    Just listening to this at age 43. As an American who knows more than just E Ave, I listen in honor of the man who intro'd me to Eddy. My dad died 2 weeks ago. Today woulda been 71. Love you pops ❤️

    Love Eddy Grant, all is tunes are top notch catchy, I find it quite baffling that he hasn't sold more albums, but then I'm more of a metal head - but if I want a bit of reggae- its Eddy every time!!

    You invite me to a war party
    Me no want to go
    Everybody seem to be inviting me to - a war party
    Me no want to go
    Heard about the last one
    So thanks but-no
    Thank you
    You
    You killed off all the Indians
    And you killed off all the slaves
    But no quite
    So you killed off the remains
    You a look for me
    And I'm looking for you
    I can't believe what they say about you is true
    That you're a bad star just like Pharoah
    You killed the children just like Pharoah
    Now you send a ticket for me
    It don't have R.S.V.P.
    Oh Lord
    It's a war party
    Me no want to go...
    You've invited all our wise men many time before
    To dance around your fires and even out your scores
    And when the tolls taken of the valiant and the brave
    The only decoration is the one upon the graves
    Oh no
    You're a bad star just like Pharaoh
    You killed the children just like Pharoah
    Now you send a ticket for me
    And it don't have R.S.V.P.
    Oh Lord
    It's a war party
    Me no want to go...
    Please don't send no ticket for me
    No
    Don't send no ticket
    No
    Don't send no ticket for me
    If don't have R.S.V.P.
    Oh Lord
    It's a war party
    Me no want to go...
    Do you want to go
    Say no
    Do you want to go
    Say no
    Me no want to go right now
    Me no want to go right now
    They invite me to a war party me no want to go...

    the Pharaoh metaphor is inspired from Bible (Old Testament)!!! ... wondering if this song is forbidden in North Korea!! because this is a voice and a message from Africa through time .. and it will continue to say: " .. me don't wanna go!..." .. Eddy will always stand for a "different way but the same spirit as Bob Marley" :) .. a song that is always actual!!
