[Intro]
Only give thanks an' praise unto the most high
Because he should be the closer protector to a man
Because all these things are abominations to Lord-God, ya
[Verse 1]
’Cause every day di girls dress up in a trousers
I say, what happen to your skirts an' blouses?
Why can't I man see you in your dresses?
’Cause these things unto Jah Jah not pleases
An' every day dem a worship vanities
An' your greatest lust is jewelries
[Chorus]
Mind Jah lick you with diseases (Hey)
Mind Jah lick you with diseases (Hey-a)
Di most dangerous diseases (Huh)

Di other one is di poliomyelitis
Arthritis an' di one diabetes (You see?)
[Verse 2]
'Cause everyday dat are turnin' bible pages
From Proverbs forward to Genesis
An' Revelation to weekly Ecclesiastes
But let mi tell you, say, mi wisdom increases
An’ di lust have di world, it decreases
While every day man a build explosives
Di corruption of di world, it exposes
[Chorus]

While di star that shines from di galaxies
An’ it shines on human faces
Hear di cry of di Israelite voices
Who once led by di man Moses

Help us out of di crisis (Hey)
Jah, we need your advices (Hey)
Help us out of di crisis (You see?)
