3 monkeys sittin' under a coconut tree
Discussing things as they are set to be
Said one to the others
Now listen you two
There's a strange rumor that can't be true
They say man was descended from our noble race
But the very idea is a big disgrace
No monkey ever deserted his wife
Or her baby to ruin their lives
YEAH, the monkey's drift is mine.
CHORUS
Educated fools they have ruined di world
And start make it hard for both di boys and di girls
Dem steal all the Africans diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna federal reserves
And then Rasta fuck it up and insight riot
Warn dem fi cool and we did warn dem fi quiet
Now dem hear the kick drum di snare and di hi hat
Load up dem belly with some copper shot diet
VERSE
Imagine after so much chantin and preyers
But a revolutionary situation requires
Mi fi come tear off unno face wid pliers
Surround dem ends with all some burning tires
Round up dem friends and put dem pon trials
Until dem send di reparation dollars
Warning to all di political scholars
Political thieves and political liars
Political cocaine and gun suppliers
Di whole a dem a go down inna flames and fires
Well unno better fly out like some frequent fliers
Bound to feel the wrath of di real Bongonyahs
Hey don't fuck yourself next time you read out di budget
Di government case, ah poor people a judge it
Dem bring di guns but di youths dem ah bust it
Bun dem skeletons weh lock up inna closet
Wipe out dem species and all dem inhabits
With a warm series of pain and havoc
Nah clean no feces fi money prefer grab it
Dem mek mi resort to violence di race get lead up
Somebody nah live up somebody goin dead up
BLOW!! Whole ah di garment dem red up
BLOW!! Car and apartment get bled up
Didnմ you get ample warning
say poor people fed up
And still every morning
Dem try hold dem head up
Emperor Selassie calling
Youths dem fi dred up
Babylon is fallen
Gun nozzle bend up
Releasing di whole of di youth dem weh pen up
CHORUS
Educated fools they have ruined di world
And start make it hard for both di boys and di girls
Dem steal all the Africans diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna federal reserves
And then Rasta fuck it up and insight riot
Warn dem fi cool and we did warn dem fi quiet
Now dem hear the kick drum di snare and di hi hat
Load up dem belly with some copper shot diet
VERSE (Bounty Killer)
CHORUS 2x
Educated fools they have ruined di world
And start make it hard for both di boys and di girls
Dem steal all the Africans diamonds and pearls
And start bank it up inna federal reserves
Educated Goons
Educated demons
Educated mules
Educated fools

Chorus
Stephen Marley:
And it was written
Up in the book of life
Cause the man shall
Endure forever more
(Repeat)
Verse 1
Damian:
Well did you know the pen
Is stronger than di knife
And they can kill you once
But they can’t kill you twice
Did you know destruction of di flesh is not di ending to life
Fear not of the anti-christ
Did you know that I
Exist before the earth
And did you know my eyes
Are windows to the world
Did you know you can’t go a Zion and a wear jerry curls
Can’t tell the boys from the girls
The body’s just a vehicle
Transporting the soul
It’s what’s inside the people
Is beauty to behold
Fear not of evil
Everyday dem flesh it grow old
Changes of the time take the toll
Chorus
Verse 2
Capleton:
The one ya name, fear is in the eyes of di beholder
And love is in the presence of the love maker
Life is in the words of the comforter
Endure much longer
Live much longer
Fear is in the eyes of di beholder
And love is in the presence of the love maker
Life is in the words of the comforter
Endure much longer
Live much longer
Verse 3
Jr. Gong:
A vester on his chest and Rastafari is his name
The gift of everlasting life for us to all sustain
Blessing that you all be got
Lessons taught you all forgot
Rasta call it shit you not
Do you remember Elijah
And his chariot of flames
Same blood that runs thru my veins
Verse 4
Capleton:
The one ya name, fear is in the eyes of di beholder
And love is in the presence of the love maker
Life is in the words of the comforter
Endure much longer
Live much longer
Fear is in the eyes of di beholder
And love is in the presence of the love maker
Life is in the words of the comforter
Endure much longer
Live much longer
Careful of you, entertain stranger
Selaisse never born inna nuh manger
I'll never crucify as me savior
Elect off himself inna the ruler
Babylon nah function well dem a failure
So be careful of dem cellular and pager
Cause I sign see dem I see danger
So dem grateful Selaisse I pray to you
Chorus
Verse 5
Drag-on:
??
Verse 6
Damian:
Watch for sticks and stones
Stumbling blocks in piles
Life is one big road
Miles on top of miles
So blessed be the soul
That always remains a child
And most people don't even smile
There's a natural mystic
Blowing in tru the air
So keep it realistic
And always be aware
The truth is crying out
And it's so loud and so clear
But most people won't even hear
Spiritual pollution is in the atmosphere
And with so much confusion
Can one be happy here
The gift of Rastafari is for all man to share
But some would rather to be so unfair
Chorus

