Mi come wid Garlic

So me di group and mi troop gonna try to move your feet
to dis old swingin' beat!
mi got home afta de party
tuesdee nite 1.30
mi found di doctor like a dog inna heat and mi darlin' talkin' sweet:
"flip mi ova and bone mi doctor, push wood inna di fiya!"

Doctor! where's you manners? you no mo' mi fella
so mi ran to mi gun an' shoot dem dung inna di cella!!

roses are red and violets are blue

cya mi come first and you second
38 or 45 whatever di size
and bye bye bye!

a likkle afta comin' from afar
a rumble in di yard growin loud and loud
mi run a di door mi open di door
good gracious a yellow ting like a flyin' scooter
mi decide fi meself to hopon

you know di trumpeter!!

funny lyrics and music is all I bring inna mi tree piece suit and ting!
rememba me once inna di klubah made you sing and swing wid mi old darlin' ting!
all ah got fi dat: 3 long years inna custody
inna jail called "mercury"
me keepa was a portugee
him treated mi like a santapee
and him lied like a pharisee
but ah ain't got no fear
di allmighty guide I down there
I man smarter
Skalipsoul is di highway robba
I back on earth wid 15000 dollas!

gimme justice for di king is back

man beware it's me last attack

mi head's like a book dat is well compact

mi tongue like a gun dat never yet snap

run man run if ya see me come

monkey see monkey do go home!

don't care you face look innocent

you're like a monkey you're insolent!

delirious mule you're so arrogant!

oh laws me bawlin' fi punishment!

imitators now me know a lot!

don't ya know di only sureshot?

just in time put you in di fryin' pan

and ah let ya in man til di end of time!

you played wid di fiya when ya steal mi banner!

court in session Buster presidin'

man if ya goin a Zion high

go tell I and I you sinner man

cos' you know noting bout I singin' machine

I've passed through de mill Lors I know de pain

open your eyes look who's back again

ah should have known by dis look in your eyes

dat you was a devil in disguise

right on time mi back on de scene

right on time di lord crown I king!

just in time put you in di fryin' pan

and ah let ya in man til di end of time!

you played wid di fiya when ya steal mi banner!

no you ain't got no honour better run fi cover!!

So one more day, another night
One more year without you
God I'm so blue, honey I miss you
So one more day, another night
One more year without you
God I'm so blue, don't know how old are you...

I mus' say if I had de money
I could show you a better day
but tings dem not so easy today
ain't no fun inna di city
from bad to worse everyday
God I polish shoes, man I beg fi money
tings dem so hard pon me!


ten years I livin' on de streets
still don't know how to make ends meet
tell me what do you learn at school
do your new daddy tink I'm a fool?
I'm dyin' to hear from you
I still polish shoes and still beg fi money
tings dem so hard pon me!
