Que Dem

0

[Intro]
Now, blackman
I and I say, mount ZIon our descendant
'Cause I and I come from one African land
An' one day you have fi casted by Jah down

[Verse 1]
Mi say, dem keepin' a dance, dem a wash it down
Dem send fi Josey Wales an' king Yellowman
Dem send fi U-Roy an' pupa Toyan
Dem no send fi Peter Metro nor Burro Banton
Cah, Burro nose big like twelve rubbish ban
Dem no want so much deejay, dem only want one
So dem fi pupa Chaplin fi come ram up session
Mi send fi di Queen from out of Buckingham
Mi send fi Margaret Thatcher, mi say from London
Mi send fi di president weh name Rеagan
Mi send fi di leader of di Soviеt Union
An' dem hug up an' kiss an' shake one another hand
An' talk dispose 'bout nuclear weapon
An' cut down di tax pon ammunition
An' come out of di conflict with di Caribbean
An' talk [?] feelings with di Cuban
An' make dem know di world now belong to one man
Cah, mi is a man, no love botheration
Mi tired fi come see people in a frustration
A long time mi jam an' a run Saint Ann
Mi send di one Josey fi go a number one
But it seems like Josey will-a take too long
Mi are go cramp him with mi lyrics an' phone di Yellowman
I walk pon Burro nose, go straight to number one
An' do couple tune an' turn champion
An' buy seven car an' one dozen van
Cah, up in a di hills weh di stream so cool
Said-a, mullet an' a janga swim in di pool
Say, five sheep, goat an' a six black ram
Some makers of banana, some makers of yam
Dem cyaan stop you again for you have ambition
Dem have fi friend you up an' shake off your hand
Say, from you a walk from town to Westmoreland
You must drive a car or you must drive a van

[Bridge]
Pupa Chaplin, Lord-our-God, you come fi control di land (Hey)
Cah, pupa Chaplin, I tell you say, you come here fi control di land
Cah tell you, you are go wipe out violence an' nuclear weapon
You are go make minister an' president shake hand
A so mi know you too are champion
You come pon yard fi no destruction
You come fi show di light to blackman
In a di land (Lord have mercy)
I tell you, in a di land (Cah, weh mi say?)

[Verse 2]
Now with di order of di scripture from di Governor General
Say, anywhere mi go, man, mi control gal
A so mi know dis ya deejay no partial
Mi win Grammy award an' mi win gold medal
No bother come try fi trick blackman
Pon di land (Lord have mercy)
Mi say, no bother come try fi trick blackman
Pon di land (Cah, weh mi say?)
Mi say, mi praise Rastafari, mi no praise Satan
Mi don't got no time fi no contention
Mi nah walk an' shake wicked man hand
Mi greatest plan, mi say fi go to Zion
So tell me, mi say fi tell me
Tell me if me wrong (Lord have mercy)
Mi say fi tell me, people tell me
Tell me if me wrong (Fi what?)
Fi want crash down violent an' wipe out weapon
An' [?] from down at Lebanon
Mi say tell me, people tell me
Tell me if me wrong (Cah, weh mi say?)
But mi say, dis is a question fi ask every man
Dis is a question fi ask every man
You know, say, your mouth can make you get rich
You know, say, your mouth can talk slow an' cool--
