Lyrics

Bulby yuh a listen
 Ready
 Protect yuh neck
 Protect yuh neck
 Protect yuh head don't tek nuh check
 Protect yuh neck
 Look over yuh shoulder
 Yuh a hear mi now
 Duh nuh come out afta midnight iyah
 All inna broad daylight dem a tek life
 So imagine afta dark when di action start
 Wat a guh gwaan
 Duh nuh come out afta x-30
 Dem yah yute yah well blood tirsty
 Nuh mek sun down ketch yuh inna town
 Tek weh yuh self now
 Ova war-rieka hill
 War neva stand still
 And inna garden
 Mi neva see nuh cultivation nor nuh farming-a gwaan
 Dem will done yuh inna kirk (dunkirk)
 All ova watahouse a drought still dem will wet yuh
 Is like yuh life nuh have nuh worth
 I look inna callaloo bed
 And nuh see nuh mo' vegetarian alone
 And get dis straight sah
 Chant for a safer jamaica
 Who name dem place yah
 Dem neva know seh word sound a powah
 Yuh got to be care-ful
 And protect yuh neck
 Protect yuh head back
 Careful and protect yuh neck protect yuh head
 When yuh come out afta x-30
 Nuh trust nuh blue suit nor khaaki
 Nuff a pose like police and dem a tief
 Worst dan di klan weh wrap up inna white sheet
 Freaks come out anytime it touch dark
 Watch how yuh walk inside di park
 He turn she and she turn he some sight to see
 Swap identity and waah come mingle wid we
 New kingston
 Mi si dem a dust but mi nuh see nothing done
 For my people
 Still no one knows the reason
 And mi guh ask a hope road
 Still it was hopeless cause no one would hear ma cry
 Di struggle still continue
 And inna payneland burn di pain and mek wi hold a joy
 Get dis straight sah
 Work for a safer jamaica
 Sweetest land sweetest watah
 Dash weh di pirate cultcha
 Yuh got to be care-ful
 And protect yuh neck
 Protect yuh head back
 Careful and protect yuh neck protect yuh head
 Yuh betta protect yuh neck
 Protect yuh neck
 Protect yuh head don't tek nuh check
 Protect yuh neck
 And look over yuh shoulder
 Mi well waah come out afta x-30
 Mi nuh waah nuh curfew country
 Woman and man tired fi lock up inna house
 Well waah come out and sport all bout
 When wi come out and start party
 Yuh nuh si nuh one hot like we
 Nuh mek pagan mash up wi country
 In communit twist [?] up in love and inity
 Shooters hill
 Di war neva stand still
 And inna garden
 Mi neva si nuh cultivation nor nuh farming
 Now dem will done yuh inna kirk
 All ova waterhouse a drought still dem will wet yuh
 Is like yuh life nuh have nuh worth
 And inna callaloo bed mi nuh si nuh mo vegetarian alone
 Mek wi get dis straight sah
 Chant for a safer jamaica
 Who name dem place yah
 Dem neva seh word sound a powah
 Hey
