Jersey, officially the Bailiwick of Jersey, French: Bailliage de Jersey ( /ˈdʒɜrzi/, French: [ʒɛʁzɛ]; Jèrriais: Jèrri), is a British Crown Dependency off the coast of Normandy, France. As well as the island of Jersey itself, the bailiwick includes two groups of small islands that are no longer permanently inhabited, the Minquiers and Écréhous, and the Pierres de Lecq and other rocks and reefs.
Jersey is a self-governing parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarchy, with its own financial, legal and judicial systems.
The island of Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands. Although the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey are often referred to collectively as 'the Channel Islands', they are not a constitutional or political unit. Jersey has a separate relationship to the British Crown from the other Crown Dependencies of Guernsey and the Isle of Man. It is not part of the United Kingdom, and has an international identity separate from that of the UK but the United Kingdom is constitutionally responsible for the defence of Jersey. Jersey is not a part of the European Union but has a special relationship with it, being treated as part of the European Community for the purposes of free trade in goods.

Plot
In December, 1944, three US soldiers sneak ashore on Luzon to gather intelligence about Japanese troops in advance of the American armada. The three are to reconnoiter and report via their shortwave radio. Lieutenant Craig may not have the stomach for killing; Jersey is a cynical sergeant; Bartlett is the radio man who also speaks Japanese. They're soon in touch with guerrillas, led by Paco, a tough, skeptical school teacher. The Japanese learn the Americans are in the area and take school children hostage until the Filipinos find, arrest, and turn over the GIs. Can this tiny squad make allies, save the children, get and transmit the information, and live to tell the tale?

It took courage to get to Luzon - and blood and guts to move every mile beyond!
Jersey: Yeah, we're all gonna die anyway - tomorrow, next week, 30 years from now. Did that little thought ever penetrate your thick skull?::Burnett: Yeah, once when I was a boy, but naturally I dismissed it as being too outrageous.
(Queen Latifah)
Yo what's up this is Queen Latifah in the house
Definetely representin Jersey on the love love
Coolin' in the county; shoot (?)
But damn I miss home
[Chorus 4X]
I can't. forget New Jersey
(Verse 1: Queen Latifah)
When I think of home I think of a place where theres no over-flowin
And all my family and peeps I knew when I was growin
Mommy and daddy made me proud to in Owens
So for me to keep goin, I would become
Her eminental royal highness
The Queen Latifah; no doubt; one of New Jersey's finest
So, said it all
Get up on all of my own
Cause Jersey's what I think about when I think of home
Don't let know one get close to you except the chosen
Stick with the ones who meant the most to you
when you were broke and blue, that's how fam do
That's how you stay true around these snakes
that freakin' smile when they hate you
I'm quick to take the ride down for in-town
(Just another day living on a down)
My experience legit, my rhymes is on hit
It's mad truth to the room where we the shit; I can't forget
[Chorus]
(Verse 2: Queen Latifah)
I used to work at Burger King but after takin orders
I used to take the path to Latin Quarters across the waters
Where I learned to do the Who, yo, I couldn't stop
I brought it back around the way to show the peple on my block
Teacher, teacher, tell me how you do it
It looks so simple like that there's nothin to it
So, we meet in Irvington and after school I run
To the Willobrook Mall, there was Solamon
I had a talent for getting up for gear
A petty thief, small time crook of the year
But I chilled cause I had bigger dreams than to steal
And Ramsey came for me and Patchy to put our voices on a reel
And I could hear myself on the radio
"45 King Special Red Alert Show"
Cause that's what life was all about to me
All E-E flavor you did it, represent Jersey
[Chorus]
(Verse 3: Queen Latifah)
I think about my mom and my brothers when I'm all swoll
Shock, Kim, when I'm all swoll
My baby sister. when I'm all swoll
Hostan, when I'm all swoll
Ill-Town, when I all swoll
Jill-Town, J.C, when I'm all swoll
(?) to (?) so on, when I'm all swoll
Recognize the whole mama soul
We got Naughty
In another words we got Nicky
We got Redman, the Order Facts and Whitney (?)
Bruce Springsteen, and a house ah blacks
Shaquille O'Neal, oh he'll catch rack
Tisha Campbell, Jerry Lewis, Tony Bennett
Back spin, or spin it,
Thursday peppermint and I'm in it
Shag do's, I does no fo's in the spot
Cause them peeps is my peeps and my back is got
Nuf' respect to your burough, your block
You're black; I love to see us move as a flock
Unscrapped, against each other
No body armor
Nobody harms a hair on a head, everything calmer
We ghetto stars and fools
We paid the dues
We made the blues
So come on with the come on
And get down with the get down
I'm down with my hometown sound
You ever felt like you've had the wool pulled right over your eyes?
