The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tell them thing like those a no things like these
Cause things like those have flies and fleas
Some smoking coke, ignoring trees
Dem old dirty works and evilous deeds
Youth chad militant when yuh rome these streets
And nough no stand firm some go down pon knees
Just give thanks fi life, fi the birds and the beas
Protection while mi chadding pon the land or over seas
Cause dem lost, dem lost, dem lost in a kinky world
Kinky world
And dem gone, dem gone, dem gone
Freaky bwoy, freaky girls
Yow, dem lost, dem lost, dem lost
In a kinky world, kinky world
Dem gone, dem gone, dem gone
Freaky bwoy, freaky girl
Mi si dem but mi naw go sit down and no seh nothing
Jamaica need some harrod wi fi stand up fi supn
Some a eat certain meat and mi sure a no mutton
Nough a nam down the place dem so greedy and glutton
Alright hold a reverence, youth hold a drive
No defile yo self mine yo get destroy
Wa deh behind close door star come out now
So try mi meck wi bun wa fi bun out now
Cause dem lost, dem lost, dem lost in a kinky world
Kinky world
And dem gone, dem gone, dem gone
Freaky bwoy, freaky girls
Yow, dem lost, dem lost, dem lost
In a kinky world, kinky world
Dem gone, dem gone, dem gone
Freaky bwoy, freaky girl
Tell them thing like those a no things like these
Cause things like those have flies and fleas
Some smoking coke, ignoring trees
Dem old dirty works and evilous deeds
Youth chad militant when yuh rome these streets
And nough no stand firm some go down pon knees
Just give thanks fi life, fi the birds and the beas
Protection while mi chadding pon the land or over seas
Cause dem lost, dem lost, dem lost in a kinky world
Kinky world
And dem gone, dem gone, dem gone
Freaky bwoy, freaky girls
Yow, dem lost, dem lost, dem lost
In a kinky world, kinky world
Dem gone, dem gone, dem gone
Freaky bwoy, freaky girl
