But still yet, dey go agains me.

An da donkeys know wea dea owna give um food.
But da Israel peopo, dey donno me.

Ony get cut, scar, black an blue,
An bad open kine sore all ova.
Nobody clean out da pus,
Nobody put olive oil on top fo make um come sof,
An nobody put bandage on top um.
You guys land, nobody can live dea.
Yoa big towns stay all burn up.
You see da odda peopo take away
All yoa food from yoa fields an eat um.
An peopo from odda places take um ova.
My big town dea
Jalike one shack in da middo a one grape field,
An jalike fo guard one cucumba field,
Jalike one big town wit army guys all aroun,
Get ready fo bus up da town.

But I no like da kine meetings you guys make,
Cuz dey ony bad.

An yoa odda spesho religious kine ceremonies,

21 Bummahs! You see da peopo inside da big town
