Lyrics
This is street music
Turn it up, mad we say
This is street music
Every day I’m on a fast lane
Try’n’a get me on that airplane
Will you hear about my complaints
Our limitations and our restraints?
Ah, it was dumplings for dinner
Now the word on the street is that they calling you a winner
Aw filly fung, scilly dung dung
Scilly dung fung all day, all day, all day
In ah the ghetto where mi from weh
Informer run weh
Ghetto where me from nasty boy can’t come deh
Skin will get bun deh all pon ah Sunday
Love buss mi gun when mi bored pon Monday
We affi know how fi stay alive
Make money pon the street
Without ah nine to five, that’s right
We affi know top fi stay alive
Survive, survive, yeah
Inna the ghetto weh mi stay alive
Make money pon the street
Without ah nine to five, that’s right
We have to survive, wooi wooi
’Member man used to suffer
Dumpling and butter
Now, ah rich mi say, rich mi say
Tell them poor life nah go no weh
We out fi de money cause
Tell dem nuh try nothing funny
Ah, it was dumplings for dinner
Now the word on the street is that they calling you a winner
Aw dilly fung, scilly dung dung
Scilly dung fung all day, all day, all
Every little make ah mokkle
We affi know how fi stay alive
Make money pon the street
Without ah nine to five, that’s right
We affi know top fi stay alive
Survive, survive, yeah
Inna the ghetto weh mi stay alive
Make money pon the street
Without ah nine to five, that’s right
We have to survive, wooi wooi
’Member man used to suffer
