Bus Dem Shut Pyaka Lyrics

Bus Dem Shut Pyaka

Bob Marley]



            Life is for man to live   (Let man live life!  Ba, ba, ba-ba,
ba-ah!);

            Bread is for man to eat (Let man eat bread!  Ba, ba, ba-ba,
ba-ah!).

            Bread and pyaka:

            Cut down pyaka-yism!

            Bread and pyaka:

            Cut down pyaka-yism!



            Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon;

            Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon;

            Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon;

            Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon.

            Come, we go reason now;

            Come-a, come-a come-a, we go reason now (we deh go reason now);

            Come-a, come-a come-a, we go reason now (we deh go reason now);

            Come-a, come-a come-a, we go reason now (we deh go reason now).



            Where do you stand for happiness (wa-la, wa-la!)

            When you no say you no want it,

            While some o' dem (some o' dem, some o' dem) out deh, eh!



            I bus dem shut right now

            Fi get it.

            Bread and pyaka:

            Cut down pyaka-yism!

            Bread and pyaka:

            Cut down pyaka-yism!



            Woman feel the pain;

            Man suffer, Lord.

            Woman feel the pain;

            Man suffer, Lord.



            Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;

            Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;

            Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;

            A-come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;

            Oh, come-a, come, come-a: we go reason now;

            Bread and pyaka;
