Since de legalization of marijuana, every man is rasta now on our corner

Even de biggest baldhead now pretend he and de rastaman now always friend

Even all ah dem parliamentarian now boasting to be rastafarian

From de Upper to de Lower House, look, dem rastas pack up de place tighter than wood louse

Look, now who hold de position as Minister of Information? Ah ras hold dat! Ah ras hold dat!

Who always on travel vacation yet hold de Minister of Education? Ah ras hold dat! Ah ras hold dat!

In parliament we have a rasta domination, both in government and opposition

If you see how all dem rasta pack up de place

I don’t know how so much ras hold in such tight space

Refrain

How come all dem ras, how come so much ras, how come all dem ras hold in parliament

How come all dem ras hold, how come so much ras, how come so much ras hold in government

I-man-tha Marshall . . . I-mal Pringle . . .Irie, meh brethren! Seen! Seen!  . . . Yuh ha weed? Pass de Dutchie . . .

Ah time ago de rasta couldn’t get no work, they used to treat de rastafarian like dirt

But since dey take de gal Maleika Parker and make she a government senator

From den I see all kind-a Rastafarian at de top level and all in command

Dem rastas pack-up parliament hall though de chambers is so small

Now who control de handle of de senate; holding de mantle? A ras hold dat! A ras hold dat!

Who is de man who does dominate and hold de last say in Cabinet? A ras hold dat! A ras hold dat!

In parliament we have a rasta domination, both in government and opposition

Look how all dem rasta pack-up de place

Ah don’t know how so much ras hold in such tight space

Refrain

How come all dem ras-ta, how come so much ras, how come all dem ras hold in government

How come all dem ras hold, how come so much ras, how come so much ras hold in parliament

I-rold Lovell . . .  Yes-I, meh brethren . . .Seen, seen! . . .Yeah . . . De ganja good, de ganja good! . . .I-man-tha, yuh cooking any I-tal today?

Sometimes innocent people passing by and hear shouts from parliament is,”Jah Rastafari!”

No Hindus, no Muslims, no Christians, is only rasta holding position

It look like dey does discriminate, from de cabinet to de senate

Giving control to de I-and-I, all de followers of Selassie-I

Now who hold dat position as de head of de opposition? A ras hold dat! A ras hold dat!

De top dog in de nation, who hold dat in their possession? A ras hold dat! A ras hold dat!

In parliament we have a rasta domination, both in government and opposition

Look how all dem rasta pack-up de place

Ah don’t know how all dem ras hold in such tight space

Refrain

How come all dem ras, how come so much ras, how come so much ras hold in parliament

How come all dem ras hold, How come so much ras, how come so much ras hold in government

Pass de spliff-I . . . Dadli weed good! . . .Dadli weed good! Jah! . . . I-rold . . . Seen, seen, meh brethren! . . .