VERSE (Stephen Marley)
Every time I hear the crack of a whip
My blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalized our very soul
Today they say that we are free
Only to be chained in poverty
Good god I think it's illiteracy
Only a machine that makes
CHORUS
Slave driver
your table has turned
Catch a fire
Your gonna get burned
Slave driver
your table has turned
Catch a fire
Your gonna get burned
VERSE
Now dem take up the ghetto youths
And gi dem pure magazine
And take up another set
And gi dem pure 16
And play dem dirty games
Of bloody plots and schemes
And watch dem like a show
Ah harbor view big screen
And con mi brother dem
And go buy dem cream
And turn dem inna police
And bring dem in pon dem team
Ah wah dis father
Him drive10 grand
worth ah government Lada
and fight against the ones who
have the same forefather
him next door neighbor
all weed we charge for
we children slaughter
ah we dem want murder
just read di observer
right now the city can't get no absurder
after 400 years and whole heap ah brown sugar
we ambush we brother
and go on like never
used to plan slavery revolt
inna di bush dem together
we change just like di weather
VERSE (Stephen Marley)
CHORUS
Sons of slaves chant down sons of di slave driver
Nah spear slave rider neither
And if dem could dem would tax you pon saliva
How much more must we die for
The ones in the car while we're standing at the terminus
The government bogus
They don't work for us
Instead dem chain and whip we with domestic fuss
And guns and aids and drugs
Cause most of di youths wid di schooling dem have
Can't get no money from legitimate jobs
Then you wonder why dem grab chain and bags
You influence the youths fi turn gays and fags
Or else dem canÕt afford not even torn up rags
But table ah turn as mi turn table spun
Di fire we ah catch up all a blaze and ah bun
Dats why any time you see Rasta you run
VERSE (Stephen Marley)
We nuh want no Babylon government
Weh ah burn down ganja man tent
And den ah come wid dem one bag ah tax argument
When we can't pay light bill and rent
Mi sight dem ah lead ghetto youths
Every which part dem went
And ah pure wrong corner dem bent
So next time, dem pass thru you and your crew
Don't give dem no encouragement
A YO!!
Just start run dem out
And start bun dem out
Ah your environment
A YO!!
We want know bout ah
Every red cent out ah
Poor people money dem spent
And then
We want know down who
Pay di bills when the prime minister car dent
And then
We want know when dem ah come reposes
All these guns and drugs they've sent
. . .

