Politicians scheming
Try to bring a new tax
Populations sleeping
Got to get hip to the facts
Take a moodette out on the dance floor
Bass man put down a lick
Get involved and your problem is solved
Little thing called Dub 56

Dub Dub Dub 56
Dub Dub Dub 56
Dub Dub Dub 56
Dub Dub Dub 56

General population
Vegged out to the max
Six-pack of beer, religious career
And a TV keeps 'em relaxed
If you want to find an escape route
I tour on a regular fix
Clear out your mind
Leave the bullshit behind
Little thing called Dub 56

When you're standing on the corner
Waiting for the music to kick
Throw right down
Head into town
Take a little ride on
Dub 56

Dub Dub Dub 56
Dub Dub Dub 56
Dub Dub Dub 56
Dub Dub Dub 56

Take a little Ellington big band
Buru drum rhythm that sticks
Guitar offbeat put the groove to your feet
Throw a one drop into the mix
Take your modette out on the dance floor
Bass man throw down a lick
Clear out your mind
Leave the bullshit behind
Little thing called Dub 56

No pushin no shovin no lootin no kickin no shootin
Ina mi dance ah cos dis ah Dub 56
Me no wan no pushin no shovin no lootin no kickin no killin
Ina mi dance ah cos dis ah Dub 56.

When you're standing on the corner
Waiting for the music to kick
Throw right down
Head into town
Take a little ride on
Dub 56
