Peeni Walli lyrics

Riding on my bicycle
got knocked down by a motorcycle
in front of a crowd of people
luckily, I was Jah Jah disciple

/: I lay on the ground I was so injured
So unconscious, did not know what to do :/

Yeah, man!
When the bike really hit me
I see stars and peeni walli
beddameng! - pain all over me
Me tink me get shocked by electricity
beddameng!

/: I lay on the ground I was so injured
So unconscious, did not know what to do :/

Yeah, man!
Me say at the public hospital
Crowd gather around like it was a funeral, 'ey!
Some say it accidental
or the lang youth ha look 'pon a fat gal
(2nd time: How's a tall youth ha stare 'pon a fat gal)

(repeat all)


NOTE: A "peeni-walli" is a type of blue beetle from Jamaica -
a kind of firefly.
Christopher A. Edmonds [..] used to tease some kids at school about how
"when them come a town dem feel say streetlamp mussa peenie-wallie
in a bottle" :-)
(they thought a streetlamp was a firefly in a bottle, as I-man
raggamuffin understand it)

Last two lines: "Some say it accidental, or the lang youth 'a look 'pon
a fat gal" Means something like: " He fell off his bike, either by accident,
or because he was looking after a fat girl (and didn't look where he was
going
