Madness Lyrics by Owen Gray

Miss Wire Waist

1984

[Verse 1]
Woah-oh, too much madness upon the land, can't cure
Yes, I've got to wonder is it because from too much drinking
I don't know, I want to know
Yes, it dread ina earth
Woah-oh, too much madness upon the land, can't jive
I've got to wonder, is it because the time so hard
I don't know, I want to know

[Chorus]
Most of this madness 'cause from the wickedness
Of the own people
Because they don't want to see their brothers and sisters
Reach the road of success

[Verse 2]
But I'm a hoping the father will change this situation
'Cause it's bad, man, it's dreadful
Yes, man, it dread ina earth
Anywhere you go, it dread, man

[Chorus]
Most of this madness 'cause from the wickedness
Of the own people
Because they don't want to see their brothers and sisters
Reach the road of success

[Verse 3]
But I'm a hoping the father will change this situation
'Cause it's bad, man, it's dreadful
Yes, man, it dread in our earth
Anywhere you go, it dread I

[Chorus]
Most of this madness 'cause from the wickedness
Of the own people
Because they don't want to see their brothers and sisters
Reach the road of success

[Outro]
But I'm a hoping the father will change this situation
'Cause it's bad, man, it's dreadful
Anywhere you go, it dread, man
Yes, it dread pon the land, man
Yes, said it dread ina the earth, man
Yes, all over it dread, man
Woah-oh, it dread ina the world, man
Yes, it dread ina London
Yes, it dread ina New York
Yes, it dread ina Japan
Yes, it dread ina Russia, man
And me say, yes, it dread ina Jamaica
