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 |
