Small Axe

Why boasteth thyself Oh, evil men Playing smart And not being clever? Oh no I said, you're working iniquity To achieve vanity, yeah (if a-so a-so) But the goodness of Jah, Jah I-dureth forever If you are the big tree We are the small axe Sharpened to cut you down (well sharp) Ready to cut you down These are the words Of my master, keep on tellin' me No weak heart Shall prosper, oh no they can't! And whosoever diggeth a pit, Lord Shall fall in it, shall fall in it Whosoever diggeth a pit Shall bury in it, shall bury in it If you are the big tree We are the small axe Sharpened to cut you down Ready to cut you down And whosoever diggeth a pit Shall fall in it, fall in it And whosoever diggeth a pit Shall bury in it, shall bury in it If you are the big, big tree We have a small axe Ready to cut you down (well sharp) Sharpened to cut you down If you are the big tree, let me tell you this We are the small axe Ready to cut you down (well sharp) Sharpened to cut you down If you are the big tree We are the small axe --- Small Axe - Bob Marley and The Wailers
