(sung by Short Shirt; written and composed by Shelly Tobitt)
1.
A man who is a liar
A man who go and steal
Just because he’s hungry
And to give his children meal
We can understand his kind
We can also forgive his crime
A man who knows about it
And keep it a secret
He shows no dishonour
To safeguard his starving brother
And even though he’s damn wrong
We can all understand
And so we turn a blind eye
2.
A man who is a liar
A man who go and steal
Just because he’s in the position
To do what the hell he please
We can’t just turn our heads away
We must stand up and make him pay
And all those who surround him
Trying to protect him
They are just as guilty
And must suffer the penalty
We can’t let them walk away
And the truth be told
Let God forgive
But their heads go roll
Cho.
the fyah
the fyah coming after
don’t you see them smoking
don’t worry
let them go ahead and prosper
because their smoke
it will not last forever
man it’s blowing in the wind
and when it blows away
watch it
fyah (fyah, fyah, fyah)
oooh oh my
I could tell you how they lie
oooh oh my
they will swear and hope to die
while they dig out yuh eye
3.
A man who is a talker
Raise his voice and scream
Preaching fire and brimstone
Eternal wrath revealed
We can understand his kind
They prey upon the naive mind
Look to gain salvation
This is their solution
Go keep the commandments
Wash and clean your garments
Strip away your envy
And send them all your money
so they can live life …?
Cho.
the fyahthe fyah coming after
don’t you see them smoking
don’t worry
let them go ahead and prosper
because their smoke
it will not last forever
man it’s blowing in the wind
and when it blows away
watch it
fyah (fyah, fyah, fyah)
oooh oh my
I go tell you how they lie
oooh oh my
and ah so they love to cry
while they dig out yuh eye
4.
A man who is a talker
Who raie his voice and scream
For my friends and following
We must stop and think a while
We must not be fooled by smiles and lies
Those whose work are evil
Children of the devil
They will stop at nothing
To spread and sell their doctrine
Their lying and their cheating
Are just their colours showing
No joke
Just look out for their smoke
Cho.
I say
the fyah
the fyah coming after
don’t you see them smoking
just leave them
let them go ahead and prosper
because their evil
it will not last forever
man it’s blowing in the wind
and when it blows away
watch it
fyah (fyah, fyah, fyah)
oooh oh my
I could tell you how they lie
oooh oh my
they will swear and hope to die
while they dig out yuh eye

Sometimes, it seems
The game is not worth the …
The object not worth the trouble
Press on, Press on; don’t give up
Sometimes, it seems
Only the wicked prosper
The righteous is left to suffer
Press on, Press on; don’t give up
Sometimes, it seems
Justice is really blind
Those who are wrong live right
Press on, Press on; don’t give up
Don’t give up, Don’t give up!
Cho.
Take your burden on your shoulders
Gird your loins and walk with pride
Yield not your soul to fill your purse
Better death than live a lie
For they must dry the sea
And they must move the sky
Before the righteous spirit die
Sometimes, it seems
Ignorance conquers all
Knowledge and wisdom fall
Press on, press on; don’t give up
Sometimes, it seems
Like ….
And violence come out to play
Press on, press on
Don’t give up
Sometimes, it seems
Truth will never come to light
Darkness covers all in sight
Press on, press on
Don’t give up, don’t give up
Don’t give up
Cho.
Take your burden on your shoulders
Gird your loins and walk with pride
Yield not your soul to fill your purse
Better death than live a lie
For they must dry the sea and they must move the sky
Before the righteous spirit die
Sometimes
It seems
Don’t give up
Don’t give up
Don’t give up
Cho.
Take your burden on your shoulders
Gird your loins and walk with pride
Yield not your soul to fill your purse
Better death than live a lie
For they must dry the sea
And they must move the sky
Before the righteous spirit die

I coming from the country
They thought I was easy
They went as far as to call me a clown
They say I can’t dance
They say I can’t sing
They wanted to push me ‘round
But just like a swarm o’ honey bee
Sweet and stinging
I started singing
Now when I attack the city …
the fans them shouting
Cho.
