Max Romeo - Tan and See [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

A long time I man did a-wonder yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), long, long time ago

The more you look is the less you see, oh yea
The less you look is the more you see
(A do you hear me when I say?)
The more you look is the less you see, oh yea
The less you look is the more you see, oh yea

I steal it, keep it, a-why stop?
So nobody beat up you got
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out

No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance
(Do you hear me when I say?)
Oh yea, oh yea
Lalala
Alright

Don't say you have never been told, oh yea
Cause it was written by great man of old
(Do you hear me what I say?)
The half has never yet been told, oh yea
Jah Jah is in full control

Listen!
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out

No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance

A long time I man did a-wonder yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), oh yea

A long time I man did a-wonder yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), oh yea

When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out

No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance

The more you look is the less you see, oh yea
The less you look is the more you see
(A do you hear me when I say?)
The more you look is the less you see, oh yea
The less you look is the more you see, oh yea

A long time I man did a-wonder yeah
(A long time), long, long time ago
A long time I man did a-tell you say
(A long time), long, long time ago

When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out
When your hand in the lion mouth
Me said me take time pull he out

No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance
No need to jump and prance;
Danang see no spoil no dance
