Two Sevens Clash

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clashMy good old prophet Marcus Garvey prophesize, say

"St. Jago de la Vega and Kingston is gonna read"

And I can see with mine own eyes

It's only a housing scheme that divideWat a liiv an bambaie, it dread

When the two sevens clash

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clashLook up a cotton tree out by Ferry police station

How beautiful it used to be

And it has been destroyed by lightning,

Earthquake and thunder, I say, what?Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash - it dread

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clashI take a ride sometimes

On Penn Overland and Bronx

And sometimes I ride on bus X-82, say what?Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clashMarcus Garvey was inside of Spanish Town district Prison

And when they were about to take him out

He prophesied and said

"As I have passed through this gate""No other prisoner shall enter and get through"

And so it is until now

The gate has been locked, so what?Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash, it dread

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash, it bitter, bitter, bitterWat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash, a man a go feel it

Wat a liiv an bambaie

When the two sevens clash, you better do right