Hit man
Number one
Hit man
Jammin’ on
Oi when my music play
Oi See them break away
Oi they does jump and prance
Oi some afraid to dance
Oi cause the music sweet
Oi keep them on dere feet
Oi dey does bump dem toe
Oi when dem on the go
Hit man number one
Hit man
Jammin’ on and on and on and on
Oh Oh
Aye Aye
Oh Oh
Aye Aye
Some claim to be big stars
Two chords on my guitar
The calypso don’t have no variation
But still they claim to beat me
Don’t you see they’re crazy
Absolute exaggeration
My music is too upsetting
Lyrics catching
Melody flowing
I go make them scrub and dub and say
while the fans dem shout out at Jouvert
Cho.
This year is eruption
This year revolution
Pulsating rhythm ah go burn down this place
Them weak calypsonian
From Swallow to Junction
Even Short Shirt must get a taste
Yes when I leggo this Carnival

Hit man coming (Ai!)
Short Shirt beware
Swallow get set
Your time is up
I deeply regret
Cho.
Hit man

Transcriber’s note: This was an oral transcription from listening to the track. I tried to capture the interplay of dialects and/or vernacular, and the diction that is so distinctively Short Shirt. This track – a personal favourite – is from the Ghetto Vibes album, 1976, written by Shelly Tobitt. No profit is being made; it is being shared here purely for informational purposes. – JCH
I’m not promising to make a habit of this (first Pledge now another set of King Short Shirt lyrics) …transcribing this stuff from the voice recording is time consuming…plus I’m not entirely sure every word is accurate … but for what it’s worth, here’s another classic from the Antiguan and Barbudan calypsonian known affectionately as the Monarch, because he is the winningest calypsonian in our history – count them 15 local Monarch crowns, plus Caribbean calypso king crowns, plus road march wins…
At last, at long last, at last
Out of chaos and strife, we found a hope we’ve never known
A glimpse, just a glimmer, just a gleam
But a flicker of light like I have never seen
The voices of my people tells me that they’re reaching maturity
Their spirit shows that determination for a new society
Though plagued by injustice, misfortune, and strain
And constant oppression
I foresaw a change
Though we fail to get along
Is one thing we have in common
The oppression we bear
Will forge us as one
Cho.
Yet in spite of all our
Hardship and misery
And poor economics condition
We must struggle on
The state of affair at the moment indicate that a stand will have to be taken soon
By we, the people, ourselves
For our future’s sake
Can’t allow all our time, efforts and talents to waste
If we open up our eyes
We could soar the skies
And make this island a paradise
We can’t unite speaking with divided voices
Rise rise rise rise
People open up your eyes
Produce, that’s the answer,
Produce
Develop our own, use our own, and own our own
Despite our political views
We must all understand that we are part of this island
And the same stick licking the wild goat
The same stick licking the tame
Everybody drifting in the same boat
We all sinking just the same
Some of them are claiming that they have this country at heart
But their actions are showing
They splitting the people apart
And they pulling and tugging we
We so colour blind we can’t see
It’s no wonder we are used
And abused constantly
Cho.
Yet in spite…
Perhaps, just perhaps, I thought
The pressure we feel that is revealed the world around
Would serve us as a lesson that ought
To make us aware the needs to create lifestyle more sound
The principles of capitalism has left us an empty shell
The decadence of society is the results as well
Promote cooperation, knowledge, and skill
And industrial programmes that will be producing
A strong and hardworking man will
Be glad to own a piece of this land
And be rid of this cancer of foreign domination
Cho.
Yet in spite…

The cover of the Calypso Association 50th anniversary magazine on which I had the privilege of working as editor.
As with the playwrights and screenwriters, the listing of Calypso song writers may will take a good long while, building sloooowly over time as I gather information and as I find time to upload the information I already have. Part of the challenge is that while we know the names of the artistes, the writers often exist somewhere in the wings, out of the spotlight (sometimes deliberately so). Often, even today, there are no liner notes (a pet peeve of mine since well-written liner notes enhance the listening experience for me). So, more than any of my lists, this one promises to be a challenge. In a number of cases, I’m not 100% sure about the songwriting credits (so if anyone knows, for sure – i.e. with proof, please email wadadlipen@yahoo.com). I think Antigua and Barbuda has produced some classic calypsos (and noteworthy songs in other genres) and they dripped from somebody’s pen; and those guys and gals deserve a bit of the spotlight, wouldn’t you say?
Davidson ‘Bankers’ Benjamin – Bankers’ popular tracks include ‘Me D Ras’ and ‘Fire go bun Dem’ which won him the Antigua Calypso Monarch crown in 1996. He’s also popular for the songs he did with Dread and the Baldhead (‘Motorbike’, ‘Do You wanna rock some more’ etc.) in the 1990s and for songs like ‘Pulling Me’ on the Sweetest Mango [film] soundtrack.
