Ghettoman Corner

[Intro]
Tens of thousands, thousands of millions
All waiting for this combination in the grand stand, you know?
Well, I think about what enter the land so grand

[Chorus]
Mi say di wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
Say, wicked have fi run when di father come
Say, wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
Say, wicked have fi run when di father come
But if you run to di rock, you are go jook by attack
Crawl like a snail, you are go jook by a nail
Say, wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
Say, wicked have fi run when di father come

[Verse 1]
Mi went up at stadium fi have a little fun
And here come a badboy, a buss him big gun
Him mussi think mi now go run up and down (Mi nah run)
Think mi now go run up and down
Cah when di right time come, it are go dread pon some
Di right time come, it are go dread pon some
Say, dread pon those who did a fire dem gun
Dread on those who did a fire dem gun

[Chorus]
Say, wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
Say, wicked have fi run when di father come

[Verse 2]
Di wicked are go melt like butter 'gainst sun
Say, wicked are go melt like butter ’gainst sun
Brr, run to di rock and then you jook by attack
You crawl like a snail, you are go jook by a nail
Watch what you say, watch what you do
Cah every little thing you do, di father watching you
Mi went up at Barrocan fi buy a felt hat
Here come a badboy, a fire pure shot
A pity him no know say mi puppa is a cop
Di next thing you know, him land down at Dovecot

[Chorus]
Say, watch what you say, hey, watch what you do
Cah every little thing you do, di father watching you
Watch what you say, watch what you do
Cah every little thing you do, di father watching you

[Verse 3]
Mi lay down at mi bed with mi radio at mi head
Lay down at mi bed with mi radio at mi head
Hear a newsflash say di father dead
Hear a newsflash say di father dead
But who say Jah Jah dead, a rumor dem a spread
Who say Jah Jah dead, a rumor dem a spread

[Chorus]
Say, wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
Say, wicked are go run when di father come
Brr, run to di rock and then you jook by attack
Crawl like a snail, you are go jook by a nail
You go down at sea fi go hide your face
Sea goin' say that there is no hiding place
Say, watch what you say, hey, watch what you do
Cah every little thing you do, the father watching you

[Verse 4]
But you got to be true
And I beg you, don't you be the baddy boo
Say, what a weeping and a wailing and a gnashing of teeth
A weeping and a wailing and di gnashing of teeth
When di wicked and di righteous meet
Say, when di wicked and di righteous meet

[Outro]
Say, wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
Say, wicked are go run when di father come
But-a whether you are young or mi say whether you are old
Say, what about di half that have never been told?
Say, wicked have fi run, say wicked have fi run
But-a wicked are go run when di father come
