Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
[Verse 2]
My good old prophet Marcus Garvey prophesised it
"St. Jago de la Vega and Kingston is gonna meet"
And I can see with mine own eyes
It's only a housing scheme that divide
[Verse 3]
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash, it dread
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
[Verse 4]
Look up a cotton tree out by Ferry police station
How beautiful it used to be
And it has been destroyed by lightning
Earthquake and thunder, I say
What?
[Verse 5]
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash, it dread
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
[Verse 6]
I take a ride sometimes
On Penn Overland and Bronx
And sometimes I ride on bus X-82
Say what?
[Verse 7]
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
[Verse 8]
Marcus Garvey was inside
Of Spanish Town District Prison
And when they were about to take him out
He prophesised and said
"As I pass through this gate
No other prisoner shall enter and get through"
And so it is until now
The gate has been locked
Say what?
[Verse 9]
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash, it dread
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash, it bitter, bitter, bitter
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash, a man a go feel it
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash, you better do right
Wat a liiv an bambaie
When the two sevens clash
