Don't Push Lyrics
Stolen from an African land
Chased out with a knife
With a face like Bob Marley
And a mouth like a motorbike
Oh well the bars are always open
And the time is always right
And if God's good word goes unspoken
The music goes all night
And it goes
If i was bob marley id say could you be loved
and if i was half pint id ball lord up above
and if i was mike tyson id look for a fight
and if i was a boomtown rat id be staying up all night
if i was the king of rock id get stupid dumb
and if rhymes were valiums id be comfortably numb
If i had a shotgun you know what I'd do
I'd point that shit straight at the sky
And shoot heaven on down for you
Because the bars are always open
And the time is always right
And if God's good word goes unspoken
The music goes all night
It goes
I want a lover but i cant find the time
i want a reason but i cant find the rhyme
i want to start some static but i cant afford
to lay on the ground l fall off my skateboard
nowadays as clear as you please get strapped
with proptection or strapped with disease
Laughter it's free
Anytime just call me

when your down with sublime you get
funky fresh lyrics mmm you get nothing
stolen from an Africa land i was chased out of the bar
i saw my best friend tonight so dont push me to far
Im gonna run come down with the new lyrics get hip
get hip dont slip you knuckle heads racism is schisim
on a serious tip if you dont believe me i gwon bust your lip
Higher the mountain, it hard to climb
Rougher the rhythm, then it must be Sublime
Listen Yellow Lover, yeah dem right on time
We got Cricket with the quickness and the bassline
Go and raid the sound, an' tell the people the news, oh, hey
Tell them reggae music is on the loose
Here I am, like a raging storm with a brand new style and a unique fashion (I am from the place where the sun keeps shinin', shinin')
And good, good vibes that keep on playin', playin'
Dem a fire one shot for peace equality
Come, come, dem a come with a rougher stylee
Come, come, dey no care about your reggae stylee
Come, come, if ya come with your reggae stylee
Dem a fire one shot, pump-pump, lick-a-shot
Dem a fire two shots, pump-pump, lick-a-shot
Dem a fire three shots, pump-pump, lick-a-shot
Dem a hear about me rock with me armor
Do a launch, then attack me with they armor
When they start counter-react me with they armor
Fear who are launch, dem attack me wit they armor
Me no start counter-reactin' dem bigger
Hear me copy, tell you about this reggae stylee
Wait, hold up...
People wan come up and they wan tell me
smokin crack cocaine better than sensi
your pumpin that shit till were sick of it
tweaking ever weekend and we just cant take it ohhh
We dont want plastic, BO!
Chased out with a knife

this is my favorite sublime song. the lyrics are frigging amazing!I love " and if i were bob marley I'd say could u be loved"and the" if i had a shotgun you know what I'd do I'd point that shit straight at the sky and shoot heaven on down for you" I've got to stop, or I'm jsut gonna write out the whole song down here too. I am passioantely in love with this song and Sublime.
Now a days is clear as you please get strap with protection or struck with disease
^does anyone else find that sexual? protection being condums and disease being std's?
get hit get hip don't slip you knuckle heads racism is scism on a serious tip
definitely lifted right from "Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun" by the Beastie Boys.
well obviously this song is fuckin rad, sublime never lets me down. but the song has a lot of different meanings, the usual themes of drugs, racism and all that good stuff apply, but here are some of my personal observations
Stolen from an Africa land chased out with a knife with a face like Bob Marley
and if rhymes were valiums I'd be comfortably numb
but if I had a shotgun you know what I'd do I'd point that shit straight at the sky and shoot heaven on down for you -just some great fuckin lyrics
Now a days is clear as you please get strap with protection or struck with disease

Holy shiiit!!! Yeah this song is phucking unbelievable!
hell yeah man.. this song makes me wanna just get drunk.. its a phuckin awesome song, makes ya just wanna go get crazy =)
sorry I can spell the word passionately, I just cannot type.
This is my all time favorite sublime song of all time. You can get better then this, its beautiful.
There are no words to express how amazing Sublime is/was. They're so loose with everything, it just makes everyday seem like a cool summer day when all your doing is partying, drinking, and having a great time. Bradley Nowells (RIP) is my own personal God. I love this band...
