Chaka Demus

A lot of people around here
Lost the whites in their eyes
I see the lust inside your heart
And now I wanna touch the sky

Think with their head, argue with their gut
Draft if you leave the door open
It might encourage customers
That I wish the bar maid shut
Look like shit, down on my luck

Two world wars and one World Cup
Screamed by the desperate divided crutch
Used to have an empire, then we grew up
Lost everything, who gives a fuck?

Money in a jukebox, rocks all night
Same shit bands, too much hype
Everyone knows, everyone sees fights
Everyone drinks in the corner, right?

Everyone knows their C blood type
Sayin' we match and we matched up to that
I love her, she loves me, too
That's why we get together

A lot of people around here
Lost the whites in their eyes
See the lust inside your heart
And now I wanna touch the sky

He's dizzy for Lizzy, I'm dizzy generally
Scapegoated by a girl befriended me
Not that I care, it's the only use to me
She bounce off walls, through doors, she tend to be

Everything I wanna be and everything less
I stress this guess at the problem we stressed
Are you ever going to have me on your lone stallion spine
Show up, pleurisy

You're leaving alone but you came together
Who made the sun turn stormy weather?
Leaving alone but you came together
Just enough liquor shoulda made to met ya

A lot of people around here
Lost the white in their eyes
See the lust inside your heart
And don't wanna touch the sky

She said, "Tonight Jay, I'm gonna teach them a ballad"
An Englishman in every coward
I was kind of impressed by the way she dressed
I've scoured this land to find a girl empowered

Asked her again why her heart turned sour
One of the ones that the boys devoured
If you're gonna learn a song, you gotta sing along
There's an Englishman in every coward

I got money in a jukebox, rocks all night
Same shit bands, too much hype
Everyone knows, everyone sees fights
Everyone drinks in the corner, right?

Everyone knows their C blood type
Sayin' we match and we matched up to that
Well, I love her, she lovin' me too
That's why we get together

A lot of people around here
Lost the white in their eyes
See the lust inside your heart
And now you wanna touch the sky

A lot of people around here
Lost the white in their eyes
See the lust inside your heart
And now I wanna touch the sky
