Lyrics

[Verse 1] I go play meh mas as usual Because I love Carnival Well I playing mas as usual Because I love Carnival But no competition for me In San Fernando or the City They could preach Peter or Paul I won't even go Savannah to see football [Chorus] I intend to keep all meh costumes on the shelf Let them keep the prizes in Savannah for they own self Let the Queen run the show Without steelband and calypso Who want to go could go up dey But me ain't going, no way [Verse 2] Yes, what really cause the upset Is the car the Queen does get She does nothing for Carnival She only pretty and that is all! But men like me and you Saving money all year to play Ju Ju All we getting is a case of beer And talk up as "Band of the Year" [Chorus] So I intend to keep all meh costumes on the shelf Let them keep the prizes in Savannah for they own self And let the Queen run the show Without steelband and Sparrow Who want to go could go up dey But me ain't going, no way [Verse 3] They started talking nonsense About some kind of violence By right they should publish an apology Because they lying on we We looking for better condition They making false allegation Say what they want, do what they like Sparrow is one Calypsonian strike [Chorus] I intend to keep meh calypsoes on the shelf Let them keep the prize undivided between they own self And let the Queen run the show Without steelband and calypso If you want to go, you could go up dey But me ain't going, no way
