Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
I rise each day
To yet another shock
From dis alarm clock culture
And I miss de sound
Of mi big red cock
As him beat him chest
And crow welcome song
To de sun
From de fowl shit covered
Guava tree pon de hillside
ย
And de snooze button allow me five minute more
To dream bout ackee and breadfruit
And I get up and eat a bagel
And worry bout mi love handle
ย
Six layers a clothes
And termal drawers
And I still cold
ย
Another bridge mean more toll
And de golden rule is
Alternate-side parking
ย
And as de belly get fat
Many tings bout Yard dat
Used to be just a mere inconvenience
Start to look like major incompetence
Unscheduled power cut
Daily
Water lock off
Bank pon short staff cause
The morning was a little bit rainy
ย
Few telephones
Dat's just how it is
Yet everyone know
Everyone else business
Well I live in mi building for five years now
And mi neighbours dem still don't know me
But solace come from anonymity
And every time I bite de apple
De apple swallow me
ย
So dem force me to buy
A piece of the FBI
CIA investment pie
And dem give me a W2
Form in lieu
Of a receipt
ย
So now I'm funding a plot
To get God shot
Or something like dat
ย
De Korean polish him apples dem clean
And arrange dem in stacks of red, gold and green
Say him want Rasta to feel welcome
Seen?
ย
Still I yearn for de breeze
From de Natty Bay sea
As it cool down de sweat pon me back
I long to feed dry coc'nut to mi cock
ย
So I dilly
And I dally
And I wonder
How much longer
I can philander
ย
Cause each time I bite de apple
It swallow a piece of me
Still it hard to love de fruit
If I never did climb de tree
