Marley, Ziggy - Dragonfly Lyrics






Everybody's worried about time
But I just keep that shit off my mind
People living on twenty four hour clocks
But we're on a ride that never stops

Hey mister bee the world change but you remain the same
And I wonder how you'll survive with the environment going down the drain
Hey miss dragonfly I see you look at me with your beautiful eyes
You must be wondering what type of creature am i

A dog looked at me and said ziggy why can't we trust man
Puss and me get together why can't you all just understand
An old tree stood there silently listening to every word we said
As a tear fell he cried what type of creature is man

I said hey mister tree the world change but you remain the same
And I wonder how you survive with the environment going down the drain
Hey miss butterfly I see you look at me with your beautiful eyes
You must be wondering what kind of creature am i
You must be wondering what kind of creature am i

Everybody's worried about time
But I just keep that shit off my mind
People living on twenty four hour clocks
But we're on a ride yes we're on a ride we're on a ride that never stops

Hey mister bee the world change but you remain the same
And I hope you'll survive with the environment going down the drain
Hey miss butterfly I see you look at me with your beautiful eyes
You must be wondering what type of creature am i
You must be wondering what type of creature is man

  26. D.... F....

    Coisa linda s2

  27. R.... L....

    just read an article wherein it seems Ziggy love israel and perhaps want to be jewish. ziggy you should know some of the biggest dlave traders were jewish selling your ancestors. Your marriage to a jewish female does not change that fact. lastly, as far as the imposters in Israel is concerened, you are black, your children are black and would be a second class citizen if you lived in israel. you need to know who you are. you are lost as majority blacks are.

    R.... L....

    +ajp P the truth make me a racist?how. so, explain

    R.... L....

    +ajp P yes so since blacks were involved in the slave trade erased the jews involvement. i get it. They talked about 6 million jews killed but you never hear mentioned the 10-12 million blacks killed in Leopold so call Belgium congo. if im racists and or antisemtic i have good resson to be. since 1863 blacks were legally emancipated and the suffering continues to this day. blacks are still second class citizen, shot by police, deny education and jobs and i could go on while the jews control America.

  28. s.... ....

    we the most savage creature on this planet...
    we are human beings...
    that means being humane...
    let's all try to fit in one with nature...

    Love ❤ zizzy Marley dragon fly

  51. K.... R....

    Especially the part about the dog saying, "Why can't we trust man?" Those poor things on the beaches in Puerto Rico.......We brought one home. Humans suck!

    K.... R....

    Keef Riffhard we do not suck rather than complain why don't you be true to yourself and make a difference why don't you do something. I'm Puerto Rican why can't you just accept that this is meant to happen for man kid to come to a conclusion that the material does not matter or worth for humans it's what creates trouble. To think that negative thought. Man don't think that way. Or ever say that words have power we do not suck. Educate those the right way and maybe we might just not suck. Learn to unify with love and peace and positivety.

  52. e.... ....

    Does anybody else hearing this song watch the nat. geo. channel and wonder why we aren't living off the land like everything else in this planet except humanoids

    M.... L....

    urbanization is the only way to keep nature alive, there are too many of us

    M.... L....

    Nope, cant says I do....

    M.... L....

    I mean technically we still do live off the land, but i completely get what youre saying. Me ans my girlfriend are actually getting a mini bus and turning it into a home on wheels this summer! All about decreasing your carbon footprint and being more one with nature

    M.... L....

    Actually I do...and it's quite peaceful for the most part....

    M.... L....

    I know, so strange how we don't live in balance with nature, I really don't get it. People are funny things. Xxx

  80. T.... ....

    This song always makes me tear up. Man really is a horrible creature compared to the peaceful and beautiful earth and all of it's animals.

  81. S.... ....

    "What type of creature is man?"

  82. T.... R....

    I just keep that shit off my mind

  83. D.... C....

    Her is the best!

  85. x.... v....

    me diz o site aii pra baixar

  86. G.... M....

    Out of all the comments she reads you think that she is going to remember that one?then you expect her to know what it means? Either way if it helps her stay into reggae i'm not bringing it up. Glad she listens to good music

  87. N.... G....

    Drop this sort of commenting please. Not everyone wants to read about it.

  88. B.... J....

    hey man we all got our own beliefs, there isn't anything wrong with a little marijuana :) i do appreciate and respect your love for family though, just try not to turn any negativity his way, just trying to express his love :))

  89. E.... W....

    Why everyone gotta be vexin on a reggae share? To each his own, (interpretation, etc) that is what its meant, don't bother each other mon, ganja yes, ganja no, I and I is I and u is u, RESPECT!

  90. d.... j....

    great song

  91. s.... ....

    Perhaps you yourself are speeding up this 'corruption'. Let people be how they're going to be; for many reggae and cannabis go together. The only sad thing about what you said is parents (or just the helicopter brother) being offended at reading a ganja comment on a REGGAE video. Think about it. Much love.

  92. E.... C....

    This song has the word 'shit' in its lyrics and you're more concerned about someone mentioning ganja in the comments?

  93. S.... D....

    I'm in love

  94. C.... B....

    Love your response.

  95. e.... ....

    Look at the comment I replied to the person who replied to you. It is just my interpretation, but maybe it'll help you make some sense of what Ziggy may have meant with this song.

  96. e.... ....

    It's not weird at all. Time is such an abstract thing that humans have tried to make concrete via clocks, calenders etc. But in reality, time doesn't have a beginning or end : "we're on a ride that never stops". It isn't about how stupid humanity is (sounds harsh), but how we aren't able to understand or trust. We're missing unity. "What type of creature is man" without unity? If you look at nature you realize how unified it is, so why can't we be like the tree, the dog, or the dragonfly?
