Текст песни: The Fruit Man + перевод

The fruit man sold the guava to the black man

The black man peeled the skin with the bare hand

A juice man took a stand with the fruit man

And they cooked up the fish brought in fresh from the ocean

The fish man sold an axe to the boat man

A chinaman caused a scene with the black man

Accused him of selling fish that was frozen

The black man yelled at the chinaman

«It is not broken, it is not frozen

The fish it was just caught in the ocean

I do not steal, don’t breathe another sound

Or I’ll take back that fish and return it to the ocean.»

The fruit man consoled the black man

The boatman explained to the chinaman

And it was dark, really dark, with the sun down

And the fish they swam, they swam in the ocean
