Under Me Sleng Teng marked a paramount point in history for the production of riddims. The Sleng Teng riddim is now one of the most re-recorded Jamaican riddims of all time, which is incredible given its experimental nature: it was one of the first entirely digitally-produced riddims. Sleng Teng was...
Way in my brain
It's way in my brain
It's way in my brain
Well now
[Chorus]
Under me sleng teng, me under me sleng teng
Under me sleng teng, me under me, eh-eh-eh
Under me sleng teng, me under me sleng teng
Under me sleng teng, me under me, eh-eh-eh
Way in my brain, no cocaine
I don't wanna, I don't wanna go insane
Way in my brain, no cocaine
I don't wanna, I don't wanna go insane
[Chorus]
Because in my eyes there is red like blood
And I've been moving around like a human flood
Smoke comes out my mouth and out of my nose
I blow it in the air 'cause it must expose
[Chorus]
In Westmoreland, where the Sensi come from
Me put it in a crocus barrel, upon the mini van
Take the seed and me make the hash oil
And me put in a barrel 'cos me know it no spoil
[Chorus]
Under my slen-eng teng
Me under my slen-eng teng
It's way in my brain
It's way in my brain
In my eyes there is red like blood
And I've been moving around like a human flood
Smoke comes out my mouth, and out of my nose
I blow it in the air and make the smoke expose
In Westmoreland, where the Sensi come from
Me put it in a crocus barrel, upon the mini van
Take the seed and me make the hash oil
And me put in a barrel 'cos me know it no spoil
[Chorus]
Because it's way in my brain, no cocaine
I don't wanna, I don't wanna go insane
Way in my brain, no cocaine
I don't wanna, I don't wanna go insane
Oh no
It's way in my brain
It's way in my brain
It's way in my brain
I said me smoke it and me pass it through the window
And me give it to my next door neighbour
I said me smoke it and me pass it through the window
And me give it to my next door neighbour
Because in my eyes there is red like blood
And I've been moving around like a human flood
Smoke comes out my mouth and out of my nose
I smoke it in the air, 'cause it must expose
[Chorus]
Way in my brain
It's way in my brain
It's way in my brain
It's way in my brain
I said me smoke it and me pass it through the window
And me give it to my next door neighbour
I said me smoke it and me pass it through the window
And me give it to my next door neighbour
In Westmoreland, where the Sensi come from
I put it in the crocus barrel, upon the mini van
Take the seed and me make the hash oil
And me put in the barrel 'cos me know it no spoil
[Chorus]
