Most wanted
Yaka yaka, yaka yaka yaka

Yaka yaka, yaka yaka yaka
Who want the Dancehall fi stop? Police!
Who no want fi see herbs a shop? Police!
Who kill the youths pon the block? Police!
Them no want fi hear truth, most left thoughts
Who haffi see hearse a drive? Police!
How the easiest man fi bribe? Police!
Them no want fi see the youths survive? Police!
As we see them, ghetto youth haffi die
A who have the legal long gun?
Who a murder the youths dem a jamdown?
A who haffi no sent youths lockdown?
Ask the herb farmers who burn the herbs down
From me a likkle youth me know
Every man haffi go reap what them sow
A whole heap of innocent brains them blow
Whole heap a blood them flow
Who want the Dancehall fi stop? Police!
Who no want fi see herbs a shop? Police!
Who kill the youths pon the block? Police!
Them no want fi hear truth, them no right thoughts
Who haffi see hearse a drive? Police!
How the easiest man fi bribe? Police!
Them no want fi see the youths survive? Police!
As we see them, ghetto youth haffi die
I see them everyday pon the highway
Roadblock dem hang pon the freeway
See dem every night
Nah do no right
Now run fi search you at the stop light
Ina the helicopter with dem spotlight
(That's why them lock off the light, waan be in darkness)
Big fool play
That the world a say
Fi the murdering of breathen weh dem
Who want the Dancehall fi stop? Police!
Who no want fi see herbs a shop? Police!
Who kill the youths pon the block? Police!
Them no want fi hear truth, them no right thoughts
Who haffi see hearse a drive? Police!
How the easiest man fi bribe? Police!
Them no want fi see the youths survive? Police!
As me see them, took me haffi make a die

SO you haffi be careful what dem taught you ina dem traps
Dem nah lock you up them a lick out your head back
Sit there ina di city blood
The alms house!
Lootin' and shootin' must stop
And that's why Anthony B a bun the fire hot
Me call the youths dem from Jungle and Rema back
The youths dem from waterhouse the valley, now you see
Aye, Mama cry!
Why dem want the Dancehall fi stop? Police!
Who no want fi see herbs a shop? Police!

A Who haffi innocent them lockdown?
Ask the herb farmers who burn the herbs down
