Now in 1986, I and I Tipper,
I must go upon a journey, you know.
So let's sing with that.
So let's sing a dedicated to everybody
in every single country.
Sing, hey.
♪ Mama said is it really happening to me ♪
♪ I'm taking a plane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ Jamaica me said is it really happening to me ♪
♪ I'm taking a plane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ We're just at the date if I left the country ♪
♪ A few weeks ago in the month of February ♪
♪ A convenient destination was the place called Paris ♪
♪ I reach a gateway airport at 4.30 ♪
♪ I jump on a plane across the clear blue sea ♪
♪ I land over front of people very friendly ♪
♪ The first thing they say,
did you enjoy your journey?

♪ Kissed both side of my cheek which to me was funny ♪
♪ I licked a lump of that with chunky night caviar ♪
♪ The hotel was paid, it was cash and ready ♪
♪ You don't know what I mean,
well I mean fancy ♪
♪ With silk curtains and leather settee ♪
♪ The year upon the wine was 1850 ♪
♪ But this is something that was surprising to me ♪
♪ Over France wine cheaper than tea or coffee ♪
♪ Well if you're greedy then you better worry ♪
♪ Cause a tree cost me,
cost enough enough money ♪
♪ So you see, guys it's really happening to me ♪
♪ I'm taking the airplane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ Jamaican me say, is it really happening to me?

♪ I'm taking the airplane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ What's a good people may not know the story ♪
♪ When I was in France I was very busy ♪
♪ I left my hotel at 6.30,
they go to a radio show ♪
♪ And me say,
don't be so fussy,
I talk to the man at the bar,
Murdy ♪
♪ At the office my interpreter to chat to him for me ♪
♪ And when them done chatting me start MC ♪
♪ Them say,
Tiffa,
Iron Man,
you're full of energy ♪
♪ Say, and you have a nice personality ♪
♪ But this is something which shocked Colonel and me ♪
♪ The man himself a big love, pass it for Kali ♪
♪ Impossible Colonel, Colonel pass it to me ♪
♪ We look on each other, God is good already ♪
♪ Got in a angle and we used to the same seat ♪
♪ So you see, that is it really happening to me?

♪ I'm taking the airplane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ Jamaican me say, is it really happening to me?

♪ I'm taking the airplane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ When I left the radio show I was very sleepy ♪
♪ I went back to the hotel and phone me mommy ♪
♪ She said, how are you son?
I said, I'm feeling iry ♪
♪ And when we done, chat sleep immediately ♪
♪ Cause I know the next day I was on TV ♪
♪ But when I left France I was very happy ♪
♪ Cause there's no town to me like London City ♪
♪ Cause that is the home of the Saxon Posse ♪
♪ The whole of we together live like a family ♪
♪ And anything we have we share it out fairly ♪
♪ We live in love and unity ♪
♪ That's why we are the best sounding in the country ♪
♪ So you'll see,
that isn't really happening to me ♪
♪ I'm taking the airplane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ Jamal Khomeini said,
is it really happening to me?

♪ I'm taking the airplane like it's a taxi ♪
♪ So you'll see...
