lyrics

“Let’s turn this place into Brixton zoo right now and the animals have escaped”


Well I love rubadub as you know
I
sing a little reggae ditty on the go

The melody ah tellin' me that I should show

My love for the reggae dub style done know!

Come follow me now to the start of the race,

everybody on their marks time to pick up the pace,

starting pistol at the ready as we ready for the chase,

my heart thump thump, sweat ah run down my face - and the gun go shot!

Every man be hot on my trail,

Gotta keeps my wits about me 'cause I need to prevail, and how,

the race has only begun just now and I leave them in a fat dust cloud - I can't

fail,
I gotta show them that I've got what it takes,

I gotta show them that I won't put on the brakes,

I gotta show them that I'll make my mistakes 'cause they're mine and I can't run
away.

Well some of them people try and slow me down

but i'm running at an excellent speed

lemme tell ya some of them people

try and broke me out but they won't catch a fucking penny from me

cos i see them nuff vampire

pure bloodsucker

stake to the heart now it's started

snake in the grass

mate you're bater than Carnage

take this to the grave

amen, you're departed

and if it ain't about money, why's your hand inna my pocket?

sure ain't a joke but i'm standing here laughing

tank when i'm warring

mandem applauding

talk about true colours? prick i'll run you red while i'm barring

Well I'll never let another man slow me down, reconsider life but it's not the

same.

And if you're listening you know my vocals come from my mouth, and then you



. 


know it came to life in my brain.

No, I'll never let another man write my songs, put me in a likkle thong when I

know I'm making their Wonga! Spending all the money that I make them on

another young thing with a bumper, little bit of talent when she sings, but no

comfort.

Wine up on my airwaves looking like Oompa Loompa, see her mouth ah moving

but she mime to her songs, yah. Got an awful lot of love fi Rubadub gone

suddenly my pain.
