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 |