[Damian Marley]
Some gal in a twinkling of an eye
Dem a ready fi come pull down me Karl Kani
Oh, come on now
Tell me how can I
Love a one dat really don't deserve me
Na try fi keep and na try preserve me
Me's a boy could get whole heep a girl ya heard me
Many are called but only few dem worthy
Body have to physically strong and sturdy
Spiritually balanced fi clean and purge me
Mentally advanced fi always urge me
Read a couple books and challenge the clergy
Read a couple psalms up in the morning early
[Damian Marley]
Could you be so kind
Then show me a sign
I've been searchin' and it's so hard to find
Decent values with a decent wine
Decent jubee running it down the line
Maybe it's my mind
Maybe I'm blind
Maybe it's the way that I've been spending my time
I'm still searching for a fine peace of mind
Decent jubee running it down the line
[Yami Bolo]
A little child has grown
And he'g got love on his mind
But what he'll never know
A virtuous woman is hard to find
[Stephen Marley]
And dat's when she said
She feels the pain
And she'll never fall
In love again
[Damian Marley]
So if you is a gal with whole heep of value
What a valuable nice and decent gal you
When I get you I'll be glad I got you
Then stand firmly inna your life like statue
Seen some old tings seen some young tings
Seen some little silly go and come tings
Seen some one night just for fun tings
What an indecent piece of someting
[Ziggy & Damian]
Be so kind
The show me a sign
I've been searchin' and it's so hard to find
Decent values with a decent wine
Decent jubee running it down the line
Maybe it's my mind
Maybe I'm blind
Maybe it's the way that I've been spending my time
I'm still searchin' for a fine peace of mind
Decent jubee running it down the line
[Yami Bolo]
Some say that love is blind
But he keep saying "Not This Time"
So all we need is love
To keep his heart in line
[Stephen Marley]
But that's when she said
Lord I feel the pain
And she'll never fall
In love again
[Damian]
You have some gyal ah come pon man premises
And ah fling up dat ting that's between di knees
And ah fill up man head with false promises
Oh dutty bungle please
Couldn't want to run that so fast with ease
Been there done that my main squeeze
Is natural, simply natural
[Damian Marley]
Could you be so kind
Then show me a sign
I've been searchin' and it's so hard to find
Decent values with a decent wine
Decent jubee running it down the line
Maybe it's my mind
Maybe I'm blind
Maybe it's the way that I've been spending my time
I'm still searching for a fine peace of mind
Decent jubee running it down the line
[Yami Bolo]
A little child has grown
And he's got love on his mind
But what he'll never know
A virtuous woman is hard to find
[Stephen Marley]
Cause that's when she said
She's feeling pain
It seems they have fallen in love again
That's when she said
Lord I feel the pain
And now they're standing in love again
[Damian Marley]
So tell me ah when price tag gone pon ay nanny
Gyal ah love man for Benz and ferrari
Little one eyed brethren weh name Omari
Couldn't get no loving since him sell stary
Some gyal in a twinkling of an eye
Dem ah ready fi come pull down me Karl Kani
Oh, come on now

Love a one dat really don't deserve me

Of hole sale suppliers

And she drinks the most expensive wines

Well tha smuggling and trafficking
Of ilegal substances is her line of work
Me say a good woman ration
Most of di gyal dem
Get so caught up inna fashion
Love vanity
Dem seem dem love it with a passion
Start to used dem body
For some dirty profession
Seem like dem need

Righteous path

Instead of di
Materialistic religion

Crash course and collision

Trampling
Di camp dem camping in
And ah burn out the vampire
Vamping in

Impress dumping him
Youngest veteran
Will be pumping in
Thumping in
The club dem jumping in
So wah
Tell the people your bumpin in
Say wah
All mi colleagues dem chumping in
After sleepless nights of sampling
The results can be life gambling
Now don't stop by nor stumble in
The jungle
Where the royal a rumble in
Someone cookie jar will be crumbling
And we don't mek room fi no fumbling
Well, carefull how your entire in
Certain after dark adventuring
Cuase you might have to be surrendering
Mi sey all those jewels and Benjamin's
Weh di thugs dem weh ready
Fi di wrangling
When the real Gideon
Is untangling
And a drive inna prestige handling
And a practice punk dismantling
And a trod go a Binghi di thanks giving
Fi go hail up di elders skankin in
Fi guidance you thru the world
Weh di punks live in
Burn the church weh di popes
And munks live in
Well judgment fi dem tampering
When dem grudge

When dem can't find help nor hindering
Cause di man wid

Deh yah now fi go burn down

Wid enough fire power
Fi di winter cold
Weh nuh rise till the revolution unfold

Where di trees are green

And some warm milo tea
Rub massage home made
Coco butter skin cream
Interior design of

