Good morning
Let's talk until the night
Now ladies and gentleman
Listen to the great voice of the great Marcia Griffiths
You're moving too hot
Cool down, cool down
(Simmer down) You lickin' too hot, so
(Simmer down) You'll get dropped, so
(Simmer down) Can you hear what I say
(Simmer down) Why won't you, why won't you simmer down
I remember time and time again
You never need a listen, never want comprehend
Sending out the wrong vibes, wrong message you ah send
Now you gonna end up on the receiving end
Find yourself from the crossroad and now you ah confused
Betta find some betta ways you need to improve
Calm down your temper, down di over proof
Let go from the bitterness and change your attitude
Long time people dem used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly, so
(Simmer down) Control your temper
(Simmer down) Know the battle will be hotter
(Simmer down) And you won't get no supper
(Simmer down) Simmer, simmer, simmer right down
(Simmer down) Oh, oh, ohh
Ya, yuh hear mi now, let me tell yuh something now
Can't tell me, tell you simmer, simmer down and cut it sweet
Calm down just for a moment, take a breath you affi breathe
Society get the best of, you mixed up with creed
Fighting for what you want and what you need
Long time in the barrel a make the most sound
So many try to follow and end up on the ground
You moving in circles like a merry-go-round
Now you are reaching for a straw when you find out that you drown
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it
Move it, move it, move it, move it, move it
(Simmer down) Simmer, simmer, simmer right down
(Simmer down) Control your temper
(Simmer down) Know the battle will be hotter
Simmer down, ha
(Simmer down) Simmer, simmer, simmer right down
