Sync Different

Lord have ya seen Johnny Aberdeen

dis man's really amazin'

in three piece suit or jeans

he's in I magazine, on every tele screen

goin' whey no man no man has been

behind da scene oh behind da scene!

Ah wish dat I could be as righteous as Johnny

don't care 'bout di money, di gals or di glory

mi know de time will tell

if Johnny gone a hell or if Johnny's singin' wid angels!

Breddas and sistas do you remember

Aberdeen's last letter, him died of strong fever

di month was decemberbut who know di hour?

goin' whey no man no man has been

behind da scene oh behind da scene!

Ah wish dat I could see a good man like Johnny

don't care 'bout di money, di gals or di glory

Johnny never grow old, he had di heart of gold!

I laugh though dem take I for a fool

so I turn meself to di golden rule

like me dear old mama used to say

"don't worry just live you life day by day

keep on laughin' and sing likkle boy

life is a game we all must enjoy"



don't care about di passin' of time

evry second I live is divine,

like me dear old papa used to say

"dis world's an illusion come and play!"

keep on laughin' and sing likkle boy

life is a game we all must enjoy"

Mi come wid Garlic

So me di group and mi troop gonna try to move your feet

tuesdee nite 1.30
mi found di doctor like a dog inna heat and mi darlin' talkin' sweet:
"flip mi ova and bone mi doctor, push wood inna di fiya!"

Doctor! where's you manners? you no mo' mi fella
so mi ran to mi gun an' shoot dem dung inna di cella!!

and bye bye bye!

a likkle afta comin' from afar
a rumble in di yard growin loud and loud
mi run a di door mi open di door
good gracious a yellow ting like a flyin' scooter
mi decide fi meself to hopon

and him lied like a pharisee
but ah ain't got no fear

Skalipsoul is di highway robba
I back on earth wid 15000 dollas!

I lef mi mooma and A lef mi papa inna Sokodé
I lef mi bredda and a lef mi sista fi di land of plenty
I ran to di river di Kara river and A wash mi body deh
I asked sweet Dora from Bassila "Gimme Illa glacé"

Ah miss mi fufu mi bredda Fofo and mi can o' Milo

ah lef mi mooma and ah miss mi papa, mi hometown Sokodé
ah lef mi bredda dear ol' sista oh carry mi deh

mi cowry shell choker, I man joker, bro Yema pray for me
