Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no â??nough
You're gonna dance to JAH music, dance
We're gonna dance to JAH music, dance

Forget your troubles and dance
Forget your sorrow and dance
Forget your sickness and dance
Forget your weakness and dance

Cost of living get so high
Rich and poor, they start a cry
Now the weak must get strong
They say, â??What a tribulationâ??

Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no â??nough

We're gonna chuck to JAH music, chuckin'
Chuckin' to JAH music, chuckin'
Cost of living get so high
Rich and poor, they start a cry

Now the weak must get strong
They say, â??Oh, what a tribulationâ??

Cost of living get so high
Rich and poor, they start a cry
Now the weak must get strong
They say, â??Oh, what a tribulationâ??

A belly full but them hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no â??nough

We're gonna chuck to JAH music, chuckin'
Chuckin' to JAH music, we're chuckin' [Repeat: x3]

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