Muerah ‘Mighty Artist’ Bodie His calypsos are known for their double entendre (read: alternate lewd interpretation), earning the most humorous prize in competition a time or two. His songs include ‘Vitamins and Iron’, ‘Tarpan Tone Up’, ‘Woman Working Under Man’, ‘Me Ole Wife’, ‘Pot Hole’, ‘Business Dead’, ‘Clap You Tongue’, and others. He’s been singing since 1972.
Marcus Christopher– over 300 calypsos written: incuding several which won the Calypso Monarch competition like Short Shirt’s ‘Carnival on the Moon’ (1969), ‘Beatles MBE’ (1965), ‘No Place Like Home’ (1964) and ‘Heritage’ (1964), ‘Technical School’ (1971), ‘Black Like Me’ (1971); Zemakai’s ‘Tribute to Radio Antigua’ and ‘Fidel Castro’ (1961); King Canary’s ‘Gem of the Caribbean’ and ‘Slapping Hands’ (1960) and ‘Island People Names’ and ‘Immigration Bill’ (1962). Also many that while not winners are memorable, such as Short Shirt’s ‘Parasites’ (1963) and ‘Anguilla Crisis’ (1969) and Sleepy’s ‘Under the Carpet’. Christopher died in 2015.
Toriano ‘Onyan’ Edwards – One fourth of the original groundbreaking Antiguan jam/soca band Burning Flames and later a solo act and four time calypso monarch (1997, 1998, 1999, 2000); Onyan has attracted controversy for lyrics deemed offensive by some (I for instance wrote an article critical of 2012’s ‘Kick een she back doh‘- loved by fans who assured it the road march win, and decried by women’s groups) and not for the first time; anyone remember such classics as ‘Man fu Whorehouse’ and ‘Baby Food’ off the Baby Food album? But with songs like ‘Crazy Man’, ‘Old Fire Stick’, ‘Life in the Ghetto’, ‘Nice and Slow’ and even the named controversial songs he remains a crowd favourite and road march winner.
Mclean ‘Short Shirt’ Emmanuel – The Calypso Hall of Famer is celebrated as The Monarch (subject of the documentary film The Making of the Monarch and of the book Nobody Go Run Me – long-listed for the 2015 Bocas prize) as the 15 time Calypso Monarch (’64, ’65, ’66, ’69, ’70, ’72, ’74, ’75, ’76, ’79, ’80, ’86, ’87, ’88, ’92) of Antigua and Barbuda; in addition to being a multiple title holder in both the Road March and Caribbean Calypso King categories. Check out this article on his 1976 album, Feeling the Ghetto Vibes. Also scroll down for the Shelly Tobitt entry.
Fd – The official pseudonym of a songwriter who provided evidence of his contribution to Antiguan calypso (as I hope other songwriters will do so that I can continue to build this data base). Those contributions include social commentaries – ‘True Antiguan’ (2011), ‘Forward Together’, ‘Share The Honey’ (1992), ‘Heaven Help Mankind’ (1993), ‘How Could I Sit Back’ , ‘Tell The Truth’; and party tunes – ‘Push Back You Bam Bam/Jennifer’ (1987), ‘Taste The Honey/Taste It’ (2011), ‘After Midnight’ (1983), ‘Get It Up’, ‘Champion’ (1987) & ‘Angela’ (1987) – all performed by King Short Shirt. Other Fd songs: ‘The Party’, ‘Give me a Beer’, ‘Rolling Back’, ‘That’s How I Like It’, ‘Wire Waist’, ‘Stay out of Politics’, ’25 Years’, ‘Good Advice’, ‘Love Me Up’, ‘Shake de Booty’, ‘Push Wood’, ‘Selfish Man’ (1983), and ‘Rub Your Body (1983)’.
Stanley Humphreys – a frequent Short Shirt collaborator beginning with 1980s Summer Festival album, continuing wtih 1981’s Dance with Me Album including songs like ‘Nationalism’ and ‘We have got to Change’, and ongoing; also in 1981 ‘Pledge’ (as confirmed by the artiste himself).
