Why boasteth thyself, oh, evil man
Playing smart and not being clever?

To achieve vanity (if a-so a-so)

But the goodness, of Jah Jah
I-dureth for-I-ver

If you are a big tree, let me tell you that
I am the small axe
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down

These are the words of my master
Ey! No weak heart shall prosper

Shall fall in it, uh! (fall in it)
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall bury in it (bury in it)

Ey! No weak heart shall prosper
And, whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it, uh! (fall in it)
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall bury in it (bury in it)

If you are a big tree, let me tell you that

Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down

I am the small axe
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down
