World Gone Mad

Beenie Man

Verse 1: How some bwoy a talk suh like a dem one get di power 
when pu-pum dem a devour 
eat di girl like dem a flour 
sex di girl dem by di hour 
mek dem bawl fi all dem madda 
cool mek mi line up mi girl dem get dem togetha 

How some guy a dis mi when mi talk mi nah guh rhyme 
my toe mi jam mi drop a sign 
a me di gal dem waan fi wine 
because di DJ nah rewind 
because dem cyaan come touch mi style 
because di DJ nah guh talk like nuh Calvin Klein 

How dem a try fi dis mi when dem know wi find new gear 
because a we one rule di year 
di gal dem play up inna wi hair 
di gal dem treat wi with care 
because di clothes a weh wi wear 
because dem know seh wicked man a rasta man wi nah guh fear 
but... 


Chorus: Has di worl gone mad?

Please tell mi nuh 
Has di worl gone mad?

Verse 2: Rastaman nuh mix up inna babylon business 
Because dem know wi work suh hard

Because di way wi treat wi life 
And all di way how wi guh live 
Dem nuh like wi cause wi tink positive 
And yo..hey 

Nuff a dem keep up every day dem inna di killing 
And a one bag a looting and join up inna bag a shooting 
Then policeman haffi ketch him 
When dem ketch him dem guh shot him 
Yuh hear him mumma deh bawl "what a innocent ting!" 
hey... 

Everyday yuh get up inna di cold yuh still nuh sure yet 
Di whole heap a money weh yuh mek mi seh becareful how yuh spend it 
Well yuh haffi spen it wisely and nuh mek police man touch it 
Else you a guh get deport and Lukie waan guh live it and....
