hey, tax war, war over yah,
hey prime minister see it and watch out,
people a ball who di sufferer,
so the emperor haffi chant down babylon.
no man is an island so tell me what you say,
excellence we tired of no rent today, dont down the patti
boy and no food no di death,
so we walking blindfolded pon di edge,
i see my people trying through their mind, the paradise
surround depon prime time.
lootin, extortion, stealing and raping, victims abused
by the evil man
police and bad mind (batman XD), whose the criminal,
the one with the guns or the ones with the badge?
the big area don on the super message,
we dead outta gun and dem a live large. chorus
Rit.
war,war over yah
hey prime minister see it and watch out,
people a ball who di sufferer,
so the emperor haffi chant down babylon
big tax dem to I so movement cant give up, the bridge
start shake up, the post start crack up,
the water too rough so we get the plan jacked,
its a shark attack government turn their back pon we.
we aggo suffa, we tough like a rock but we step pon butter,
it will get betta yeh,

Rit.
war,war over yah
hey prime minister see it and watch out
people a ball who di sufferer
so teh emperor haffi chant down babylon

if i was a politican i would help my people out listening
to the voice of who can shout,
but now things get rough and the world can be hard
so it go and jam dem down.
Rit.

hey prime minister see it and watch out

so the emperor haffi chant down babylon
yes prime minister all i see is war.
