Paint Up, Clean Up Time

If you hear the talk that's going around
We're going to clean up every town
From Kingston to Montego Bay
Beautify this island in every way

What a good thing it would be
What a lovely sight to see
Everybody lend a hand
We want this island looking grand

Get your house in line, keep it looking fine:
It's paint up, clean up time!

My neighbor never clean her yard
For six full months I was feeling sad
But I noticed the other day
Her house was looking bright and gay

Then I wondered to myself
I took meh paint from off the shelf
In short pants I'm bending low
I tell meh wife to help also

She start to complain, I had to explain:
It's paint up, clean up time!

Get your paintbrush, get your broom
Give a new look to every room
In every shop and every store
They're painting up as never before

Don't you think that me and you
Can also do the same thing too
Every house should look so nice
In this island paradise

Play your part, now's the time to start:
It's paint up, clean up time!

Believe me friend I nearly dead
Do my stalking under meh bed
Goin' have a suitcase in his hand
Silly man don't you understand

They're killing roach, they're killing flea
What you think they goin' do to me
I'm going to walk right out that door
I can't take the sting no more

Don't you know we got to go:
It's paint up, clean up time!
