Follow Fashion Monkey |
| Get up you Black Yankee |
| Don’t be no Follow Fashion Monkey |
| Get up you Black Yankee |
| Don’t be no Follow Fashion Monkey |
| Follow follow follow fashion monkeys |
| Never drink good soup |
| So drink the water from your own stream |
| Before you loose your roots your roots, your roots |
| Shala-wala walab-shah-shab |
| Dont like the way you hold back from me |
| Just give me the vibes I need cause I’m ready |
| Dont like the way you hold back from me |
| Just give me the vibes I need cause I’m ready |
| Be your self and no one else |
| Its time you stop your adaptions |
| Then you’ll know the truth is in |
| You and learn to make your own decision |
| Get up you Black Yankee |
| Don’t be no Follow Fashion Monkey |
| Get up you Black Yankee |
| Don’t be no Follow Fashion Monkey |
| I’ve seen you play the games of |
| Lead and I’ll follow, so many times before |
| Now I’d just like your attention |
| To borrow to get my message |
| Through your doors, your doors, your doors |
| Shab-sha shala-wala walab shab |
| There’s too much barriers |
| Between you and I |
| Tho' we’re both of the same kind |
| It’s the same current that runs through our minds |
| So trap your egos' to mine |
| Stop a while and keep your cool and |
| Listen to what I’m saying |
| Though I know temptation strong |
| You’ll reap the treasure of knowing |
| Then you’ll start growing, growing, growing |
| Dread up thats your culture |
| Live up thats life, dont let devil use you |
| For all them shining precious stones |
| They’re gonna rub right off |
| So dont let them fool you |
| Please dont let them fool you, fool you fool you |
| Get up you Black Yankee |
| Don’t be no Follow Fashion Monkey |
| Get up you Black Yankee |
| Don’t be no Follow Fashion Monkey |
