Verse 1

Why boasteth thy-self, o heathen men?

Playing smart and not being clever.

I say you're working iniqui-ty,

To [a]-chieve vanity, if [a]-so [a]-so,

But the goodness of Jah-Jah, en-dureth for-ever.

To cut you down.

Shall fall in it, (fall in it).

Chorus 2

If you are the big tree,

We are the small axe, (sharp and ready),

Ready to cut you down, (well sharp),