Joseph ‘Calypso Joe’ Hunte – His classic ‘Bum Bum” became, in 1970, the first homegrown winner of the Antigua and Barbuda calypso road march title. Other well known tracks composed and (I believe) written by Joe include: 1971’s ‘Educate the Youths’ and ‘Recorded in History’ with which he won the Calypso Monarch crown; ‘War’, ‘A Nation to Build, A Country to Mould’, and 1972’s ‘Life of a Negro Boy’.
Tameka Jarvis-George is a novelist and poet who continues to cross boundaries by mixing genres such as when she converted her poem Dinner into a short film of the same name. Her lyrics for Naki’s ‘Talking in Tongues’ on the Tin Pan Riddim is another example.
Oglivier ‘Destroyer’ Jacobs has written for both himself and his son Leston ‘Young Destroyer’ Jacobs. Destroyer Sr. has never won the crown, though he came close in 1971 and 1989 winning the first runner-up spot. His written songs include 1967’s ‘Bring Back the Cat-o-Nine’, 1989’s ‘Discrimination’ and ‘Message from Gorkie’, ‘Back of de Bus’ (sung by his son and winner of best social commentary in 2006),
Accepting a National Vibes Star Project Award
‘Woodpecker Sarah’, ‘Jail Cart’, ‘Country Running Good’, ‘All Fool’s Day’, ‘Beg Georgie Pardon’, ‘Ah Wha Me Do You’, ‘Can’t Smile ‘Bout That’, ‘Ah Wonder Who Do Dis’, and many others.
King Zacari
Trevor ‘King Zacari’ King (pictured above, performing)- The 1991 and 2001 monarch began writing for juniors in the early 1990s (e.g. ‘The Zulu Will Rise Again’ performed by Pepperseed) before entering the arena with his own tracks among which can be counted ‘Black Rights’, ‘Guilty of Being Black’, ‘Fine Ants’ (2001), ‘Guilty as Charged’ etc.
Kobla ‘Promise No Promises’ Mentor – This Guyana born singer-songwriter broke through in Antigua with his behind the scenes contributions (as co-writer) on the 2003 Wanski hit (‘More Gyal‘) before claiming the so/calypso spotlight the following year with hits like ‘Can’t Stop My Carnival’ and ‘Pon de Move’; 2010’s ‘Do Good‘, 2011’s ‘Her Drums‘, and 2014’s ‘Draw we out‘are among his more recent offerings.
Lesroy Merchant– His songwriting is referenced in this obituary/tribute but details of the specific songs remain elusive. RIP. ETA: “Lesie wrote mainly for Franco, as a matter of fact, it was Lesie who introduced me to Franco and tried to get me to write songs for him. I was very busy at that time hence Lesie wrote the songs for Franco and many times he would have me look at them and asked for my input. May he rest in peace.” – William Shelly Tobitt in the comments below the post ‘Press On’
Justin ‘JusBus’ Nation – He’s written and produced songs and remixes for many artistes including himself with his 2015 J. Nation CD (‘Vertigo’, ‘Hard Work’, ‘Sometimes I’, ‘Blasting Away’ etc.)
Dorbrene O’Marde – song listing requested. Dorbrene is also the publisher of Calypso Talk magazine and the author of the Short Shirt biography Nobody Go Run Me.
The Mighty Bottle (Percival Watts)– ‘Fungi’, ‘Dive Dung Low’, ’10 Bag a Sugar’.
Rupert ‘Littleman’ Pelle – Winning Junior Calypso titles during an uninterrupted eight year run: ‘Parenting’, ‘Prostitution’, and ‘Wadadli Children’ sung and won by Lady Challenger (pictured left, above), 2000-2002; ‘Jump & Wave’, ‘Aunty Esther Say’ sung and won by Princess Thalia (2003-2004); and ‘Train Us Up’, ‘T. N. Kirnon Say’, and ‘Thank You Icons’ sung and won by Lyricksman (2005-2007). – Junior calypso record courtesy a facebook post by Trevaughn ‘Lyricks Man’ Weston on Littleman’s passing in December 2020. Also, ‘Riot 68’ for Latumba – first song when he was still performing as Deceiver (1968) and ‘From Statehood to Independence’ for Prince Jasbo (1978), along with songs for Daddy Iko, Calypso Farmer, Baby Eve and many other junior calypsonians.

