V's version


Dais a de start and not the finish na go deal it with ace
I like to ride up in the ridim wid de treble and the base
Not a courtroom could a hold me cause they wouldn`t have a case
So don`t you hurry don`t rush me no in a no haste
Me na go chat dais one fast ca a no race me a race
Cas sis v de pan de mike I beg you keep up the pace
And who a star wid mr t it`s hannibal, murdock and face
I`m sure you noticed on the mike that I am in the right place
I`m gonna chat it in a style and chat it in a grace
Eat good food drink good you know that's to my taste
Now make sure eat it drink it all off na make none go to waste
And who`s aeoberti upon falcon crest you know him a chase
Se that the top of the crew sis v I may seem
See that me deal wid realism get guided by all my dream
Now rasberry ripple as you know it is my favourite ice-cream
So when me step in a de dance in my gear I just gleam
I am the top mile women that's why i`m standing so keen
Don`t wa fe hear no pirate chat ca dem no in a my team
Se dat me de pan level vibes so chatting this i`m the queen
Why don`t you shake a leg why don`t you rock and come in
Don`t bother fight in a de dance don`t want police an the scene
To sparkle all the polishing you`ll have to use mr sheen
Incredible hulk transformation gigantic and green
So when you look in a him face he stares at you really mean
I like to eat up my steak better make sure it lean
Just add some rice add some dumplin but leave out the bean
Me na go to resturant sit down and eat three course meal
Me a chat it verbally don`t want it signed stampedor sealed
In a de old avengers starred steed and mrs peel
Who robbie box that gambler on the programme big deal
This one is live and direct so you know it`s for real
I don`t respect dais ya system don`t expect me to kneel
Cause jesus christ worked his miracle many man ham did heal

Ca man dem make out a flesh and robots made our of steel
They might can operate like man unlike man they can`t feel
Don`t bother mix with no informer cause on you they might squeal

Cas me se when you have a spliff you must kark it
And when you have a dog you must walk it
Cause it might just do a number two upon your carpet
You have to get down on your knee and begin to clean it
Well in a de white house mr reagen a sit
And when me go a nasa dema launch rocket
So when a got a needle save myself nine stitch
While joan collins she`s starring as the super bitch
Now i`m not exactly poor but i`m certainly ain`t rich
I`m gonna preach it right don`t bother call me hypercrit
Don`t want hear tony butler me no check fe critic
Ca when I get a curly perm jahman just use a home kit
And if i`m forced to hear a pirate dash dem down a snake pit
Mak pirina knam dem tear them flesh bit by bit
Ca sister de pan de mile and I have got nough lyric
Jim davidson teasing plice with his catch phrase nick nich
Upon my wrist I wear a watch how does it go tock tick
And who is starring with magnum higgins tc and rick
Ca tony labour sdp jahman dem all make me sick
Because dem na go get my vote ca me no vote for politic
A me a sister v upon the mike coming through
Se me a top a de chart jahman and top of the crew

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

There used to be a joke that UB40 stood for the "Unemployed Birmingham 40", because there were so many band members in their videos, and none of them looked exactly sharp-suited. In fact the pop-reggae band did name themselves after an unemployment benefit form, though there was never 40 members - only eight, plus guests. They formed in 1979 and made a breakthrough when their debut single, "King/Food For Thought", was the first ever single to break the UK Top 10 on an independent label. Debut album Signing Off (1980) reached No.2 on the album chart and eventually achieved platinum sales. The group toured and recorded regularly, achieving another No.2 album in 1981 (Present Arms) a No.4 in 1982 (UB44) and finally a UK album chart-topper in 1983 with Labour of Love. That was also their American breakthrough, reaching No.8 on the Billboard 200. A cover of Neil Diamond's "Red, Red Wine" gave the band their first No.1 single in the UK, and it would eventually top the American singles chart too on re-release in 1988.
