Di Chinese dem mek plastic everytin,
from a plastic anchor to a plastic pin,
plastic rice, Yes plastic rice can you imagine ,
plastic egg a wonder how dat taste without the chickin,
plastic cabage, plasic fish without the fin,
dem kill dog and donkey seh a muuttin ,
but di plastic ting deadly cause it cancer giving,
dem Chinese a wicked oh what a sin,
all the one name mr chin,
nuuff people seh dem like him cookin,
mi warn dem bout the plastic thing.
but dem seh Mr. chin not faking,
cause when him cook him a di real thing,
a month afta everybody start look slim,
too much plastic in dem system,
some a dem a walk and a walk wid a lim,
hair a drop out dem nuh need fi trim,
mi did warn dem bout the plastic thing,
tell dem fi mek we do wi own farming,
plant wi own rice and stop the importing,
cause everthing we plant ago genuine,
all a di people onu listen to mi teaching,
Cause this situation is a serious thing.
