Mama Lool At Boo Boo (Melody)
I wonder why nobody don't like me
Or is it the fact that I'm ugly?
I wonder why nobody don't like me
Or is it the fact that I'm ugly?
I leave my whole house and home
My children don't want me no more
Bad talk inside de house dey bring
And when I talk they start to sing
Mama, look at bubu they shout
Their mother tell them shut up your mout
That is your daddy, oh, no
My daddy can't be ugly so
Shut your mout' Go away
Mama, look at bubu dey (ooh)
Shut your mout' Go away
Mama, look at bubu dey
I couldn't even digest me supper
Due to the children's behavior
John (Yes, pa) come here a moment
Bring de belt, you're much too impudent
John says it's James who started first
James tells the story in reverse
I drag me belt from of me waist
You should hear them screaming round the place
Mama, look at bubu they shout
Their mother tell them shut up your mout
That is your daddy, oh, no
My daddy can't be ugly so
Shut your mout' Go away
Mama, look at bubu dey (ooh)
Shut your mout' Go away
Mama, look at bubu dey
So I began to question the mother
These children ain't got no behaviour
So I began to question the mother
These children ain't got no behaviour
Dey playing with you my wife declared
You should be proud of dem my dear
Dem children were taught to bloom n' slack
That ain't no kind of joke to crack
Mama, look at bubu they shout
Their mother tell them shut up your mout
That is your daddy, oh, no
My daddy can't be ugly so
Shut your mout' Go away
Mama, look at bubu dey (ooh)
Shut your mout' Go away
Mama, look at bubu dey
I wonder why nobody don't like me
Or is it the fact that I'm ugly?
I wonder why nobody don't like me
Or is it the fact that I'm ugly?
I leave my whole house and home
My mishpocha don't want me no more
Bad talk inside de house dey bring
And when I talk they start to sing
Mama, look at bubu they shout
Their mother tell them shut up your mout
