Dem
want I, dem want I fi come a dem funeral
Dem claim say dem claim say dem a de general
Dem want I, dem want I fi come a dem funeral
Dem claim say dem claim say dem a de general
what a big digrace
whey you rob up the place
rob everything you can find
and you even rob the blind
you must you want I fi come a come a funeral
and I no go a no one burial
yet you waan I fi come a come a funeral
mek you friend come claim seh you a di general
now we know the truth
find you wearing the boot???
of taking peoples business on your head
so might as well you be dead
Dem want I, dem want I fi come a dem funeral
Dem claim say dem claim say dem a de general
Dem want I, dem want I fi come a dem funeral
Dem claim say dem claim say dem a de general |

Let the dead
bury their dead
and who is to be fed, be fed
I ain't got no time to waste on you
I'm a livin man and I got work to do |
Luke
9:59-62
And he said unto another, Follow me.
But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury
my father.
Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead:
but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee;
but let me first go bid them farewell, which are
at home at my house.
And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his
hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for
the kingdom of God. |
this man and
that man
they are the same man
you thouht of this just as well
that the rich man's heaven i the poor mans hell
you must you want I fi come a come a funeral
natty no go a no one funeral
you must want I fi come a come a funeral
and I no go a no one burial
yet you waan I fi come a coma a funeral
mek you friend come claim seh you a di general |