And the vibes are pure
And the thoughts are clean

Dividends weekly
So mi know ah no money
Mek she seek me
Cool me down
And tie mi knotty dem neatly

Introduce her to Cindy

Well I was sitting
By an open fire place
In my flavorite dungarees
I play a few strums
Upon my guitar
And It sounds so good to me
Big skunky blunt a blaze
And plus
My flavorite stooks beside me
I glance over
Just so I could see her
But my locks got in the way
Cool breeze a blow
Thru the weeping willow
She always leave
A fragrance on my pillow
When I'm ready
She will always follow
Me to the place of
My old sleepy hollow
Soft silky voice is
So sacred and hollow
Cause out spoken noisy
Streams run shallow
Reach to the stars
When I launch the Apollo
Could a land up ah Sao Paulo

One a move out
Like she don't want to live in
One a 21
Di other one a 19
Now one a mi woman
And one a mi queen
One face ah wrinkle
When mi laundry fi clean
One can not cook it
Of mi ital cuisine
She surely learned
About mi king size trampoline
One dominant
Di other one reign supreme
One very kind
Di other one kinda mean
One a rude gyal
Di other one squeaky clean
Di 3 of we together
That's my ideal dream
One gyal so tight
Man have to use vasoline
Next gyal so wide
She must a use gasoline
Ah dem a kinda a gyal weh
Bust your self-esteem
And mek you wanna build
Your own housing scheme
Nothing a change
To discipline mi a dean
Real buffalo
In Rastafari regime
Bush bungalo ah where mi
Dwell wid mi queen
Mek dem know say things
Are not always what they seem
Two jealous woman
Is a dangerous scene
More time ya mask
Di double clip magazine
Don't mek she find
All di old 16
Two ah dem a war
And start blood up di team
I Jr.Gong
The gyal dem tangerine
One looking like
She could ah be a ballerine
Next one delicate
She could ah be a figurine
None ah dem nuh start
Move sideways and lean

Where there's, more hungry mouths
Than food to eat
It's where the homeless
Roam the street
Where broken glass
And broken dreams
Are shattered and scattered
Amongst debris
Sufferation wrath
And still they laugh
And dream of a mansion
Above the half
No one to speak
Upon there behalf
Now tell me do they stand a chance?
Where there's, more food
Than mouths to feed
Where you find those who
Claim to lead
Because of all their personal greed
They always want more than they need
They don't help those
Below the half
Instead they stand aside and laugh
As if it's all we'll ever ask
When will they make a change?
CHORUS (Yami Bolo)
Children lift your heads
To the one
Who create the sun
My children
And your light will come shinning again
Show the world
Jah love is okay
When we rise and greet the sun
Lets give him thanks and praise
VERSE
Illegal guns
They roam the night
In hungry hands
Waiting to bite
The first sign of
Any food in sight
Youths in the dark
Searching for light
Hard time they face
Is not a choice
Police curfew
Is no surprise
And with no one
To be there voice
Do they stand a chance?
Where there's, more hungry mouths
Then food to eat
Where you find those who
Claim to lead
Because of all there personal greed
They always want more than they need
They don't help those
Below the Ave
Instead they stand aside and laugh
As if it's all we'll ever ask
When will they make a change?
VERSE
Its like a punk never check
Or dem did forget
Say a death
We nature naughty
Ah true mi go born uptown
Tell dem fools don't cross me
That's only where Cindy brought me
And that's why they can't impress me
With no boasty car
Me know dat ah kill dem softly
And then they're not
Really even who they think they are
They're not really moving crafty
Mi get fi understand
Say them plan dem faulty
Well nuff a dem a twenty
And favor forty
Filthy rich big belly
And hearty
Di real Gideon will
Be arriving shortly
Rasta nuh beat Binghi
Drum we claatt it
We live longer
Cause we food nuh salty
We grow stronger
And dem can't assault we
So haile Rastafari love
And exhalt it
