W´en mi jus´ come to landan toun

Mi use to work pan di andahgroun

But workin´ pan di andahgroun

Y´u don´t get fi know your way around

Inglan is a bitch

Dere´s no runnin´ whey fram it

Mi get a lickle jab in a bih ´otell

An´ awftah a while mi woz doin´ quite well

Dem staat mi aaf as a dish-washah

But w´en mi tek a stack mi noh tun clack-watchah

Fus dem rab it wid dem big tax rackit

Y´u haffi struggle fi mek en´s meet

An´ w´en y´u goh a y´u bed y´u jus´ can´t sleep
