[English]

We ah guh mashup till it done, so come and lick it off
Off sweat a run, pipe water
Pon cah ya up, anuh crab ya a tata
Yuh walk out dem a lamb to the slaughter
Fi woman inna bungle nuh have har quarter
Dancehall guh nice, mi waan be a parta
Some a dem old, fi dem rasta
Some a dem young and nuh have nutn fi show
Rave it like paper, more than a decade we a do the innovate
And the dance a guh mash up and nobody couldnt greater
Ward 21 me a drop off the laser
Chance like razer, anuh pampers paper
Impress the gyal cause she tell me mi a teaser
I'm a pull dance now, mi nuh see Caesar
She get a chance fi go roll like the Bishop
Mashup the dance
Mashup the dance
Mashup the dance
Mashup the dance
Open up the place mek the dancer
When a fiya shot gun, fiya fi dem stop and run
Stop inna your face with the gun
Mek them know it and know why we no answer
Like a dancehall cancer
Big up every woman that salute every man sir
Go by the spot, Major Lazer and di Party Squad, 21 watch yah!
When we inna the jungle, that's the mission fi go sure fi go humble
Try walk through and try nuh stumble
Try hold your mouth and try fi be humble
Mash up the party, not supple
