking wounds from brutality
 Still licking wounds from humiliation
 She said these words
 And the wrinkles on her face
 Became perfect trail for the tears, then she said
 "We are the victims every time
 We've got double troubles every time
 We are the victims every time
 We've got double troubles every time
 We are the victims every time
 We've got double troubles every time"
 ♪
 She took me outside to the churchyard
 Showed me graves on the ground
 Then she said
 "There lies a man who fought for equality
 There lies a boy who died in his struggle
 Can all these heroes die in vain?"
 While we slash and kill our own brothers?
 Knowing that already, they are the victims of the situation
 Still licking wounds, from brutality
 Still licking wounds, from humiliation
 ♪
 We are the victims every time
 We've got double troubles every time
 We are the victims every time
 We've got double troubles every time
 We are the victims...
