Run dem chase, dem run dem,
Chase dem we ah fe run dem chase dem
Why you carry on in such an evilolus way
Cutting your eyes and throwing daggers every day
Forgive them becouse dem no know what dem ah do
You no do dem nothing but them still ah dog you
Dem see you with a little and they get envious
Slader your name and they talk and they curse
They don't want to see you blessed look right and proper
They would prefure to see your whole family dem suffer
What the hell is wrong with you
You want to make me sad and blue
Just move away i refuse to hear a word you say
Anit down with you how much you never knew
Know get yourself away from me
(bridge)
Run dem chase run the whole of them run
Run the boldhead outer ya
We ago run dem chase dem run the whole of dem run
Run der boldhead outter ya
Run dem chase run the whole of them run
Run the boldhead outer ya
We ago run dem chase dem run the whole of dem run
Run der boldhead outter ya
Boldhead is somebody who no have know conscience
Is only satan dem have in dem defence
Vampire and lier twisted false pretence
Inside of dem no have no contence
They wouldn't give the poor a penny not a knicle or a pence
Dem walk inner the room and make the whole room tence
And they chat pure fart and total nonsence
There ignorance is there death sentence what!
What the hell is wrong with you
You want to make me sad and blue
Just move away i refuse to hear a word you say
Anit down with you how much you never new
Know get yourself away from me
(bridge)
Run dem chase run the whole of them run

We ago run dem chase dem run the whole of dem run
Run der boldhead outter ya
Run dem chase run the whole of them run
Run the boldhead outer ya
We ago run dem chase dem run the whole of dem run
Run der boldhead outter ya
