but they can't get no cab
to take them to the next dance.
229
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,600
You follow any of the sound system?
230
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,840
But I do love reggae music.
231

Who's Babylon? Babylon not a person.
243
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,960
It's de politrickster and the system
that oppresses all Black people.
244
