Myki Tuff delivers a sharp light hearted analysis about the effects of the corona virus crisis on our lives on Friendly Fire Band's first all-acoustic release.
lyrics
People are afraid, they are petrified
It have them lock up inna dem house
Dem don’[t want to go outside
All the clubs and pubs locked down
Can’t even dance to my champion sound
But I Stay strong… Ready for self isolation
Now we're under attack
Germs from outter space
So if you’re going out
Put gloves and put a mask over your face
Me all a wrap up my dreadlocks
And take my cleansing cream with me
Maintain a good personal hygiene
And stay 3 meters away from me
So I say go!
Straight out the door
Corona virus, you’re not welcome anymore
Were you the one who tried to make me lay down and die
Did you think I’d crumble, did you think I’d lay down and cry?
I will survive, I will survive
Just as long as I know how to live, I know i'll stay alive
Clean out your house good, Disinfect and sterilize,
I got my Cillit Bang, Domestos and my Bay Rum by my side.
Hope and pray the NHS don’t fall apart
Big up the doctors and nurses we keep them in our thoughts
All those hours that they’re working just to keep people alive
Respect due to all of you, my heart is full of pride
Now you see me, me she respect due
I’m not that selfish person in that supermarket queue
If you feel like pushing past vulnerable people and I see
All that anger that’s inside, you don’t want to upset me!
So I say go!
Straight out the door
Corona virus, you’re not welcome anymore
Were you the one who tried to hurt me with your lies, Did you think I’d crumble, did you think I’d lay down and cry?
Oh no not I, I will survive
As long as I know how to live I know I’ will survive
Clean out your house good , disinfect and sterilise
I got by Cillit Bang, Domestos and my Bay Rum by my side
So if just like me you have lost good friends
And you don’t know if it’s corona or government a murder them
One thing I know just make sure you do’t end up in a hospital
Me nah go mek no doctor jook me, me nah tek no vaccination
So I say go!
Straight out the door
Corona virus, you’re not welcome anymore
Clean up your house good , disinfect and sterilize
I got by Cillit Bang, Domestos and my Bay Rum by my side
Now they say that domestic abuse is on the increase,
Because of all them dirty liars and dem bedrooms cheats
Through lock down they can’t sneak out,
And their lover is all alone
So they keep texting sending messages to your mobile phone
Your partner find out, and they get vex
Dem see pure naked pictures worse they read some intimate text
But just like Shaggy, you tell them NO! it wasn’t me
Now you see how this corona is causing pure misery
So she say go! Sleep on the floor!
As far as she’s concerned you nah go get her zoom zoom anymore
She treat you good she treat you like a king and a man
And just because you couldn’t keep you little something inna your pants...
So I say go!
Straight out the door
Corona virus, you’re not welcome anymore
Were you the one who tried to make me lay down and die
Now to all the shopkeepers who a gwann too thief
What was £1.99 is £3.45 this week
Now let me send out a little warning to all of them,
I will send for all my friends thief out your things and share with them!
So I say go!
Straight out the door
Corona virus, you’re not welcome anymore
Clean up your house good , disinfect and sterilize
I got by Cillit Bang, Domestos and my Bay Rum by my side
I will survive, I will survive,
As long as I know how to live, I know I’ll stay alive
Clean up your house good , disinfect and sterilize
I got by Cillit Bang, Domestos and my Bay Rum by my side
So I say go!
