| Man to man is so unjust, children:
|
| Ya don’t know who to trust
|
| Your worst enemy could be your best friend
|
| And your best friend your worse enemy
|
| Some will eat and drink with you
|
| Then behind them su-su 'pon you
|
| Only your friend know your secrets
|
| So only he could reveal it
|
| And who the cap fit, let them wear it!
|
| Who the cap fit, let them wear it!
|
| Said I throw me corn, me no call no fowl;
|
| I saying, «Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk.»
|
| Some will hate you, pretend they love you now
|
| Then behind they try to eliminate you
|
| But who Jah bless, no one curse;
|
| Thank God, we’re past the worse
|
| Hypocrites and parasites
|
| Will come up and take a bite
|
| And if your night should turn to day
|
| A lot of people would run away
|
| And who the stock fit let them wear it!
|
| Who the (cap fit) let them (wear it)!
|
| And then a-gonna throw me corn
|
| And then a-gonna call no fowl
|
| And then a-gonna «Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk.»
|
| Some will eat and drink with you
|
| Then behind them su-su 'pon you, yeah!
|
| And if night should turn to day, now
|
| A lot of people would run away, yeah!
|
| And who the cap fit, let them wear it!
|
| Who the cap fit, let them wear it!
|
| Throw me corn, me no call no fowl;
|
| A-saying: «Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk.»
|
| …: «Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk.»
|
| Throw me corn (cook-cook-cook);
|
| Me call no fowl (cluk-cluk-cluk) |
