I tried everything to get through to you

I sang songs I wrote you poems too

What do I? What I gotta do?

Is it something that I never knew?

You said that you need a man

One who’ll give you a helping hand

You said you’re looking for someone to marry

The weight of loneliness could be carried

You said it don’t make a difference who he is

As long as he could share a lot of lovliness,   but

            I tried and I pleaded

            Still I haven’t succeeded

            I did my best to get through to ya’

            Do I have to sing songs from Agigeedonduya Wooh!

 

            (Musical Interlude)

 

Agigeedonduya is a place I know not where!

No one knows what they’ll find there!

But do I have to take a trip to that place

And look around for days upon days

Until I find a song that they sing there

And bring it back to you way back here

 

Sing it from the heart with expression

Then I’ll break down all your walls

Well I don’t think I’ll find those songs

So you’ll just have to hear when love calls

 

I’m gonna keep on doing what I can do

Until I get shoved or pull through

But I could never go as too far

Just to find songs from Agigeedonduya,      oh wooh!

            I tried and I pleaded

            Still I haven’t succeeded

            I did my best to get through to ya’

            Do I have to sing songs from Agigeedonduya Wooh!

Oh       I tried and I pleaded

            Still I haven’t succeeded

            I did my best to get through to ya’

            Do I have to sing songs from Agigeedonduya Wooh!

 

I love you but I can’t sing songs from Agigeedonduya!

People ar tell me wen me dey pon de stage

Jump and ar dance like me in ar rampage

They tell me boy you’re a pipsqueak performer

You don’t even do de tings like de others

Pull off yuh shirt pull down yuh jockstrap

Turn around and put your bottom cock

Dem say pull some gyul from de crowd

And you afi feel her touch her all about

Pull down yuh pants hear de woman scream

Boy you afi come up wit some scheme

But me put dem in dey place say listen to me

I am de one call de L.O.G

And me love to do good things you see

Me nah get on dutty, nah get on nasty

Strickly straight performance ar come form me

And dat is how it always gonna be

 

{Me say no rudeness, no rudeness (No rudeness)}

{No no no no no no no no no rudeness                } 7 x

 

No slackness, no rudeness

No no no me no want this

And me nah cuss, no use obscenity

Me wah old and young listen attentively

In my songs when I conjure de lines

Me nah use cuss to get effect pon de rhyme

Me afi keep mi performance clean

Me tell ignoble people nah fi intervene

Me nah fi take advice to do foolishness

Me have me head on so me won’t fall prey to this

I don’t care what other performers do on stage

Me afi do my performance my own way

 

{Me say no rudeness, no rudeness (No rudeness)}

{No no no no no no no no no rudeness                } repeat with ad lib

Here I go out again yeah yeah

Trying to find some peace of mind

Hoping I can find a friend yeah yeah

And find a place I could belong,  A place that’s

            Anywhere which is somewhere

            That could be nowhere maybe

            As long as I find a home

            Yeah as long as I find a home

 

I’m searching, just hunting high and low wooh wooh

I hope I’m not searching for ever

There are certain things I don’t want to know wooh wooh

I need to find mu chosen calling, It could be

            Anywhere which is somewhere

            That could be nowhere maybe

            As long as I find a home

            Yeah as long as I find a home

 

            Music

 

It don’t have to take me every where

As long as I could be somewhere

That somewhere well it could be anywhere

It may even turn out to be nowhere

Wherever it is just put me there

To tell the truth I don’t really care

As long as I can find myself somehow, wooh

 

            Music

 

Well I guess I got to smile owh owh

And get myself on my way

Say all of my goodbyes owh owh

And see where this may take me, It might take me

            Anywhere which is somewhere

            That could be nowhere maybe

            As long as I find a home

            Yeah as long as I find a home

I got to be anywhere which is somewhere that could be nowhere

But it doesn’t make a difference as long as I find myself there

I hope that journey don’t break me down

Hope it brings me right back around wooh wooh

Right back around to you and give me peace!

(Fast Acapella)

You saw me crying by the river Yeah Yeah Yeah

And saw me crying in the church

This man that you married Oh Oh

I hope he has a heart of worth!

Well I just came back to see you

Courtesy say I got to wish you best of luck

So now I’m going back to the river

To cry and cry until I’m stopped!

 

(Slower Acapella)

Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

So now I’m walking down to the river

And I’m talking all to my self Wooh Wooh

And now I’m sitting on my favourite stone

While I cry these rhythmless tears

And my vision is getting so cloudy

As I recall all of my lonely years

And I can see I’m going back to them

As I cry these rhythmless tears

 

(Sa sa sa sa sa sa did did dum) 5 x

Wooh wooh wooh wooh wooh woooohhhhhh

 

My tears are falling down down down

Without a beat , without a rhythm

As the sad tune of my life goes on

I’ll love her for a million years

But none of those will be spent with her

So I guiess I’ll be crying rhythmless tears

Until probably I meet another wooh wooh

Throughout the saga of these lonely affairs

I’d be yes I’d be crying rhythmless tears

Wooh wooh wooh sa sa sa did did dum wooh oh

Yeah Yeah Yeah Rhythmless Tears

Sa sa sa Rhythmless Tears!
