Yellowman - Eventide Fire lyrics

Why do the wicked man a pressure
The poor man - Oh lord
Why do the wicked man a pressure
The poor man - Ya know?

Eventide what a fire eventide what a fire
Eventide fire it a murder
Me couldn't stand the pressure
Lord me haffi jump and hollar

The fire start burn from quarter to one Fire
Brigade never come til twenty passed one
Thank God fi de fire station - Say
Jah Jah bless all the fire man

Eventide is burning down, burning down
Burning down eventide is burning down
Mi couldn't stand the pressure

I no bag-a-wire i no mada-mushi
I no bag-a-wire catch poor house a fire
You a musta mek you bun down poor house
You a musta mek you bun down poor house

Cause Eventide fire what a fire
Say Eventide fire it a murder
Me couldn't stand the pressure, Lo

Eventide is burning down, burning down
Burning down eventide home is burning down
Mi couldn't stand the pressure

De big S-bwoy pon de compound
Dem burn it down straight down to the ground
One hundred and fifety three lost
Their life - if
You think say a joke look inna mi eye
Caw when them die me say the whole world cry
All who still alive pray to Jesus
Christ and gwaan a church
Oh Lord, gwaan a church, cause why

Eventide what a fire eventide what a fire
Some of dem sick them couldn't move quick
Some of dem blind them never have no time
Some of them dumb but the whole of dem bun

Eventide fire what a fire
Say Eventide fire it a murder
Me couldn't stand the pressure
Lord mi haffi jump and hollar, ya know?

Cah Eventide home is burning
Down, burning down, burning down
Eventide home is burning down
Mi couldn't stand the pressure

Cause, I no bag-a-wire i no I no mada-mushi
I no bag-a-wire catch poor house a fire
You a musta mek you bun down poor house
