lyrics

We don't want to go to war
we just want dance
we don't want to go to war noooo
we love dancing

future society won't pay mind to me
why should I care? are we chasing red gold?
Or should we let the dancing take hold; just keep vibing

Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone (leave the war alone)
Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone (leave the war alone)

Backbite, dirty looks; a bare a dat dem deh pon
inna di club fi dance, but yet they’re bringing out their weapons.
Searching for blood, but we just want fi spread di love;
and make some music, rub a dub, but yet di bodies' pilling up.

Money and power, war economy by the hour,
stacking up the lively hoods a top the Babylon tower.
We nuh want no more a dat, an it's time fi it stop.

Now let me hear you say Woah (Woah)
Yeah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah).
Woah (Woah)
Yeah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah), woah (yeah).

See a likkle yout just a chill pun di corner, officer pull up and say boy hand over di ganja.
Di boy start run, police shot him down; now the world want answer fi di life wen get done.
Mek mi tell you how mi see it, mi know she yuh cyaan risk yuh life fi tek down di thief;
yuh cyaan buss a shot in a head fi likkle weed; yuh cyaan use your powers fi decimate the peeps;
because mi see yuh stand up real tall, although the shield’s real small; yuh haffi tek care of di all;
save every life it matters, none too small of us, black, white, all of us; answer the call of us; protect us all

Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone (leave the war alone)
Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone (leave the war alone)
Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone (leave the war alone)
Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone
Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone (leave the war alone)
Woah Ohh Ohh Come and Rub A Dub and leave the war alone
