Go outta mi way do everyting right,
from the champagne chilling to the dim light,
Put on some music turn it way down low,

10 oclock mi a say it a get late an
11 oclock me a contemplate an
seh mi nah go get vex me still a wait and
nuh watch the lateness cause we a Jamaican,
12 oclock when me nuh see him me start see red,
1 oclock anger turned into panic instead
mi start wonder if them rob him put a cap inna him head
and feel guilt how me vex when the man probably dead,
so me pick up the phone and start call up mi friends,
Jump inna mi car and go circle some ends.
Come back inna di house and start bawl pon di floor when BUP me hear a key inna di door. Guess who?
