I am 58... I have sung this calypso over and over with Stalin via TV... Radio... But I never really took on or try to understand the lyrics..... It's powerful song and I adore him now for such a mighty song

BURN DEM By Black Stalin [intro] [Fire burning], Jah know [fire blazing], Jah know [Fire burning, fire burning] [Fire burning] Jah know [fire blazing] Jah know [Fire burning, fire burning] Hit me now! Judgement morning, I by the gate and I waiting, Because I begging the Master, gimme a work with Peter; It have some sinners coming, with them I go be dealing, Because the things that they do we, I want to fix them personally. Peter wait, Peter wait, Peter, look Cecil Rhodes by the gate [Burn he, burn he!] Peter, look the English man wey send Cecil Rhodes to Africa land [Burn he, burn he!)] Peter, take Drake, take Ralegh, but leave Victoria for me [Burn she, burn she!] Peter, I just doh care what you say, but Mussolini, he can't get away. [Burn he, burn he!] Why?... Chorus: [This is my time for burning] I burning, and I burning, and I burning, and I burning! [Peter, keep the fire blazing] Blazing, blazing, blazing, blazing! [This is Jah time for burning] I burning, and I burning, and I burning, and I burning! [Peter, keep the fire coming.] Peter you don't know, the pressure that I undergo, From these mad man and woman, I feel the full weight of their hand; They make their oppressed law, they never care 'bout the poor, Peter, these people had their day, well now is time for Stalin to play. Peter, wait, I say Peter wait! Peter, look Ian Smith by the gate [Burn he, burn he!] Peter, I don't want you to make fuss, remember I want Christopher Columbus [Burn he, burn he!)

Chorus: [This is my time for burning] [Peter, keep the fire blazing] Blazing, blazing, blazing! [This is Jah time for burning] We burning, and we burning, and we burning, and we burning! [Peter, keep the fire coming] Hit me now! Peter, don't grudge me, your hand done full already, You done deal with The Fuhrer, go ahead and take Vorster. But that woman, Mary, remember that's my baby, So much confusion that she make, you got to give Black Stalin a break. Peter, wait, I say Peter wait! Peter, look Botha reach by the gate [Burn he, burn he!] With Botha I don't want you to waste time, remember we still have Morgan behind [Burn he, burn he!] Peter, look the English woman who sent foreign troops in Africa land [Burn she, burn she!] Peter, I just don't care what you say, de Klu Klux Klan man can't get away [Burn he, burn he!] Why?... Chorus: [This is my time for burning] [Peter keep the fire blazing] Blazing, blazing, blazing! [This is Jah time for burning] I burning, and I burning, and I burning, and I burning! [Peter keep de fire coming.] Hit me! Burn dem oy! Coming, coming, coming.. We burning and we burning, and we burning, and we burning! Peter, stop pushing, it have plenty more coming. They call them from over sea, but leave my lokie During my lifetime, to me they were so unkind, So much corruption that they make, now it is time they must feel my weight. Peter, Peter don't hold me back! Look the one who draft the Public Order Act [Burn he, burn he!) Peter look, catch that big belly fella, wey carry my money down Panama. [Burn he, burn he!)

Met Black Stalin and he is the consummate artist, articulate, tactful and exceedingly creative - a musical heavyweight

[@cherylclarkewilliams344]

Great farewell to a real king, king of lyrics, king of melody, king of the people, king of san Fernando, king of the world. Great lyrics, infectious melodies/messages. Stalin you are great, will always be great. Never a boring song even when the lyrics were heavy. Thank you for being a great Caribbean man, an advocate, a philosopher, a messenger, a lover of most. I loved how u were able to apologize in song to your dear wife (Yuh cah turn back now/ no other woman but u). Love from my family to your family. Thank you all for sharing him and his music with the world.

I was lucky to see him whilst DJ'ing at SOB's in NYC in the mid 1990's. I got to speak to him in the green room. He was wearing snake skin boots. The previous group had left a gift basket behind with champagne. He asked me if it was any good and I said yes.
