Lyrics
Intro
Bless dis food Oh Jah!
Purify it for di nourishment of I&I soul.
Cleanse di pot from all corruption and vanity.
So dat when we eat, we partake in di strength of di Earth.
Rastafari!
Verse 1
Nuff bwoy running dung di vanity, dem eye broad and craven
Want di whole world inna dem pocket before dem reach Zion
Dem belly full a wind, dem swallowing di plastic
Life fake like di smile pon a politician tactic
Yuh see, money is a seasoning, it a nuh di main dish
Yuh cyaan buy di river flow, yuh cyaan buy di fish
Dem trading in di Callaloo fi eat di processed meat
And wonder why di bitterness a poison up di street
Dem lickky-lickky fi di coin, make dem soul get malnourished
While di Rasta man plant seed and watch di garden flourish
Dem gorge pon di greed till dem belly waan buss
But naked yuh come... and return to di dust!
Chorus 1
Dash a likkle Thyme... Cause good things take Time
Drop a Scotch Bonnet... Put yuh heart pon it
Pour di Coconut Milk... Make di love smooth like silk
Stir up di Dutch Pot... Give thanks fi what we got
Dash a likkle Thyme... Cause good things take Time
Drop a Scotch Bonnet... Put yuh heart pon it
Pour di Coconut Milk... Make di love smooth like silk
Stir up di Dutch Pot... Give thanks fi what we got
Verse 2
Look pon di Pear Avocado how it slice pon di side
Soft and green, natural butter, nothing fi hide
Di money is a tool like di machete inna hand
But it cyaan plant di seed if yuh nuh love di land!
Some man a drink Bag Juice, tink say a wine
But true love is Sorrel, aged pon di vine!
Spicy like di Pimento, hot to di touch
But without di spice, life nuh matter too much!
Yuh cyaan steam fish inna microwave heat
A rubber and plastic yuh trying to eat!
Gimme di Yellow Yam, Banana and di Fig
Nuh want no leftovers from Babylon Pig!
Chorus 2
Dash a likkle Thyme... Cause good things take Time
Drop a Scotch Bonnet... Put yuh heart pon it
Pour di Coconut Milk... Make di love smooth like silk
Stir up di Dutch Pot... Give thanks fi what we got
Dash a likkle Thyme... Cause good things take Time
Drop a Scotch Bonnet... Put yuh heart pon it
Pour di Coconut Milk... Make di love smooth like silk
Stir up di Dutch Pot... Give thanks fi what we got
Outro
