Burning Spear - Best of the Fittest

2000 Years

It's more than 2000 years
Since I come here
And all I can say is

Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)

Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)
Yeah
Puru-puru-puru

Hear dem say
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)

Using my brothers and my sisters
I wonder why
They're using my brothers and my sisters
I wonder why

Hear dem say
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)

Hear dem
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)

Give us a helping hand, Jah-Jah
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)

Don't feel so sad, so son, feel like say hello
But if I should
They woulda beat I down

All I can say is
"Puru-puru-puru"
All I can say

Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)
Jah-Jah!

Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)

Give us a helping hand
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why? Oh, why? Oh, why? (Puru-puru-puru)
