Bionic Rats - Lee "Scratch" Perry

Hey scavengers, hey scavengers

Hey vampires out there

Hey scavengers, hey scavengers

Hey vampires out there

Rats invade the corn field (corn field)

Eating up the sufferers' meal

(Sufferers' meal)

Every day they gnaw the same song

(Same song, same song)

Every day they cut another version

(Version, version)

East west north, east west south

The world is roundabout

East west north, east west south

People keep squeaking out

(Squeaking, squeaking)

Every man have his own opinion

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

Everyone want to reign dominion

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

But Jah Jah set a super trap

(Super trap, super trap)

To catch all you bionic rats

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

They must get a beating

They must get a blow

They must get wounded

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

They must get a beating

They must get a blow

They must get wounded

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

Jah-wah-wah-wah

Jah-wah-wah-wah

Jah-wah-wah-wah

If you can’t beat the man

You cannot beat the world

For Jah Jah word is like

A two edged sword (edged sword)

Singers and players will be there

(Gathering, gathering)

Heathen and vampires, beware

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

Judas and Barnabas, sons of Lucifer

(Satan, Satan)

You shall go down in the Valley of Jehoshaphat

(Bottomless pit)

For Jah Jah set a super trap

(Super trap, super trap)

To catch all you bionic rats

(Stoo stoobi doo-oo)

Judas and Barnabas, Judas and Barnabas

Sons of Lucifer (Satan, Satan)

You shall go down in the Valley of Jehoshaphat

(Bottomless pit)

For Jah Jah set a super trap

(Super trap, super trap)

To catch all you bionic rats

Jah, Jah, Jah, Jah
