Lyrics:

Life is for man to live (Let man live life! Ba, ba, ba-ba, ba-ah!);


Bread is for man to eat (Let man eat bread! Ba, ba, ba-ba, ba-ah!).


Bread and pyaka:


Cut down pyaka-yism!


Bread and pyaka:


Cut down pyaka-yism!





Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon;


Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon;


Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon;


Everyt'ing ya run dung 'pon.


Come, we go reason now;


Come-a, come-a come-a, we go reason now (we deh go reason now);


Come-a, come-a come-a, we go reason now (we deh go reason now);


Come-a, come-a come-a, we go reason now (we deh go reason now).





Where do you stand for happiness (wa-la, wa-la!)


When you no say you no want it,


While some o' dem (some o' dem, some o' dem) out deh, eh!





I bus dem shut right now


Fi get it.


Bread and pyaka:


Cut down pyaka-yism!


Bread and pyaka:


Cut down pyaka-yism!





Woman feel the pain;


Man suffer, Lord.


Woman feel the pain;


Man suffer, Lord.





Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


Come-a, come, come-a: we go reason now;


Come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now.


Peeyah, peeyah, pyaka, come!


Peeyah, peeyah, pyaka, come!


Peeyah, peeyah, pyaka, come!


A-come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


A-come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


A-come-a, come-a, come-a: we go reason now;


Oh, come-a, come, come-a: we go reason now;


Bread and pyaka;


Sister pyaka;


Bread and pyaka;


Sister pyaka;


Cut down pyaka-yism!


Cut down pyaka-yism!


Cut down pyaka-ysim! /fadeout/
