Be com`a them funeral  
Them claim say(2x)  
Them are the general

What a big disgrace  
The way you rob up the place  
Rob everthing you can find  
Yes you did  
and you`ll even rob from the blind  

YOU MUST SEE WANT I FE  
COM`A COM`A FUNERAL  
AND I NO GO  
NO ONE BURIAL  
YET YOU WANT I  
COM`A COM`A FUNERAL  
MAKE YOUR FRIEND COME CLAIM SAY,   
CLAIM SAY YOU ARE THE GENERAL  

NOW WE KNOW THE TRUTH  
YES WE DO  
FIND YOU  
WEARING THE BOOT  
OF TAKING PEOPLE`S BUSINESS ON YOUR HEAD,YEAH  
SO MIGHT AS WELL YOU BE DEAD  

(Chorus)  

LET THE DEAD BURY THE DEAD NOW  
AND WHO IS TO BE FED, BE FED  
I AIN`T GOT NO TIME TO WASTE ON YOU, NO,NO  
I`M A LIVIN MAN, I GOT WORK TO DO  
RIGHT NOW  

THIS MAN AND THAT MAN  
YES THEY ARE THE SAME MAN  
YOU TAUGHT US THIS JUST AS WELL  
THAT THE RICH MAN HEAVEN IS THE POOR MAN`S HELL  
YOU MUST SEE WANT I FE COM`A COM`A FUNERAL  
NATTY NO GO NO ONE BURIAL  
YET YOU WANT I  
COM`A COM`A BURIAL  
MAKE YOUR FRIEND COME CLAIM SAY  
YOU ARE THE GENERAL
