Jokerman - Instrumental Dub by Doctor Dread

Jokerman

Jokerman, while ya deal with?

Standing on the waters, casting your bread

While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing (glowing)

Freedom just around the corner from you

Jokerman

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Jokerman

One of the women must sit in the shack and soak up

The bus'll catch up with him

Jokerman

You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah

But what do you care?

You're a king among this town

You're a stranger at home

Bird fly high by the light of the moon

Jokerman

And the sea are your only teachers

Michelangelo himself could've carved out your features

Tragic, tragic, with a small dog at your feet

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Jokerman

Nightsticks and water cannons, tear gas, and padlocks

Molotov cocktails and rocks can't drown out your servin'

Spun in your web

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Jokerman

He'll put a priest into pimps and make old men buy

Take a woman and cut up her shoulder wrap

And turn her into a harlot

Oh, jokerman

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune

Bird fly high by the light of the moon

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Jokerman
