Caribbean Time |
Caribbean time in motion |
Fireflyin' across the ocean |
And I can see the future |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
In the modern potboiler |
Anesthetize your mind |
And if you won’t be a lawyer |
You’re gonna need an alibi |
And if you crave bein' an outlaw |
Better to make a plan |
For the guns and the promises they feed you |
Will drag you in the sand |
Nobody come clever enough |
Before they get there, move their mainland rough |
I’m takin' no direction and I walk-a real slow |
For the words of oppression are go, go, go |
Caribbean time in motion |
Fireflyin' across the ocean |
And I can see the future |
Barbados to Barcelona |
Caribbean time hereunder |
I can see the future |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
If you want a dictator |
You best get organized |
And if you wan' be a hater |
You make trains run on time |
And if you crave a good pupil |
Bring glory to the schools |
And mind your Qs and Ps 'cause an island breeze |
Is breakin' all the rules |
Caribbean time in motion |
Fireflyin' across the ocean |
And I can see the future |
Antigua to Macedonia |
Darwinian time is over |
I can see the future |
It’s no military time |
It’s an island time |
Nobody come clever enough |
Before they get there, move their mainland rough |
I’m takin' no direction and I walk-a real slow |
For the words of oppression are go, go, go |
Caribbean time in motion |
Fireflyin' across the ocean |
And I can see the future |
Barbados to Barcelona |
Caribbean time hereunder |
I can see the future |
Caribbean, Caribbean |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
Caribbean, Caribbean, Caribbean |
It’s no military time |
It’s an island time |
