Sooner or later someone going have to pay
You take I on your trip
On your stinky slave ship
Some of us survive
While others take their lives
I say
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
The jews making claims for their Holocaust
The Indian a claim fe the land that they lost
What about the Nina, the Pinta, the Santa Maria ?
And de Africans slaves that you raid from Africa
What about the Nina, the Pinta, the Santa Maria ?
And the gold and the diamonds you rob from Africa
That's why I say
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
You take away me roots
You take away me culture
Fly down like a scavenger
Acting like a vulture, oh yeah !
The jews making claims for their Holocaust
The Indian a claim fe the land that they lost
What about the Nina, the Pinta, the Santa Maria ?
And the gold and the diamonds you rob from Africa
What about the Nina, the Pinta, the Santa Maria ?
And de Africans slaves that you raid from Africa
That's why I say
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
You take away me roots
You take away me culture
Fly down like a scavenger
Acting like a vulture, oh yeah !
You so gravilicious, malicious and covetious
And with you dirty greed
Greater than you need
You so gravilicious, malicious and covetious
And with your dirty greed
Greater than you need, oh yeah !
Time to pay the piper
Mr. Rip and Run Off
A long time you and your guy dem
Dem a grab and a laugh
Time to pay the piper