He never ever quite figured it out which path to choose
An instinct. A gut feeling
Mind's reeling over situations
Lost into darkness he falls away again
The spotlight's on him and his life
He hears the call to make a move
But what has he got to show for nothing
I never really did learn my lessons well
You can't fight the time cause only time will tell
Sometimes I wonder if I'm hearing that...who's calling my name?
And there's something guiding me through to the end
Just take my hand
Questions with no answer
You can't stop it it's just a feeling
How fare will he go before he realizes?
The spotlight's on him, and his life
He hears the call, to make a move
But what has he got to show for nothing
You've gotta turn it around. Gotta find a way
Gotta turn around. Gotta turn it around
Gotta turn around. In the end it's the same
Gotta turn around. Gotta turn it around
And in the end it's the same
It's how you get there now
I never really did learn my lessons well

If you're worthy

Jersey was a waitress in a dirty old club
The Dozen Diamond and The Chinese Tattoo
she poured drinks with the grace of a queen
but no one seems to know what i mean
no one seems to know what i mean
Step out on the boulevard
lets go to town
we can share the cab fare
let your hair down
hold me close now, my newspaper gal
I hear the barley calling my name
So I put on my best shoes and head down New St.
Where the welcome mat hurries me in
A pint glass awaits to drown my sins
Looking in the windowpane, looking in the glass.
Seeing my reflection, seeing my past
Sitting at the same bar, playing that same game
Drinking that same beer, killing that same pain
Well little Mikey was only 16
He's on top of the punk rock scene
Rasing his fist for a political fight
And he can't do wrong and only a right
And his mother can't tell him
No one can tell him
He wagered this war he's gonna win the fight
Thirty years later, still singing for tonight
[Chorus]
Saturday night, reminisce and renegade. We're on a mission to no submission.
The brigade, the youth is on the loose tonight and we shout it out loud!
Saturday night! Saturday night! Saturday night! We've got to do it right!
Saturday night! Saturday night! Saturday night! Tonight's the night!
The clock strikes 12, the sun has gone down
The party's risin' up, risin' up in your hometown
And the spirit's in the street, and the fire's in their eyes and
They're living for the moment, their passion never dies
And she looks him in the face, she said she would never leave and
Her whispers still haunt him and he still believes
[Chorus]
We'll go to the bottom of every bottle
The end of theline on every story
Those times we miss, those times we reminisce
Those were the good old days
I hold in heart and cherish. Never forget
[Chorus]
Tonight's the night we've gotta do it right!
The clock strikes 12, the sun's gone down
The party's rises up, risin' up in Burlington.
Saturday night, reminisce and renegade. We're on a mission to no submission.
What is the mission today?
Produce without injury, (where'd you go?)
Can you feel the steel, the steel?
It's in my mouth my hair it's in my head (where'd you go?)
I wear the scars of my own actions (where'd you go?)
Shop floor, turn up the radio.
I've got this boss, "son" he said
What are you doing here?
There's more to life, you've got much more to give
This is it for me. Don't end up in here
If I'm the first mother fucker in
I'm the last mother fucker to leave (where'd you go?)
I'm tired of working for the weekend and that sip of beer (where'd you go?)
I wear the scars of my own actions (where'd you go?)
Shop floor, turn up the radio.
I've got this boss, "son" he said
What are you doing here?
There's more to life, you've got much more to give
This is it for me. Don't end up in here
Have I wasted all these years?
No there's no reason, it's just not clear
No son, you've made an impact on our lives
You and your friends remember...
This is it for me. Don't end up in here.
More than a year's gone by since I lost my mother
Since she left I've thought well what's the point
I've thought well I don't know what I'm doing here
What's the point if the meaning's not clear?
But after crying, the clouds are clearing
My mother's teaching me to make a mark
You see she, she lived with pride and she, spoke her mind and
When she left, that's what she left behind
[Chorus]
The point we're missing
It's not what you had, it's how you lived
The point we're missing
It's who you were and what you did
Don't need no diamond rings
Don't need to live like kings
And I still don't know what we're doing here
Try to make a mark and make my presence clear
To challenge right wing culture and move beyond
Live for life, it's not too far gone
Exist or live, is time well spent?
