Suspicious behavior
Must look
What is the criteria?
Must look, must look
Is it the way that you act?
Must look, must look
Or is it your color?
Cho!
Suspicious
I went to the garage
Something was wrong with my accelerator
They said they would fix it
Leave it with us and come back later
So where shall I go now?
What shall I do?
Where shall I venture?
I'll go to the center
Haul up on a bus
I'll have an adventure
Standing at the bus stop
Inna the winter, inna December
Mi body a shiver
Mi nose a run, mi spine a quiver
The two policeman
Were looking at me like they were in a temper
I know I'm not wanted
I'm sure if I was, I woulda remember
They got presumptuous
Situation looking dangerous
I coulda been nervous
But inna the Father, I man put mi trust
It coulda get serious
But mi decide fi cool and never cuss
CS gas dem waan buss
Mi say, officer, you never had to make no fuss
Look how all the people started looking at us
You ask me why I'm at the bus stop, it is obvious
Officer, I'm waiting for a bus
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Through all the fuss, mi miss the bus
And mi say, "Cho", and kiss mi teeth
Walking good fi mi, make mi exercise mi feet
Mi inna the driver seat inna mi car most of the week
Help mi heart beat, I will go walking down the street
I heard some people shouting with some words I can't repeat
I was not doing nothing, so I went and take a peep
At the entrance of a shop, I saw four people in a heap
At the bottom was a Black youth, so crush, he couldn't speak
The man dem pon di top a tell the crowd dem, "Catch a thief"
A citizens arrest and dem a wait fi di police
Roughing up the youth, he got an elbow inna him teeth
When out drop, the youth received
The shop keeper said, "It wasn't that Black youth there
He bought his merchandise fair and square
You make the thief get away, you make the thief get clear
It was that white youth with the blonde hair"
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Some muggers are Black, that is true
But don't you know that white people mug people too?
Indian mugger mug you fi a bindaloo
A Chiney mugger mug you with a bit of kung fu
You got mugger say dem a Muslim, mugger say dem a Jew
Mugger every race, every color, every hue
Mugger don't got no color, that is my point of view
They only want to blame it on me and you
Cho, you know
You know it no right
Associating color with the crime
No, it no nice
But you know it happens all the time
When I'm at the airport
They always seem to pick me out the line
They want my passport
Dem look at it hard, dem can't believe it's mine
Where am I going? Where am I from?
What's my flight and what's the time?
Concentrating on me
Forgetting about the man behind
And a him a smuggle the drinks, the cigarettes, and all the wine
And him gone long time
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Must look suspicious
Suspicious
