Babylon Homework Lyrics

Me just wanna say hail to Haile Selassie
His own divine majesty
Emperor Haile Selassie I the first
Babylon you see, when those youths come about
You know, it's just redder fire
Yeh man, we send enough stories to Babylon
Prime Minister give us repatriation
Remember this
Nothing inna Babylon nah work
Watch the inequity have to get up and spurt
Not even a wicked man can serve
Rome catch a fire 'cause deh Vatican thirst
Nothing inna Babylon can work
Things get lock off and them a dead fi pure thirst
Not even a wicked man can serve
Yow, desolation to the earth
Well, nuh bother tell me 'bout mi nuh fi vanky
Babylon gu hush up your mouth, you're too cranky

John Pope mi no know, no uncle nor aunty
Everything fi Babylon, Sizzla deh vanky
Well, from you rude mamma sey, she deh go spanky
Brain them a use 'bout a Christ ride the donkey
Who them a fool 'bout sey, black man a monkey
Black man, black woman, a the first monarchy
Babylon dry, them a beg Rasta dampy
Weed and a cry words of I them never want it
African soil fertile ligh high sensi
Yow well, Babylon, them listen calamity, yuh city
Nothing inna Babylon nah work
Watch the inequity have to get up and spurt
Not even a wicked man can serve
Rome catch a fire 'cause deh Vatican thirst
Nothing inna Babylon can work
Things get lock off and them a dead fi pure thirst
Not even a wicked man can serve
Yow, desolation to the earth
So mi go hail Emperor Selassie I, him a the first
This a one a Babylon home work
Protect the ghetto child, nuh badder move too fancy
From them a cry then how wi fi like, eh
You think a now Babylon them a spite we
Hand me the matches, make Sizzla go light , eh
Black people so much them nuh got no capacity
Try get up, go tell PJ a prophecy

Babylon presumptuous, what an audacity

Remember that a King Solomon grow we
Nothing inna Babylon nah work
Watch the inequity have to get up and spurt

Things get lock off and them a dead fi pure thirst
Not even a wicked man can serve
Yow, desolation to the earth
