Okay now, get ready here's your part
Now listen to me
It was a reggae accident
I said a reggae accident
I can't hear you
A reggae accident
A reggae accident
A reggae accident
Now make room for the band
A reggae accident
Here they come, here they come
A reggae accident
I say make room for them
A reggae accident
Ha ha, look out now
ย
It was a reggae accident
A reggae accident
ย
This is not a political statement
Nor is it a farce
In the land of the great bald bird
The rasta man is sparse
ย
He does not like our urban jungle
Or our capitalistic nightmare
He does not believe in auto insurance
Mon, I don't believe that is fair
ย
(It was a reggae accident) Four rastas in a rambler
(A reggae accident) They came from out of nowhere
(A reggae accident) They were smoking spliff cigars
(A reggae accident) They totaled out my car
ย
ย
I lost the case that sealed my fate
Last week in municipal court
The judge ruled for rasta restitution
Of a most peculiar sort
ย
Now there's four stoned faces at my dinner table
And my wife wonders how come
She does not mind the extra mouths to feed
As much as she minds those after dinner drums, we simg
(It was a reggae accident) Four rastas eating pasta
(A reggae accident) Pass the parmesan please
(A reggae accident) How does a rasta spell relief
(A reggae accident) No problem mon, pass the spliff
ย
Oh, reggae down
ย
Now the sun shines on the isle of Jamaica
As it's done since time began
No problem, says the rasta mon
When I asked to join his band
ย
You see I sold my house, I quit my job
I left that narrow-minded wife
And I moved to the island of Jamaica, ya
Just to live that, rasta life
ย
(It was a reggae accident) Four rastas in a rambler
(A reggae accident) They came from out of nowhere
(A reggae accident) They were smoking spliff cigars
(A reggae accident) Now I've become a rasta star
(It was a reggae accident) Look out world
(A reggae accident) You know the harder they come
(A reggae accident) The harder they fall one and all
(A reggae accident) It was just an accident one day
It was a reggae accident
A reggae accident
A reggae accident
A reggae accident
ย
Come back, come back to Jamaica
Come back to the way things, used to be
Ya, ya
Let's play some dominoes now, mon, come on
ย
