Hey folitician, me seh hey folitician 
Me seh hey folitician 
Mek you go long so. 

You come chatty chatty chatty run up you' mouth, 
You come chatty chatty chatty run up you' mouth,
One man, one vote you hear from the shout. 
One man, one vote you hear from the shout.

You full of pure promise but you tell damn' lies; 
You full of pure promise but you tell damn' lies;
You make a mistake And then somebody dies. 
You make a mistake And then somebody dies.

Hey folitician, me seh hey folitician 
Me seh hey folitician 
What you doin 'bout the slums? 
You sit around all day, jus' a twiddle your thumbs; 
You have a strange expression 
Mek you look like you' dumb.
Mek you look like you' dumb. 

You worry everybody 'til you put them in a box. 
You worry everybody 'til you put them in a box. 

Dub freak gone 
Gone go check him record shop, 
Gone go check him record stock. 

Him climb upon the box 
Him said him got to reach the top; 
Him climb upon the shelf 
Him seh you take care yourself. 
Him dance upon the floor 
Him said a music galore
Him said a music galore. 

Dub freak, dub freak 
Deh 'pon the go; 
Say you never know 
Because I told you so. 

Sippa, sippa, sippa, sippa, lightning crash; 
Sippa, sippa, sippa, sippa, lightning crash;
Drummer 'pon him drum, him jus' a play mish-mash. 
Drummer 'pon him drum, him jus' a play mish-mash. 
Keyboards in the middle jus'a jump and twiddle. 
Keyboards in the middle jus'a jump and twiddle.
Rhythm over here an' me seh rhythm over there,
Don't stop and stare because the rhythm gone clear. 

Dub freak, dub freak, in a dub freak style 
Dub freak, dub freak, still a running wild. 
Him start from the bottom 'til him reach up the top 
Him keep on rocking and him never stop. 
Wow and flutter, music jus' 
a run like butter. 
a run like butter.

Dub a slip an' slide 
Dub a slip an' slide 
Dub a slip an' slide, 
He can't find nowhere to hide.
