Chelem - Stop Imitate Lyrics

This is a special dedication a special dedication, oh Lord to all imitator

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it

Mi lie down in mi room one Saturday night
I was humming a Soul song, it was a nice one too
Done by Kenny Rogers and Gladys Knight
Mi Granny she come, a where she come from?
Start to make whole heap of noise almost the whole night
"Ugly boy, hear mi say fi stop imitate
Big belly boy, hear mi say fi write your own song
Fat boy, hear mi say fi stop imitate
Ugly boy, hear mi say fi write your own song"
She say fi

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it

We down in Jamaica have a special thing
We always want to tell it to all the nations
About wi culture or wi beautiful girls
Come, Massawa, come tell it to the world
Stop from go the wrong way, this is the right way

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it

She no want no foreign artist come laugh after we,
No want no foreign artist to come take me to no court

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it

'Cause if them come with football them can't play like we
Come with cricket, them can't play like we
If a run, them a run, them can't run like we
Stone them a fling, them can't fling like we
How them, them boy fi come sing like we?
She say fi

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it

Mi lie down in mi room one Saturday night
I was humming a Soul song, it was a nice one too
It was done by Kenny Rogers and Gladys Knight
Mi Granny she come, a where she come from?
Start to make whole heap of noise almost the whole night
"Ugly boy, hear mi say fi stop imitate
Big belly boy, hear mi say fi write your own song
Fat boy, hear mi say fi stop imitate
Ugly boy, hear mi say fi write your own song"
She say fi

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it

Well if mi Granny wrong, tell me say she wrong
If mi Granny right, come let us sing this song
She say fi

Stop imitate and gwan go originate
Stop imitate and gwan go originate
'Cause every new sound come, we imitate it
Every new sound come, we imitate it
