Lyrics

[Verse 1] They want a new King They would do anything They want a new King They will do anything Well they don't like me way How ah sticking out for money If ah don't get pay I ain't singing for nobody They decide to clip me wing And put ah obstacle there as King [Chorus] A man with no originality No stage personality They trying to make me look small All he have is a deep croon But he won't change the tune at all This song, that song, same melody No variety If you don't believe me You could ask anybody If it ain't robbery with V [Verse 2] Hiding the judges name Ah fus they feeling shame They feel they spiting me But they too blind to see I am the only man Does fight for Calypsonian Right here in this island Getting no appreciation Instead of helping me up They fighting for progress to stop [Chorus] They put up a man with no originality No stage personality They trying to make me look small I know he have a deep croon But when he go change that tune? This song, that song, same melody No variety Well if you don't believe me You could ask anybody If it ain't robbery with V [Verse 3] Now try and remember I have nothing against Dougla We all went up to sing And all of we hope was to win It is the committee That making it they duty Forgetting ability Extending sympathy But is the one thing they learn They give him the crown But I had the throne [Chorus] He ain't had no stage personality No originality They can't make me look small All he have is a deep croon But he won't change the tune at all This song, that song, same melody No variety Well if you don't believe me You could ask anybody If it ain't robbery with V [Verse 4] They say I'm not a sport Call me names of every sort But I want them to know My whole life is calypso I take it seriously I ain't care who say ah silly It's a job to me No one should disagree All I am begging them to do Is give credit where credit is due [Chorus] Don't put no man with no originality No stage personality Don't try to make me look small Because all he have is a deep croon Tell me when he go change the tune This song, that song, same melody No variety Well if you don't believe me You could ask anybody If it ain't robbery with V
