Pimper’s Paradise is track number 7 from Bob Marley’s “Uprising”. Lyrically based, it is exquisite and based around the downsides of stardom.
[Verse 1]
She love to party, have a good time
She looks so hearty, feeling fine
She loves to smoke, sometime shifting coke
She'll be laughing when there ain't no joke
[Chorus]
A pimper's paradise: that's all she was now
A pimper's paradise: that's all she was
A pimper's paradise: that's all she was now
Pimper's paradise: that's all she was
(Every need got an ego to feed
Every need got an ego to feed)
[Verse 2]
She loves to model up in the latest fashion
She's in the scramble and she moves with passion
She's getting high, trying to fly the sky
Yeah! Now she is bluesin' when there ain't no blues
[Chorus]
[Outro]
A pimper's paradise: that's all she was now
A pimper's paradise: that's all she was
A pimper's paradise: I'm sorry for the victim now
Oh, now soon their (pimper's paradise) - soon their heads - soon their
Soon their very heads will bow
(Pimper's paradise) Don't lose track - don't lose track of yourself, oh no!
(Pimper's paradise) Don't be just a stock - a stock on the shelf
Stock on the shelf
(Pimper's paradise) that's all she was now
