Dem done bow already and dem can't say dem sorry ya
Slew dem a pure feelings dem a carry
Unno wan do dem something for me again well yo yo it name
Who dem ah couldah, wha dat dem a try
Dem go dis King Selassie watch all a dem die yo
Who dem me go see dem wit dem spell

Who dem a coulda, who dem waan cuss, dem dis Marcus
And now dem all bite de dust ya

Dem evil heart and dem corrupted thought nyam too much
(Edit)
Snake under grass, bow to de boss
Move too fast, me tell dem bout dem
(Edit)
Who go tell dem to provoke de youths dem to wrath
Now de youth dem seh dem nah trust no shadow after dark
Nah tek no check nor no fool fool talk
Dem know who and who ah come straight from dem heart
Know who a hypocrite from de way how dem talk
Dis de emperor and watch de whole a dem loss
Can't even find food to put inna dem troft
Not even bicycle much less donkey cart
Can't even creep, much less fi walk
Dem can't even smile nor laugh da one yah name
Who dem ah couldah, wha dat dem a try
Dis King Selassie watch all a dem die yo
Who dem me go see dem wit dem spell
Dis Emmanuel and dem soul gone a hell yo
Who dem a coulda, who dem waan cuss, dem dis Marcus
And now dem all bite de dust ya
Who dem ah dem ah want ah treasure
Tell dem dem caan dis mama 'mega
Sense did a gi weh like dem never get a pence
Seems like dem gone school and go warm bench
Dem nah have no faith no confidence
Nah hold no faith nah block no reverence
Find out say nuff a dem disobedient
So me find out dem no have no conscience
Dem no have a clean heart nor a clear conscience
Dis king Selassie I it never mek sense
Dis Emmanuel and dem get kick of a de bench
Dis Marcus Garvey ah weh the case dem get drenched
Who dem, who dem yo
Who dem ah couldah wha dat dem a try
Dis King Selassie watch all a dem die yo
Slew dem, who dem

So me seh again
Slew dem ah pure feeling dem a carry
