[Woman] Back on the island When somebody dies and that body loses soul That soul go flying up to Heaven Or digging down to the bad place There be good duppies and there be bad duppies And them duppies, hm, they be a spirit Who has no place to go They can't go up and they can't go down Some of them looked so bad Until one little boy looked at one in the mirror And that made the duppy mean and he frightened little boys And he turned to a pillar of salt And all the little animals lick him away until he was nothing [Boy 1] Wow [Boy 2] There ain't no such thing as ghosts Besides, uh, I never heard of “duppy” before [Woman] There's lots of things little boys ain't heard of before That's why they little boys But bad little boys the duppies like best And they be getting another place ready for the bad kids to become duppies too So if I were you, I'd be saying me prayers And doing what the elders tell me to do Cause the bad duppies are bad moves, bad boys [Sample] I feel like greatness lives on the edge of destruction
