Ok, help me here

[BeautifulBurnout]

Watching a tv programme called Intelligence (a Canadian show) and they have just played a reggae tune with the lyrics "I'm a steppin' razor, better watch my sign, I'm dangerous... I'm dangerous".

Which naturally grabbed my attention :p

Any ideas what this might be, chaps?

i'm not sure why you didn't just ask me on IM. i'm kinda offended.

Steppin Razor was made popular by Peter Tosh but he got the song from Joe Higgs. there's also a fantastic song called Cutting Razor by Junior Byles that is one of the classic 'lost' tracks from Lee Perry's Black Ark studio.

anyway, Peter Tosh is the one most people know but is my least favorite out of the 3 versions i've mentioned here.

excuses for not just asking me this directly will not be considered.
