Текст песни Take It Or Leave It (Sound Of Sha'bass) с переводом

MAN’S VOICE ON PHONE:

Yo! Glory, Ces, Divine, it’s Dave here. Listen. I’ve got this deal with Rod,

Jane and Freddy

(*laughter in background*)

Remember them? Rainbow

(Buggin')

Well they’re startin' up a little rap group now, and they want you to appear on

their first album

(Hahaaa, Zippy)

The one problem is, you’ve got to change your lyrics

('E's 'avin' a laugh, in’ee?)

(A wa do dem? A wa do dem dem dem?

A wa do dem? A wa do dem dem dem?)

DIVINE: And you know what’s up with them kids, boy, word

(And me nuh know, and me nuh kno-o-ow)

DIVINE: Cesare, fling down some serious beats for us. Yo G! Are we gonna change

the lyrics or what, G?

GLORY B: Emphatically, hell no!

(Me nuh know, and me nuh kno-o-ow)

DIVINE:

You wanna get dumb? Well just for fun

We turned around and came up with this one

Lyrics so hard they make your girl cum

Think I’m joking? Why are her legs smoking

You stayed there thinking it 'cos she dancing

I should know I made the rap

With an unspeakable unheard of format

You wonder how I tell you how

With endurance baby and the sweat on my brow

Many have tried to hold us back, you know what I’m saying?

they try to tell us how to behave

What an outrage we put the image in the grave

But damn, why it gotta be like that?

Tell me why the hell they wanna dilute rap

We bring 'em the creme de la creme on a platter

And all they wanna do is chitter chatter not

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? You must be having a laugh, man

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? You gotta be smokin' ham

(Don't say this, don’t, don’t

Don’t say this, don’t, d-d-don't

Don’t say this, don’t, don’t

Don’t say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

GLORY B:

Oh man, oh man, when it rains it pours

If I was watching a video I would’ve been pressed pause

'Cos you couldn’t take the weight of the SOS force

Wanna dilute the cause and take what’s yours?

I ain’t havin' it, don’t get me vexed, what you gonna tell me next

You need blue eyes to reach the apex?

Hmmmmm, I suppose you want dancers too

And Levis, and cowboy boots? Ha, fuck you!

'Cos I ain’t the one, son, forget your funky drum pop song

And listen to this one

When I’m done don’t wanna hear your opinion

Ya pum pum

DIVINE: That ain’t the word

GLORY: But it’s a synonym

What you see is what you get

So don’t try to play me out like a wannabe reject

I should know what my own glory is

So save your breath, you’re beginning to bore me with

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? Go’way with that, man, shut up

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? You gotta be smokin' ham

(A wa do dem? A wa do dem dem dem?

A wa do dem? A wa do dem dem dem?

And me nuh know, and me nuh kno-o-ow)

DIVINE: Ah yeah

(Me nuh know, and me nuh kno-o-ow)

DIVINE: Come widdit bad boy!

Uh, yeah

Uh, yeah

Swing it on, swing it on

Uh, yeah

Cesare in the place, ah yeah

Uh, yeah

Uh, here we go here we go here we go y’all

DIVINE:

All rap fans hold tight

'Cos we got the might to write despite their blurred eyesight

They might screw or boo hoo but this is how it is

We gots to do (what's we got to do)

Eat, sleep, walk with a limp

Don’t eat no pork, no shrimp

Don’t need no pimp

Telling me what I can and can’t say

You shoulda done it my way, you missed your payday

Still, you’ll find some new jack

Let 'em do a rap, put 'em in a or a sack

Be happy with the money you made back

While the new jacks peddle for the Kit Kat?

Nah, that ain’t for me nor my kind

'Cos I’m the almighty Divine

Stick your deal where, your deal where the sun don’t shine

And let me carry on with my rhyme

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? You must be having a laugh, man

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? God damn, you’re smokin' ham

(Don't say this, don’t, d-d, don’t

Don’t say this, don’t, d-d-don't

Don’t say this, don’t, don’t

Don’t say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

DIVINE: C’mon let’s jet, G, Cesare’s quit

GLORY B: Nah, slap that shit back down, I ain’t done with it

Don’t need a pop chart to tell me I hit

'Cos this ain’t counterfeit, boy, it’s legit

an okey-dokey to provoke me

I ain’t singing your song sheet, this ain’t karaoke

I see clear through your lies and schemes

So clear you’d think I was advertising for

So please don’t attempt to adjust the set

'Cos you stand to be corrected and we ain’t done yet

The fruit of my success remains SOS

Even the man from Del Monte say yes!

You’re smoking a ham hock like it was a white rock

You won’t make me drop

(hip hop)

The cream will always rise to the top

So stop, keep your advice and thanks a lot

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? Go’way with that, man

(Don't say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

What? You got to be smokin' ham

(Don't say this, don’t, don’t

Don’t say this, don’t, d-d-don't

Don’t say this, don’t, don’t

Don’t say this, don’t say that, change your lyrics)

(A wa do dem? A wa do dem dem dem?

A wa do dem? A wa do dem dem dem?

And me nuh know, and me nuh kno-o-ow

Me nuh know, and me nuh kno-o-ow)
