Schoolboy Lyrics by Eek-A-Mouse

The Mouse & The Man

1983

[Intro]
*Scatting*

[Verse 1]
When mi was a boy, mumma only let mi wear a bogga
Mi don't get lunch money, sometime a pure burn sugar
Burn sugar, burn sugar, I man still remember
Mumma, she send mi to school, I get educated
I get educated, so sophisticated
Not underrated, but really elevated

[Chorus]
*Scatting*

[Verse 2]
Some of them a say there goes another dirty nigga
Another dirty nigga, another dirty nigga
Some of them a say, that boy there, him just charge fi murder
But a rumor, but a rumor, but a lie-sah, but a lie-sah
Some of them a swear for a airplane drop down
It keep, keep flying, keep flying, keep flying, keep flying
Stewardess, them a fit in, stewardess, them a fit in

[Chorus]
*Scatting*

[Verse 3]
Some of them no like Eek 'cause mi go a California (California)
Some of them a say there goes another dirty nigga
Weh just charge fi murder, an' them a spread pure rumor
Some of them a take their money an' a buy pure obeah
Pure obeah, pure obeah, Jah Jah Jah know, pure obeah
Pure obeah, pure obeah, Jah Jah Jah know, pure obeah
Pure obeah, pure obeah, Jah Jah Jah know, pure obeah

[Outro]
When mi was a boy, mumma only give mi burn sugar
All day long go a school only in a bogga
Only in a bogga, only in a bogga, only in a bogga
*Scatting*
