Tan And See

A long time I man did a-warn yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), long, long time ago
The more you look is the less you see, oh yeah
The less you look is the more you see
(A do you hear me when I say?)
The more you look is the less you see, oh yeah
The less you look is the more you see, oh yeah
I steal it, keep it, a-why stop?
So nobody beat up you got
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
(Do you hear me when I say?)
Oh yea, oh yea
Lalala
Alright
Don’t say you have never been told, oh yea
'Cause it was written by great man of old
(Do you hear me what I say?)
The half has never yet been told, oh yea
Jah Jah is in full control
Listen!
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
A long time I man did a-warn yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), oh yeah
A long time I man did a-war yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), oh yeah
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
The more you look is the less you see, oh yeah
The less you look is the more you see
(A do you hear me when I say?)
The more you look is the less you see, oh yeah
The less you look is the more you see, oh yeah
A long time I man did a-warn yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), long, long time ago
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Tan and see no spoil no dance