Rupert ‘Swallow’ Philo – ‘Raphael Trujillo‘ (1961), ‘Party in Space’, ‘Man to Man’, ‘Dawn of a New Day’, ‘We Marching’, ‘Subway Jam’, ‘One Hope One Love One Destiny’, ‘Don’t Stop this Party’, ‘Fire in De Backseat’, and more as chronicled here. With Short Shirt and Obstinate, he is considered one of the big three of Antiguan calypso and a legend in his own right. King Swallow died in 2020. RIP.
Quarkoo, circa 1942. (Museum of Antigua and Barbuda archival photo)
“The dominant form of popular music in Antigua [up to arouund 1950] was ‘Benna’. The main proponent at the time was a strolling minstrel John ‘Quarkoo’ Thomas.” – P. 20, King Short Shirt: Nobody Go Run Me by Dorbrene O’Marde. Listed among his songs – ‘Maude Smell Donkey’ and 1924’s ‘Man Mongoose, dog know your ways’; 1943’s ‘Yes, it is more than tongue can tell…’
Sir Prince Ramsey is a family physician by profession, an HIV/AIDS activist by choosing, a calypso lyricist and producer by calling. He has produced more than 45 calypso albums and written over 100 songs since 1979 for artistes like King Obstinate, Rupert ‘Baba’ Blaize (‘In Antigua’), Onyan (‘Stand up for Antigua’ – 1998 Calypso Monarch winner), De Bear (‘My Allegiance’ – 2003 Calypso crown winner; and ‘Man is Nothing but Dust’ – 2007 Leeward Islands calypso competition winner), Zero (‘Protect Yourself’ – 2002 Calypso Monarch winner), De Empress (‘We don’t want it here’ and ‘Power of a Woman’ – 2000 Queen of Calypso crown winner), Blade (‘The Brink’ – 2008 Carnival Development Committee winner for best writer and best calypso), and others (about 50 artistes in all). Dr. Ramsey died in 2019. RIP.
Shelly Tobitt – Arguably Antigua and Barbuda’s best songwriter in the calypso arena, especially at his height in the 1970s during his winning partnership with the country’s most lauded calypso icon The Monarch King Short Shirt. It’s important to define Shelly’s partnership with his cousin and frequent collaborator Short Shirt. “Shelly wrote, virtually everything. He also provided ‘base’ melodies. Short Shirt either fine-tuned the melodies or created new ones based on his singing abilities or his own melodic instincts and he helped shape musical arrangements. He also provided a grounding of Shelly’s lyrics. Shelly was the poet, prone to flights of fancy and fantasy. Short Shirt pulled him back, opting for the ghetto slang or the dialect expression in phrase or sentence.” – p. 81 – 82, Nobody Go Run Me by Dorbrene O’Marde. Among the songs they did together are ‘Lamentation’ in 1973; ‘Lucinda’ in 1974; the songs on 1975’s Pan Rhapsody album – ‘Pan Rhapsody’, ‘Cry for Change’, ‘Awake’, ‘Antigua’, ‘Miss Yvette’, ‘Leh We Go’, ‘Vengeance’, ‘Lead On’, and ‘Come J’ouvert’; the tracks on the classic Ghetto Vibes album of 1976 – ‘Carnival ’76’, ‘Inspite of All’, ‘When’, ‘Tourist Leggo’, ‘Nobody Go Run Me’, ‘Power & Authority’, ‘Fantasy’, ‘Vivian Richards’, ‘Hands off Harmonites’, and ‘No Promises’; ‘Rock and Prance’ in 1977, ‘Jammin’ and ‘Gently on my Mind’ in 1978, ‘Press on‘ the title track for an album that included songs like ‘Viva Grenada’ and ‘What You Going to do’ in 1979, and ‘HIV/AIDS’ and ‘Fyah’ in 1988. Tobitt’s discography also includes: Latumba’s ‘Culture Must be Free’ and ‘Liberate Your Mind’ in 1979, Chalice’s ‘Show Me Your Motion‘ (1981), King Progress’ ‘You getting it‘ (1984), Figgy’s ‘Look what they’ve done to my song‘ (1998), ‘Benna’ (2011). ETA: “I am the writer and arranger of my works and provide everything needed to realize a complete production. Back then, before I could write the musical parts for the musicians I needed an arranger to do so, but it was my arrangements that they wrote. I sat with and instructed every arranger I worked with how I wanted the songs, and what rifts and motifs to write.” – William Shelly Tobitt in the comments section below the post ‘Press On’
