But if mi cyaa pay light bill fi da month yah
How da phone deh a go

[Chorus]
Think bout that
Nuttin nah gwaan
A bay gun tun up

She seh things just mud up
Oh my Lord, wah mek the poor man suffer?
Oh my Lord, wah mek the poor man suffer?

[Verse 3]
Society a tell lie

Wahapen to di poor guy
Weh Babylon style and a seh dead tonight
Dawg mi nuh know why
Cause if a Missa Chin son every door fly
Higgler a get a fight
Stop tek weh the goods dem red eye
Everybody waan tings
Babylon alone waan roll wid di brinks
Yow a weh yuh think
Politician nuh buy mi nuh beer
Teach mi how fi mek drinks
Yow a which likkle fool mek a mill yesterday
And a spend off the whole one mill a Firelinks?
Ghetto yute haffi wise like Solomon
Suh you haffi deal wid tings

[Chorus]
