David Hinds. . What's wrong. Wrong with you, my sweet. You used to smile. But kind of lately. You now giving me that cold shoulder. I get the message that.
CHORUS. ------. . Leggo beast lips of flattery eyes of lust. Leggo beast she says carnal love is a must. Leggo beast feet abide not a home. Leggo beast loves to play while her husband gone.
Walking along just kicking stones. Minding my own business. I come face to face, with my foe. Disguised in violence from head to toe. . I holla and I bawl.
We know the system is one big jive. Weve got to fight to stay alive. Brother man is hooked on drugs, sisters hooked on selling love. The good God knows how they survive.
Wo oh now. Unite all the islands unite. And fight the wicked dem out a sight. . First world your bomb is sticking. Dirty deeds and politricking. A whore's A whore, A witch is a witch.
Hijacking, no skylarking. Hijacking, no skylarking. . A journey 'cross the ocean far and wide. All jet setters want to see the other side. Only Jah know there's a hijacker on board.
CHORUS. Spa dap spap spa dap spa let me (scat). Spa dap spap spa dap spa. Spa dap spap spa dap spa. Let me tell You something. . As I was passing. I heard children laughing.
Everybody grab a girlfriend. And make the dancehall rock tonight. A reggae muffin. A ragga riddim. And make her scream with sheer delight. O my heart is jumping.
We wanna free the land. We wanna free the land. We wanna free the land. . Detainee in detention. Under interrogation. They've paid that price. With their lives.
I can't believe what I see. Mankind, so incomplete, yeah. . Violence on your box at home. Shouts and screams. From your neighbors next door. Vandals prowl the dim lit streets.
I can feel the passion. Of your love love love. Your warm and tender body. I just can't get enough. . What a joy to know hearts. Can groove along together.
A slack we slack, it's keeping us back. A slack we slack, no time fe dat, oh wee. Destruction of the black civilization. Let me tell you this. . Cause every time I raise my weary hand.
David Hinds. Yeah. Hear my story. Rage and fury. . I've been used and abused. God knows I've paid my dues. No time to lose I've got the blues. So please don't you light my fuse.
The Earth is the Lord's. And the fullness thereof now. Gave man his love and they. Reward him with violence. And in these last days. Lend ears to what I say.
They say love is blind. But right before my eyes. When I look you on a date last night. And to my surprise. You were staring in the eyes. The eyes of another man.

My energy's high now. The vibe is just right. I've got this disco appetite. The feeling is groovy. The feeling is right. I'm getting ready just to rock all night.
CHORUS. Dead end circuit dead end circuit. Dead end circuit. Come out of the dead end circuit. . I man find it hard to survive. In dis ya concrete jungle.
Rejoice rejoice. Good tidings I bring you. Hear ye a message to you my friend. Voices cry invoke your angels. When pressure drop it cannot conquer dread no.
David Hinds. Forward ever. Backward never. Stick together. And last forever. . The race is not for the swift but. For those who endure. We've been tried and tested.
