I don't like the work but true i need the money My life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny People all around, telling me what to do And all I want to do is stay at home with you Time after time I say to myself Working all my life isn't good for my health Get old, get tired, get put on the shelf I do all the work, someone else gets all the wealth Wish I was on an island in the sun Where I wouldn't have to worry how to get things done Chorus I don't like the work but true i need the money My life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny People all around, telling me what to do And all I want to do is stay at home with you Day after day becomes more of a grind Bills pile up, moneys harder to find Trying to get ahead money's harder to find If I don't give it up I'm gonna lose my mind Wish I was on an Island in the sun Where I wouldn't have to worry how to get things done Chorus I don't like the work but true i need the money My life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny People all around, telling me what to do And all I want to do is stay at home with you |

Me turn on fe me radio some a chat 'bout dat But I know more than D.J. so I nah play you dat. Chorus Me tek a 'D' and a 'U' an' a 'B' - not 'E' That thing there is special to me. Me listen in the morning, also in the night For dat form of music is out-a-sight. The newest form of music is easy to see It start with a 'D' and end with a 'B' Dub in a de morning and dub in a de night Mek the whole neighbourhood feel alright, feel alright When me reach me yard me got one thing on me mind, To hold me little woman and fe mek her feel irie. When me reach me yard me got one thing on me mind, To hold me little woman and fe mek her feel irie. Chorus Rock in a de dance, me seh fe give dub a chance, Rock in de blues, you know you jus' can't lose. A dub me a defend, on dub i can depend Check out dis yah music and run tell yo' friend. We don't want rock 'n' roll and we got enough soul, We don't want rock 'n' roll and we got enough soul. Bass is beutiful if it's clean, But dis yah dub music, man it well mean. No bother follow friend and ignore dub again. It's simple, but effective, can't you see? A lot of people catch on in 'eighty-three. Now is 'eighty-four and you must know the score, Anything me chat, you know the people bawl 'more.' Me jump 'pon de graphics, don't get vex' All me have a total concept to make you feel Irie. To make you feel Irie. |

You tell me there's no darkness
While the sun shines down on you And just because your life is peaceful There's no fighting left to do For every cup that runneth over Many more are filled with pain You talk to me of sunshine When it's pouring down with rain Just because you can't see it Doesn't mean it isn't there Just because it can't touch you Doesn't mean you shouldn't care For every life that's lit with love Many more are racked with pain You talk to me of sunshine When it's pouring down with rain (CHORUS) It's a long black night, good people Descended on our land Share your light Make a flower grow In the desert sand |

We'd welcome riches down our way No stigma knotted in my hair I want to be a millionaire Nevertheless I must insist A thought is spared for those who missed The handouts when it came to wealth To education and good health The time has come now all can see As seeing this is killing me our future victim to command Together we can lend a hand Chorus So don't blame me for wanting more The facts are too hard too ignore I'm scared to death of poverty I only want whats best for me But even so I'm holding on I think the world can live as one If only credence took the lead The world would see a world to feed An endless sea of blood that's spilt Enough to sail an ark of guilt And when we lend our helping hand We'll have our green and pleasant land |

Don't do the crime,
If you can`t do the time It's said that it just don't pay. But what good's working hard When all they give you is your cards And you know there's not much you can say. So you take what they give You've no money to live And your family don't understand. After all these years They will end up in tears With a mountain of bills in their hands. Chorus Now your lesson is learned There's nowhere to turn And it's no use pleading for help. When you're left on the heap There is nothing to keep you From going and helping yourself The dilemma you've found Is you`re morally bound Now your moral code needs a review So what do you care You know life isn't fair And for years they've been stealing from you. |

There's no-one coming with that freedom train.
There's nowhere you can go where you feel no pain. Take the blinkers off you eye's, The power is in your hand. Stop waiting for your ticket to the promised land. There ain't no heaven and there ain't no hell. Except the one we're in, and you know to well There's no-one waiting on, Waiting on a higher high. Don't let the only world you're ever gonna live in pass you by.

You might believe, and still you feel the chase has just begun.
That you must reach that horizon before the setting of the sun. You chase the light in front of you, nightfall close behind. If you stop to catch your breath, you know what you will find. Chorus Don't slow down don't touch the ground. You know what you will find. That old grey man in tattered clothes following behind. No time to stop, don't go to sleep, prepare to pay the cost. The hours and minutes are passing by, another day is lost. Impatience is a virtue, catch me if you can. The seconds have been ticking by since your life began |

We can talk or just hang around Shoot the breeze, tell me what you found On your search for some common ground Think of me when the moon is high Counting stars in the clear night sky Think of me when the moon is blue Sitting here just thinking of you I've been here and I've been there It's the same most everywhere We're all trying to get away Live to fight another day In my dreams I will follow you Any place that you want me to Tomorrow waits on the other side Patiently for the sun to rise Don't go now can't you stay a while Light my night with your loving smile Once you were gone but now your home I couldn't bear being all alone I've been here and I've been there It's the same most everywhere I've been here and I've been there It's the same most everywhere We're all trying to get away Live to fight another day [2x] |

Every breath you take
And every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take I'll be watching you Every single day Every word you say Every game you play Every night you stay I'll be watching you Oh, can't you see You belong to me? How my poor heart aches With every step you take Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace I dream at night, I can only see your face I look around, but it's you I can't replace I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace I keep crying baby, baby please Oh, can't you see You belong to me? How my poor heart aches With every step you take Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake, every claim you stake I'll be watching you Every breath you take, every move you make I'll be watching you... |

Everything is better now
Better than is was before Sunshine on a golden bough Darkness locked behind closed door Now I found a better place Somewhere I can lay my head Clean fresh air and open space Safe upon my feather bed I've been a mistake maker For all of my days And a law breaker But crime never pays An overtaker On lifes highways A serial faker Making getaways I've been a mover and a groover In the halls of power A real bad loser In my darkest hour A high seas cruiser Searching tropical flowers A pick and chooser In an ivory tower Now I'm a man of peace With a hungry soul For I found release In a lost loophole I'm the materpiece Who just scored the goal Let the love increase Now I'm in control |

Running too and fro And if you ask them where they`re going Half of the don`t know They`re the ones who think I`m crazy But they don`t realize (Chorus) That I`m just groovin, groovin Grooving out on life I`m just groovin ooh grovin Grovin till I die I see a river flowing by me Heading for the sea I get a feeling deep inside me It`s so good to be free I`ve got sunshine in the daytime And moonlight every night And I`m just groovin ...... (Middle Eight) I see a river flowing by me Heading for the sea I get a feeling deep inside me It`s so good to be free I`ve got sunshine in the daytime And moonlight every night And I`m just groovin ...... (Chorus) That I`m just groovin, groovin Grooving out on life I`m just groovin ooh grovin Grovin till I die |

Well hello baby
Come sit down, make your self comfortable Tell me somthing, how long have we known each other? About ten months huh? Say what's that on your finger? An engagement ring? So you and John are getting engaged, huh? You know he's a mighty lucky guy Should be proud to have a woman like you Listen, I've got something to tell you Don't think I'm getting fresh or anything like that But this things been bugging me for a long time you know And its getting heavier each and every day And I've just gotta get it off my chest See I've never seen anyone like you I've never known anyone like you Let me take me back to my childhood a while See we had a medium size family you know, we weren't rich But my mother tried to bring us the best she could Didn't commit no crime nor nothing But I had to reach manhood to commit this crime According to the code of love, if there is such a code See love is a thing well, you know? It's a bit like quicksand The more you wriggle the deeper you sink And when it hits you you've just got to fall That's why I do believe that I am guilty Guilty of loving you |
