Who dem me go see dem wit dem spell
Dem dis Emmanuel and dem soul gone a hell
Who dem a coulda, who dem waan cuss, dem dis Marcus
And now dem all bite de dust ya
Who dem and me go tell dem fi splurt
Tell dem dem can't dis mama earth
[Verse 3]
Yo no see ah dead man dem, a duppy man dem

[Verse 5]
So me burn out dem dutty heart ,Dem evil heart
And dem corrupted thought
Wan too much ask
Snake under grass, bow to de boss
Move too fast, me tell dem bout dem ras
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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 denture
Not even bicycle much less donkey cart
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]

Tell dem dem caan dis mama 'mega

Seems like dem gone school and go warm bench
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
Dem no have a clean heart nor a clear conscience
Dis king Selassie I it never make sense
Diss Emmanuel and dem get kick off 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
[Chorus]
