Do Something for Yourself |
| Hey chuh! |
| Stop the begging, man! |
| Yuh mek it look bad upon the whole a we |
| You ever see dog pon the street? |
| And talk about fatha fatha |
| Then all dog a your father too |
| Get up and do something for yourself |
| Rise up and do something for yourself |
| Rise up and do something good for yourself |
| Instead of your begging! |
| Do something progressive for yourself |
| One thing I can t understand |
| How did the guinea chicken so broad? |
| Get up and do something for yourselves |
| Look at the children, they are in school |
| Trying to work hard and further education |
| Look at granny down a Coronation Market |
| I can t believe that young strong man |
| Stand up on street and stretch out them hand |
| Get up and do something for yourselves (You can’t beat a bush) |
| Can t you be a mechanic? |
| Can t you teach yourself to paint a house? |
| Can t you make a Dutch pot? |
| Yahba pot! |
| Can t you make a pair of shoes? |
| Can t you do something with the tailor? |
| I can t understand |
| Everyday you have fi nyam |
| And you nuh want to work at all (Jah know) |
| A lazy man eat more than a working man (Him belly bigger) |
| For him more time to eat the food |
| While I have to be in the field |
| See if I can make tomorrow s meal |
| The building haffe reach the sky |
| Them seem to a next skyscraper now |
| Get up and do something for yourselves |
| Rise up and work! |
| Rise up and do something for yourselves |
| Roast two dumpling, it’s for yourselves |
| This is what I can t understand: |
| Women having children for lazy man |
| I wonder how the pickney them ago nyam |
| Those children need some education |
| They ve got no mental disability |
| Lawyers, doctors, teachers of tomorrow |
| There won t be no sorrow |
| That s all the hope that we have got (So you know what, brother? Mind them) |
| Get up and do something for yourselves |
| Sell two callaloo, star |
| Get up and do something for yourselves |
| Even two ripe banana |
| Granny she can wait so long |
| Yet you want to be a jiffy man |
| Get up and do something for yourselves |
| Meet me with a nana nap |
| Get up and do something for yourselves |
| You just a pray for John Brown fi dead |
| Why didn’t you pray a good prayer for survival? |
| Everything you see a street yuh want |
| Everything a street, yuh say you need |
