Lyrics

Bruk boss
At times, James Brown has said it and he keeps on saying it
Dem a talk bout boss but have you paid the cost?
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but dem a no di boss
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but them don’t know the boss
Dem a talk like boss them a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
What mek dem a hurry come up so?
Wha mek dem a push up push up so?
Wha mek dem a bluff up bluff up so?
Wha mek dem a interrupt so?
See dem up so
See dem down so
How dem a ball out how dem bruk so
Dem get a twopence higher than a dub so
Bad mind a tun dem fool
Look what them stuck to
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but dem a no di boss
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but them don’t know the boss
Dem a talk like boss them a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
 
Bruk boss
Bruk so
Bruk boss
Bruk so
Dem people dem sneaky sneaky dem
Dem people dem sleazy sleazy when
Dem people dem a cheeky cheesy when
Life coulda been so damn easy when
Mussa duppy dem a keep and eat wid dem
All dem a deal wid grief and deviance
Pure bad mind and big ole grievance
Man a fool cos its not convenient
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but dem a no di boss
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but them don’t know the boss
Dem a talk like boss them a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
 
Run them when u see them
Them people them is heathen
Their currency is grievance
And petty minded vengeance
It’s not for my attendance
And we rarely contend them
Them people we can’t pen them
It's best that we suspend them
It’s not for our agenda
They’re poor cause they befriend us
Them a front like say they are big spenders
But they are just pretenders
And they are there pretending
They’re always there depending
They’re cuffing shall be pending ohhhhh
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but dem a no di boss
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
Dem a talk like boss dem a walk like boss but them don’t know the boss
Dem a talk like boss them a walk like boss but they nah pay the cost
 
Bruk boss
Bruk boss
Bruk so
Bruk boss
Bruk boss
Bruk so
