Stiff-necked fools, you think you are cool
To deny me for simplicity
Deuteronomy 9:13;
Psalm 75:4-5

Yes, you have gone for so long
With your love for vanity now
Yes, you have got the wrong interpretation
Mixed up with vain imagination
Romans 1:21


So take Jah Sun, and Jah Moon
And Jah Rain, and Jah Stars
And forever, yes, erase your fantasy, yea-eah!

The lips of the righteous teach many
But fools die for want of wisdom
Proverbs 10:21

The rich man's wealth is in his city
Proverbs 10:15;
Prov. 18:11

The righteous' wealth is in his Holy Place
Psalm 112:1-3


So take Jah Sun, and Jah Moon
And Jah Rain, and Jah Stars
And forever, yes, erase your fantasy, yeah!
Destruction of the poor is in their poverty
Proverbs 10:15

Destruction of the soul is vanity, yeah!
Proverbs 18:7


So stiff-necked fools, you think you are cool
To deny me for simplicity, yea-ea-eah!
Yes, you have gone - gone for so long
With your love for vanity now

But I don't wanna rule ya!
I don't wanna fool ya!
I don't wanna school ya:
Things you - you might never know about!

Yes, you have got the wrong interpretation
Mixed up with vain - vain imagination:
Stiff-necked fools, you think you are cool
To deny me for, o-ooh, simplicity