And once you start thinking then you'll know
[Chorus]
It's and Iconoclast, has your moment passed?
There's time to make it right
You've got to try and to try cause there's just no giving in
I'm on the outside, on the outside looking in
I saw the battle of a lifetime
And she tried, and we tried, and we're never giving in
Because I'll see you on the bright side
[Chorus]
It's how you live and it's who you were
Intertwined around your sticky fingers I fall
Into the traps you lay, yeah the traps you lay
You slipped inside my head
I washed my thoughts. Unthinkable
You won't resurrect me
You can't resurrect me
I won't die for you and I won't kill for you
You won't resurrect me
I felt your heat, I felt it colder than ice
Like your red glazed eyes burning in the back of my head
You feed and twist until I fall and I fall
Into the black scarred skies and your bloody sunsets
You won't resurrect me
You can't resurrect me
I won't die for you and I won't kill for you
You won't resurrect me
A blackened room, Richmond 2001
A whiskey poison brings out the evil one
A crucifixion, suffocation of mind
A bad religion to set the outlines
Tossing, turning, are you one of the damned?
I won't give in, no I'm not giving in
You won't resurrect me
You can't resurrect me
I won't die for you and I won't kill for you
Late night conversations in a Jersey diner…I can’t sleep.
Me & the phone & a piece of pie, but the coffee is weak.
She needs to know,She needs to know,I need to tell
her.Jersey, you see,Jersey, you see,I think she needs me.
Next flight out,Next flight out,Next flight out to
Indy.Just for now,Just for now,I need to know if she
loves me.
I’ll fly away.
Hold my hand, so I can breathe.
Saying goodbye was the worst thing for me.
It’s been a long time, since I’ve seen you last.
And it’s been a while, since these photographs.
And nothing ever stayed with us, the way we hoped they
would…
Goodnight, wherever you may be.
I’m coming home soon.
I’m coming home soon.
I’m on my way home,
A good job, good home
But you chose the streets as a place to go
Taking on the uniform to wear loud and proud
But underneath it all, a teenage suburban girl
With her parents and a brother and a sister that miss her
And they can't figure out why she's not listening
[Chorus]
And she's sleeping 6 feet deep tonight
Sleeping...
She's got old bones and dirty coffins
They can't be better than broken homes
Lonely fossil lying in the cold
Unconditional love and protection from the cold
It all came down to one long cruel night
She took but one shot to the vein
And time stood still she'll never be the same
And now she realizes the streets aren't fun and games
[Chorus]
Feel the chill as time stood still
The rain came and the angels sang
I watched the people come and go
The black cars lined row by row
And Jenny's parents are left to weep
While her spirit sleeps on the concrete
[Chorus]
And it's do or die, and death or glory
When choose the streets stricken by the devils and the cheats
He counted his cards but there's nothing left in the deck
Drugs money and alcohol broke his hollow soul
Now he's on his knees screaming, self inflicted addiction
Too far gone, too far gone to take my helping hand
[Chorus]
Generation, Generation, Genocide
Kamikaze casualties are falling by my side
It's a Generation, Generation, Genocide
Kamikaze casualties are falling by my side
I'll see the sun rising
Rising up again
I wish I could say the same for my fallen friends
Well I've been there, done that, and I've walked that line
Bloode knuckles and rumbles, it's love hate with this town
I said your own friends run around town, throwing your name on the ground
No back! No spine! Ain't no friend of mine!
The hourglass is slipping, slipping away
She knows the clock is ticking and she knows her number is coming up
She can't shake this feeling it won't go away
And inside she's screaming and she knows the angels are coming soon
And she knows the angels are coming soon
[Chorus]
And she tries and she lies, says she's ok
Always thinking of others first
And never cries and she tries to put things off
She's still smiling, and lives for the day
And when people see her. They just look away.
They think she's just a dreamer
Cause they don't know what she's going through
She doesn't accept the sentence she battles it out
And in her mind she fights it
And then she falls asleep and thinks of her boys
And she falls asleep and thinks of her boys
[Chorus]
I've been around and I've seen the worlds collide
From the east coast to California
I'm tryin' to live this dream and the streets won't take my name
And I'll take life by the throat, fuck you!
You might think that we've got it made
And the crowd is huge and they're calling our name
But for now I'm alone in this city tonight
All alone, these city streets are cold
Crossfire into situations time after time
We'll finish this up tonight, not somewhere down the line
I've got few good friends by my side
And they're with me till the end of this ride
We'll never know unless we try
[Chorus]
So this time, I'm not going out like this
Caught in the crossfire
I'm seeing red
I've learned my lessons well
Crossfire into confrontations
Visions seeing red
I've been thinking this over my whole life
I've never listened to the words that they said.
