Lyrics of Buju Banton’s
Boom Bye Bye
[Jamaican patois, with standard English translation and
explanation]
Boom Bye Bye
Boom [as in gun sound]
goodbye, goodbye
[as in we won’t
be seeing you again, you’re dead]
Inna batty bwoy
head
In a queer’s
head
Rude bwoy no promote no nasty
man
Rude boys don’t promote no queer
men
Dem haffi dead
They have to die
Send fi di
matic an
Send for the automatic [gun]
and
Di Uzi instead
The Uzi instead
Shoot dem no come
if we shot dem
Shoot them, don’t come if we shoot
them
[as in don’t come to help them]
Guy come
near we
If a man comes near
me
Then his skin must
peel
Then his skin must peel
[as in pour acid over
him]
Burn him up bad like an old tyre
wheel
Burn him up badly, like you would
burn an old tyre wheel
