Skin Flesh Bones by Nicodemus Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 1982

[Intro]
Maybe this sound play comin' down by a man who feel no way
Man, this is Reggae music, you never refuse it (Murderer!)
You know, wicked an' crucial style

[Pre-Verse]
Give dem, mi a go give dem
Mi a go give dem in a rub-a-dub style, style
Mi born as a discipline child, child
Jah man, mi say, it wicked an' wild
Say, if I tell you, cyaan cut it, man, it a go spoil
Say, boy you better go 'way with your [?] (Hey!)

[Verse 1]
Say, whether if you young, or mi say, whether you fi old
Well, all I gonna give you, some a Rockers, no soul
Make di lover go, say, baby, make di lover stay
Well, nobody feel no way, you got to hear a weh mi say

[Chorus]
Mi skull bone connectеd to mi jaw bone
Mi jaw bone connectеd to mi collar bone
Mi collar bone connected to mi chest bone
Mi chest bone connected to mi ribs bone
Mi ribs bone connected to mi spine bone
Mi spine bone connected to mi leg bone
Mi leg bone connected to mi knee bone
Mi knee bone connected to mi ankle bone
Mi ankle bone connected to mi toe bone
Mi toe bone connected to mi toenail bone
[Post-Chorus]
What a whole heap a bone [Scatting]
Dis a skin, flesh a bone a fi mi own
Jah man, Nicodemus a go mash it an' go home
For, some a dem a talk 'bout, mi hear one come
Mi dash away di scissors an' mi broke off di comb (Hey!)

[Verse 2]
For, mi say, whether if you near, for, mi say, whether if you far
A no blur, mi a blur, mi a real movie star
Some a fire SLR, say, it shoot far
For, when mi go to dance, mi ongle forward at di bar

[Chorus]
Mi skull bone connected to mi jaw bone
Mi jaw bone connected to mi collar bone
Mi collar bone connected to mi chest bone
Mi chest bone connected to mi ribs bone
Mi ribs bone connected to mi spine bone
Mi spine bone connected to mi leg bone
Mi leg bone connected to mi knee bone
Mi knee bone connected to mi ankle bone
Mi ankle bone connected, mi say, to mi toe bone

[Post-Chorus]
What a whole heap a bone
Jah man, for, mi say, skin, flesh a bone a fi mi own
Jah man, for, mi say, skin, flesh a bone a fi mi own
[Verse 3]
Mi say, a man without a throne is like a king without a home
A king without a throne is like a man without a home
For, some a throw stone, a some a mash down Rome
For, David sling Goliath with a sling an' a stone
Mi say, some say kill di Philistines with the donkey jaw bone

[Post-Verse]
What a whole heap a bone
Cah, let mi tell you 'bout di boneman connection
Hail Jah man, a dis a boneman connection (Well, watch out, man!)

[Verse 4]
Mi say, mi mother work a radio station
Jah man, mi say, mi father work a corporation
Jah man, mi a musician [Scatting]
For, dis a boneman connection
For, mi say, whether if you near, for, mi say, whether if you far
Some a fire SLR, talk 'bout it shoot too far
For, when mi go to dance, mi ongle forward at di bar

[Outro]
Dis a boneman connection
Hail Jah man, mi come fi nice up di nation