I mean the odds don't mean a thing to me
And if there's heart it looks good from up here and
Are we gonna win this war? We'll never know unless we try
[Chorus]
It's not your fault
That you don't know us
You took our time
We took our chances
Hollow, the devil's eyes
Besiege and clever lies, he'll pull you under
Won't let you up for air
Try to reason, there's no fucking answer
Try to leave he's like a fucking cancer
No conscience, he doesn't get it, doesn't get it!
He's like a cancer, he won't let go
He'll hit the bottom, and then come back for more
No surrender, repeat offender
He's got the courage, he's got the courage
Don't come calling now, when your two stone throws away from your own grave
Your back's to the wall, you're at the bottom of the well
2 bridges down, only one to burn
I'm singin' now, 3 bridges down nothing left to burn
[Chorus]
I've seen it. You said it. This town is burning down
He's living underneath. That black cloud down town
If he comes around, it thunders and it pours
Renelly makes a dirty living from cheating, double cross and stealing
Heartless, no soul, he reeks of filth so I'm told
He's like a cancer, he won't let go
He'll hit the bottom, and then come back for more
No surrender, repeat offender
He's got the courage, he's got the courage
Don't come calling now, when your two stone throws away from your own grave
Your back's to the wall, you're at the bottom of the well
2 bridges down, only one to burn
I'm singin' now, 3 bridges down nothing left to burn
Do you know me? I was on TV in 1963 for armed robbery. Here's my story.
I didn't even keep the money. It's my time, my time was standing still
This deadbeat job's so stagnant. And I'm alive, still got my will
To commit crime, go down in time
And it's one last chance for glory and I've already done it in my mind
[Chorus]
We were desperate for change, to live our own way
If nothing has changed, I've got this story
I still work 9 to 5, still doing my time
If nothing has changed, I've got this story
It went down on a Tuesday, of that morning, that morning it all came down
Ski masks, sawed off shotguns
There were people, they were hitting the ground,
And no casualties, just adrenaline, it's the perfect crime in twenty
And I, I was out, before you clued in
[Chorus]
It's one last chance for glory, one last chance for me
Cause jersey just got colder and
I'll have you know I'm scared to death
That everything that you had said to me was just
A lie until you left
Now I'm hoping just a little bit stronger
Hold me up just a little bit longer
I'll be fine, i swear
I'm just gone beyond repair
Let's write a song that we can dance to
Cause they all wanna listen
Just to know how it sounds when
I do that thing you know that i do
When i find inspiration
This is me breaking down when
Jersey just got colder and
I'll have you know I'm scared to death
That everything that you had said to me was just
A lie until you left
Now I'm hoping just a little bit stronger
Hold me up just a little bit longer
I'll be fine, i swear
I'm just gone beyond repair
Let's write a song that we can sing to
And you can lead the choir
And put the hook where it hurts most
And you threw a spark that lit the candle
That set us all on fire
And sent a flame down the east coast
Jersey just got colder and
I'll have you know I'm scared to death
That everything that you had said to me was just
A lie until you left
Now I'm hoping just a little bit stronger
Hold me up just a little bit longer
I'll be fine, i swear
I'm just gone beyond repair
And i should have been your everything
I'm now at the end of my eternity
And i fall asleep to have the darkest dreams
This just won't seem right to me
I close my eyes and beg for peace
Jersey just got colder and...
Jersey just got colder and...
Jersey just got colder and...
Jersey just got colder and
I'll have you know I'm scared to death
That everything that you had said to me was just
A lie until you left
Now I'm hoping just a little bit stronger
Hold me up just a little bit longer
I'll be fine, i swear
You can see it in his eyes
In the way he walks and the way he talks
The kids try and break him his father violates him
But he won't wave that SOS white flag
The anger grips his fists
You can see it in his paved face look
Fall? NO WAY!
Violation Detonation
You said I was born to lose
But now I'm living to win
I've answered my beckoning call, and I'm casting the
Seven deadly sins, ON YOU!
On you, and the world that is against you
But he won't wave that SOS white flag
The anger grips his fists
You can see it in his paved face look
Fall? NO WAY!
Violation Detonation
Raise your fist and fight
Face your fears and rise
Fall? NO WAY!
