Poverty’s Paradise

Naughty By Nature

Poverty's Paradise, 1995, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

You know, ever since we started in this game
We've been hungry
We've never known anythin' but poverty
And scuffin' those knees
And for all the stress and strife
We've had families and friends tell us everything's gonna be alright
And now that we surfaced
Our mission is to turn our poverty into our paradise
Ha-ha, Naughty By Nature's in the house
Settin' it off with with 19 naughty-five flavor
Introducing, "Poverty's paradise," yeah
And this is the year that we go all out
Lettin' the whole world hear our peoples cries
And bringin' to surface the years and years of all the wicked lies
And the ultimate goal is to remove
All the dirt off of the hands that feed us
And to let the evil recognize that
Nothin' will stop these independent leaders
