mighty sparrow - dan is the man lyrics

“captain! there’s a traitor on board!”
“examine the h+rn!”

according to the education
you get when you small
you will grow up with true ambition
and respect from one and all
but in my days in school
they teach me like a fool
the things they teach me
i should be a block+headed mule

and what they teach you?
they tell me p+ssy has finished his work long ago
and now he resting and thing
solomon gundy was born on a monday
the ass in the lion skin
winkin, blinkin and nod
sail off in a wooden sloop
the ‘gouti lose he tail and the alligator fighting
to make monkey+liver soup

and dan is the man in the van
wepsee mama!

the poems and the lessons they write
and send from england
impress me, they were trying to
cultivate comedians!
comic books made more sense
you know it is fictitious
without pretense
cutteridge wanted to keep us in ignorance!
tell me if this ain’t stupidness:
humpy+dumpty sat on a wall
humpy+dumpy did fall
goosey, goosey gander?
where shall i wander?
ding, dong, dell
p+ssy in de well!
ah r+i+k+k+i+t+i+k+k+i+ah+t+ah+v
ah rikki tikki tikki tikki tavi!

dan is the man in the van
wepsee mama! yep!

i say, cutteridge was plenty times more advanced
than them scientist
i ain’t believe that no one man could write
so much stupidness
aeroplanes didn’t come so soon
scientists used to make the grade in balloon
cutteridge make a cow
jump over the moon

and then he tell then:
tom, tom the piper’s son
thief a pig and away he run
once there was a woman who lived in a shoe
she had so many children she didn’t know what to do
d+ckory a+d+ckory dock
the mouse ran up the clock
the lion and the mouse
a woman pushing a cow
to eat grass on top of a house
and dan is the man in the van
wepsee mama!

how i happen to get some education?
my friends, me ain’t know
all they teach me is about brer rabbit
and rumpelstilskin+o
they wanted to keep me down indeed
they try they best, but didn’t succeed
you see, me head was duncee
and up to now i can’t read!

who cares about:
peter, peter was a pumpkin eater?
some little, little people tie gulliver?
when i was sick and lay a+bed
i had two pillow at my head
the goose lay the golden egg?
the spider catch a fly?
morocoy with wings flapping in the sky?
they beat me like a dog to learn that in school
if me head was bright i woulda be a d+mn fool!

with dan is the man in the van
can a pig dance a jig for a fig?
twirly and twisty were two screws
mister mike goes to school, on a bike
with dan is the man in the van
with dan is the man in the van
yeah! with dan is the man in the van!
