Lyrics Jimmy Cliff

Terror

September 11th

Well it was Hell in Heaven

A Hell of a day

In the US of A

Terror hit the World Trade Center

In New York City

And the Pentagon

In the city of Washington

I saw it on T.V.

I thought that I was watching a movie

Like it was World War III

In the land of the brave and the home of the free

Where was 007

September 11th

And Superman

When they called 911

Now there's a war against terror, terror

Terror fighting terror

Terror, terror

Oh what a horror

Now there's a war against terror, terror

Terror fighting terror

Terror, terror

Oh what a horror

Terror, terror, terror

We must have a better tomorrow

We must have a better tomorrow now

September 11th

Another war in Heaven

All who were there

Said it was a living nightmare

But for every action

There has to be a reaction

This is the law of nature

Now we're living in the future

So when you're digging a ditch

I think you better dig two

One for the other man

And one for you

And when you're pointing a finger

When three points back at you

Be sure your hands are clean

I think you know what I mean

'Cause when you war against terror, terror

Terror fighting terror

Terror, terror

Oh what a horror

Terror, terror

Biological

Terror, terror

Environmental

Terror, terror, terror

We must have a better tomorrow

We must have a better tomorrow now

11th of September

The world will always

The year 2001

A new era begun

This was a wake-up call

To nations great and small

Terror been with you all the time

But you never paid it no mind

Oh, it's the Armageddon

A clash of civilization

With terror fighting terror

Tell me who can be the hero

I read it in Revelation

That there would be lamentation

A tale of God and the Devil

But good must overcome evil
