Well look what I found!!
'You're a Nancy, you are a comedian And if you go on, you ain't no better Oh baby, show me coming and come for a pick it up Girl, I'm Nancy, you're gross-nated I'm too short for my mount Oh, I'm gross-nated, you are red, yeah Gravelicious, also crummy Like ready-done, won't try for yourself Monster, do better Auntie Tucuma, you're in one corner Set your action line But 5446, surely leave it behind Keep yourself quiet, hold on to what you've got Don't try to be like, Pearl and Nancy Durant You'll be suffocated, Pearl and Nancy Auntie Tucuma You're a Nancy, you are a comedian And if you go on, you ain't no better Oh baby, show me coming and come for a pick it up Girl, I'm Nancy, you're gross-nated I'm too short for my mount Oh, I'm gross-nated, you are red, yeah'
I dont know if these are legit...but it's funny to compare to my desperate attempt of 2020!
The lyrics for this have driven me crazy for nearly 40 years. From what I can make out it's something like:
Drop Anansi, you are a copy cat,
Auntie Tukuma, you aint no better,
Yuh, me tune he come a like a carnival, oh a big, big joke,
Drop Anansi, you're pro-strated, how to shut me mout(h),
But, my grow stated: you are red yaye, grabalicious,
Also grumbly, like rabid dog,
Won't try for yourself, c'mon star, do better,
(steel pan drums break)
Auntie Tukuma, you're in one corner,
Said you're action line, but 5, 4, 4, 6, surely leave you behind,
Keep yourself quiet, hold on to what you've got,
Don't try to be like, girl Anansi te rot,
You'll be so far forgotten, girl Anansi,
Auntie Tukuma, dog, dog,
Yang we suffer, pom, pom,
Yang we suffer, boots, boots,
Yang we suffer, dog, dog,
Yang we suffer, pom, pom,
Yang we suffer, boots, boots,
Yang we suffer, dog,
Yang we suffer, hog,
Yang we suffer, boots,
Yang we suffer, dog (to fade).
Seriously man, I've leant soooooo much ear to the lyrics of this track (I even sent emails to try to reach DM's 'people' when he was still alive!!!), that if anyone can do better than this...well, I'd shake their virtual hand...and pass the crown in an instant!
Me g'wan!
