The Slaughter Songtext
von Cutty Ranks

Well, everybody stay pon pause
Cah me in deh yah now
Eeh?
And you done know me no ramp
Original rude boy style, man
Dem style deh concrete, and grill up, and well painted, eeh?

Lord, Lord, Lord, this a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
A di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back

A nuff of dem a talk ′bout a dem run di town
Mix dem up and turn dem inna clown
This one dem yah lyrics we come fi fling down
Listen Raggamuffin pon di king sound


A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back

A nuff of dem a pose like a dem run di scene
Put di whole of dem inna di mince machine
Listen Raggamuffin, how mi lyrics dem clean
Yes, Kutty Ranks, Lord, you kind, you no mean

A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
A di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
A di slaughter
And then me come back


Cah, Ragga, mi Ragga, mi Raggamuffin
Galang Kutty Rank waan go clip off dem wing
Say, you're rougher than the shark, badder than the dolphin
Hold on di DJ, teach him discipline
Then me chuck inna di river fi go hold a swim
Set on di pot, mi boil six dumpling
Murder mi name, mi proud of mi living
When me come a dance hall, me a shock, and me a sing

A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back

Put di whole of dem pon di cutting table
Cut dem up and get comfortable
Listen Kutty Ranking, just a bubble
Dem mess with me, that a double trouble

A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
A di slaughter
And then me come back
A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
A di slaughter
And then me come back

Say, me rule inna Paris, control down a Rome
Me done work, so me mash it and come home
Eat this yah chicken and throw ′way di bone
And a listen Kutty Ranking control di throne

Slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back

A nuff DJ say that dem run di town
Mix dem up and turn dem inna clown
Listen Raggamuffin pon di king sound
Listen dem yah lyrics weh me come fi fling down
King without a throne is like a man without a home
Listen Kutty Ranking pon di microphone

A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back

A nuff of dem a talk 'bout a dem run di scene
Put di whole of dem inna di mince machine
Galang Kutty Rank, 'cause your lyrics dem clean
When you come a dance, and you′re fresh, and you′re clean
Listen Raggamuffin come fi nice up di scene
Hands and heart, it have fi pure and clean

A di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
This a di slaughter
And then me come back
This a di slaughter
Take dem to di butcher shop
A di slaughter
And then me come back
Because me wicked, wicked, and well-
