Church Heathen Lyrics

If yu tek dis too serious
Den yu really need some church

Dem feel seh true dem go a church
Dere sins don't need forgiving, forgiving
Dem really gone from bad to worse
Wid dem yah careless living, living

Mi ah boy nuh go church from how long
Rather sleep tru di mornin' an put on a slam
But mi woman she ah pressure mi fi go confession
So mi decide fi go an kill di conversation
So mi si dung right down beside Sista Pam
Who ah tell everyting 'bout di congregation
'Bout Sista Paulette an har gay husban'
An how she still ah sleep wid di minibus man
Sista Gwen seh she ah a christian
But ah las' night dem ketch har inna Stone Love session
She ah do di dutty dance to di Matterhorn song
An' ah seh she get di ting dem from Baby Cham

Dem feel seh true dem go a church
Dere sins don't need forgiving, forgiving
Dem really gone from bad to worse
Wid dem yah careless living, living

She all ah tell me 'bout di one deacon
Who a drive di big Benz
Ah weh him get money from?
Dats why nuhbody nuh waan gi no collection
See di church roof a leak
Ah wah him really deh pon
Every Sunday is a competition
Mi si nuff a dem a gwaan like dem inna name brand
All di sitten weh she wear come out ah some drum battam
Wid di camphor ball smell
Dat ah nuh new fashion
Den she proceed fi talk 'bout di man dem
Who only come ah service fi look church woman
But mi couldn't seh nutten
'Cause mi know mi ah one

Dem feel seh true dem go a church
Dere sins don't need forgiving, forgiving
Dem really gone from bad to worse
Wid dem yah careless living, living

Nex' Sunday caan miss me (Amen)
Soap opera caan sweet so (Amen)
Just light di fire sista

Nex' Sunday caan miss me (Amen)
Soap opera caan sweet so (Amen)
Just light di fire sista

Mi ah boy nuh go church from how long
Rather sleep tru di mornin' an put on a slam
But mi woman she ah pressure mi fi go confession
So mi decide fi go an kill di conversation
So mi si dung right down beside Sista Pam
Who ah tell everyting 'bout di congregation
'Bout Sista Paulette an har gay husban'
An how she still ah sleep wid di minibus man
Sista Gwen seh she ah a christian
But ah las' night dem ketch har inna Stone Love session
She ah do di dutty dance to di Matterhorn song
An' ah seh she get di ting dem from Baby Cham
Dem feel seh true dem go a church
Dere sins don't need forgiving, forgiving
Dem really gone from bad to worse
Wid dem yah careless living, living
Dem feel seh true dem go a church
Dere sins don't need forgiving, forgiving
Dem really gone from bad to worse
Wid dem yah careless living, living

Shaggy is the name of, at least, two artists.
1, Shaggy (born October 22, 1968, in Kingston, Jamaica as Orville Richard Burrell), is a Jamaican reggae artist who takes his nickname from his shaggy hair. He is especially notable for his distinctive sub-baritone voice.

His family immigrated to the United States and they settled in the neighborhood of Flatbush, Brooklyn, located in New York City, New York, USA.

In 1988, he joined the United States Marine Corps and served during Operation Desert Storm during the Persian Gulf War.

On his return from Iraq, he decided to pursue his music career and his first hit in 1993: "Oh Carolina", was a dancehall re-make of a ska hit by the Folkes Brothers. The same year, Shaggy appeared on Kenny Dope's hip hop album "The Unreleased Project". He worked together with producers such as Sting Intl., Don One (who cut his first track), Lloyd 'Spiderman' Campbell and Robert Livingston. He had further big hits, including "Boombastic" in 1995.

He then had a major comeback in 2001, featuring worldwide number-one hit singles "It Wasn't Me" and "Angel," the latter of which was built around Merrilee Rush's 1968 hit "Angel of the Morning" (which was remade in 1981 by Juice Newton). The album Hot Shot, from which those cuts came, would hit number one on the Billboard 200.

However, his 2002 release Lucky Day, and the 2005 album Clothes Drop failed to match Hot Shot's success.

Shaggy performed the theme for Showtime (film), a 2002 movie.

2, Shaggy, a swedish rock/blues rock band from the 1970's. Released one album, "Lessons for beginners" Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
