DAT& More - Firemon - 02-20-2018
An old comedy tune "DAT."
Stephen
The funniest reggae song ever ever written.
Pluto Shervington had such a great sense of humour and it really comes out in this tune.

Ozzy works out his grocery bill and discovers he can only afford pork, which is against his religion, after he buys his weed, so he tries to hide it, that's pretty much what it's about i do believe.

It makes the song that much more hilarious to understand Ozzy was trying to hide the pork from his brethren Rasta Jeremiah, who wanted to help him eat up a pound of dat ting der, lol.
Rasta Ozzy from up de hill
Decide fi check 'pon 'im grocery bill
An' when him add up de t'ings him need
De dunny done wha' him save fi buy likkle weed
Him han 'pon him jaw, lord. Red him eye an' just meditate
The time is so hard lord, I man now t'ink 'bout emigrate
I mek up me mind lord I might as well go 'gainst I man faith
So a forward a market, I sight the butcher bwoy by de gate
Chorus
( You wan' goat? ) No I might-a kill I queen
( Try de beef nuh? ) I no check fi no grass weh green
( Wha' bout fowl? ) What'cha know is time fi a change
( Mere fish ? ) Got children out a dat range
( How 'bout de steak? ) What'cha know, me no sight me rate
( Try tripe? ) Bu'n me belly when I pull me pipe
( What about de pork then? )
Hush your mouth man, me brethren hear
Sell I a pound of dat t'ing there
So when the butcher pull up a stool
Begin fi question Ozzy how him so fool
What kind a sump'in cook in a pot
From him born him never did hear 'bout dat
Well what'cha know master, give I time mek'a try explain
It's just like a flim show
Fi protect the humble we change the name
I would have feel so cute
Fi come in and ask we some 'Arnold fat'
I and I feel safer if we change the subject and call it Dat
( Rpt Chorus ) Ozzy pay off de butcher bill Tek de parcel and trod up the hill Like a spite who do you t'ink him meet? Rasta Jeremiah from down the street Guidance me brethren Is wha' you have in a dat dere bag? Him kinda get frighten, and begin fi hide it beneat' him rag That man no fear I lord Mek we go up me yard and take a sat Meanwhile light a fire I will help you eat off de pound a dat ( Rpt Chorus ) Your Welcome
have a good day RE: DAT - Oldtimer2 - 02-21-2018
That's hilarous !!!! I'd love to walk into a grocery store and talk like that ....hehehe
RE: DAT - CardBoardBox - 02-21-2018
hilarous? Agreed.
I've been to the meat counter in HiLo; Prices make me run away so fast my shadow couldn't catch me.
What didn't surprise me is how the Pastor invited himself. I suppose the irony is Ozzy got busted.
