Joke the Ting

Yuh joke the ting, yuh joke the ting, eh
Memba when dancehall haffi sweet e
Yuh joke the ting, yuh joke the ting, eh
Bare bangarang ina di street
Yuh joke the ting, yuh joke the ting, eh
Memba when dancehall haffi sweet e
Yuh joke the ting, yuh joke the ting, eh
Bare bangarang ina di street

Now a dem a gangsta
Dem a gangsta
With money nuffi niff
Dem a gangsta
Dem a gangsta
But the belly cyant full up
Tell the selecta
Change the tune
We no want fuss and fight ina di room
Police bust a shoot like Daniel Boone
Some haffi bounce
Like a balloon
Now yuh haffi play garnet silk
So the people don't feel ill
We are not like Buffalo Bill
We haffi mek propecy fullfil
Look like a japanese built a spliff
I eat dumplings ina di street
With the bretrens, smoke weed
Royal and loyal, we haffi keep
Porque la cosa no da para más
Decile a Selecta que la tire para atrás
Kalongi and Fidel, acabamos de llegar
Para las ghetto girl que no paren de bailar
