we did ska and bluebeat and you were going nuts you might think ska music is all we’ve got this goes out to funk and soul to hip-hop, punk and socca blue suede shoes and reggae roots get down do the ska

folks you love to skank down that’s okay but don’t forget there’s lots of styles today we are just a nutty tribe of one great musical nation jazz and blues and rock’n’roll they gave us inspiration - inspiration

rude vibrations, vibrations - get off your seat rude vibrations, vibrations - listen to the beat rude vibrations, vibrations - give yourself a treat rude vibrations, vibrations - move your skanking feet

porkpie hats and dms that’s okay we guess rude-boy-style is here to stay and if your neighbour is a coloured guy take things as they are punks and dreads and teddy boys dig this crazy skaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

rude vibrations, vibrations - get off your seat rude vibrations, vibrations - listen to the beat rude vibrations, vibrations - give yourself a treat rude vibrations, vibrations - move your skanking feet

i hope to find out of the silly situation
but it’s difficult to pretend
i’m looking forward to an honest salvation
but it’s so hard to send

she’s the woman i need so badly
i can’t forget her smile
you and me on a thin line
i guess that we can’t lose our minds

a thousand horses running in my soul
can’t see the sunlight and the moon
i can feel that in my life there’s a hole
and the music had just begun

she’s the woman i need so badly
i can’t forget her smile
you and me on a thin line
i guess that we can’t lose our minds

she’s the woman i need so badly
i can’t forget her smile
you and me on a thin line
i guess that we can’t lose our minds

your heart is down
on the ground
love is gone
can’t make ends meet
they stole your car
you’re out of work
you’re all alone
got no friend

as long as you
got a tv-set
ain’t no reason
to complain
they advertise
a world so nice
drink reggae-rum
and there’s no rain

you’d better wake up cause we’re the fun makers
we make you laugh if you want it or not
and we bring the sunshine into your lifetime
we just don’t care if you say it’s too hot

you are the child
they show you lovely toys
they sell you dreams
that don’t come true
sweet promises
create sticky brains
and lifestyle magazines
know what to do

you’d better wake up cause we’re the fun makers
we make you laugh if you want it or not
and we bring the sunshine into your lifetime
we just don’t care if you say it’s too hot

new years-eve
no one’s gonna cry
in carneval
you will be alright
spring is fine
big fun in summertime
autumn winter x-mas
what a life

you’d better wake up cause we’re the fun makers
we make you laugh if you want it or not
and we bring the sunshine right into your lifetime
we just don’t care if you say it’s too hot

you’d better wake up cause we’re the fun makers
we make you laugh if you want it or not
and we bring the sunshine into your lifetime
we just don’t care if you say it’s too hot

you’d better wake up cause we’re the fun makers
we make you laugh if you want it or not
and we bring the sunshine into your lifetime
we just don’t care if you say it’s too hot

some people got no rhythm
some people can’t move
but i can’t stand still
when i feel that groove

it feels so nice
the heat is melting the ice
when i’m in trouble night and day
i just skank my blues away
skank my blues away

girl you are so young
and you are so sweet
i show you how to move
to the rocksteady beat

it feels so nice
the heat is melting the ice
when i’m in trouble night and day
i just skank my blues away

summertime is back in town
time to get your scooter out
winter days are far away
you’re take it for a ride

show them all your custom bits
get your chromate gats polished
seaside runs will come again
and you will meet all your friends

your scooter looks just like a mess
although you tried your very best
somebody stole your pork pie hat
your girlfriend moved to switzerland
and i beg she�s got a new boyfriend

soundsystems are back in town
blasting out the sharpest sound
club events and all-nighters
getting dressed up really cool

having fun and getting pissed
is what you have so long missed
take your chance and join the fun
and keep on dancin’ all night long

your scooter looks just like a mess
although you tried your very best
somebody stole your pork pie hat
your girlfriend moved to switzerland
and i beg she�s got a new boyfriend

dancing acting like a clown
and what you see is what you get

when clive was a young boy he never cared a lot
he used to be a bad boy he used to drink a lot
but now he’s changed he found his sight
when he met this girl

when kim was a young girl she never cared a lot
she used to be a good girl she used to dream a lot
but now she’s changed she found her luck
when she met this boy

oh what a fool he’s been
to waste his life
he quit his little charade
to trade his mind
and found a place to rest
when he looked into her dark brown eyes

have you heard the news today?
can you believe what they say?
the truth from the screen is hard to find
so come on click on your mind
you suck those informations in
tv terror, video games
there’s always noise and trouble all around
so clean up your voice and shout out loud

talk
you can’t come together if you refuse to talk
you remain a stranger
friendship is a lie
if you don’t talk

nothing in life is sure
everything can happen all the time
as long as silly people rule the world
this advice can’t be so wrong

talk
you can’t come together if you refuse to talk
you remain a stranger
friendship is a lie
if you don’t talk (if you don’t talk)

express it with your body
dance with your brain
speak with your heart
open up your mind

and talk
you can’t come together if you refuse to talk
you remain a stranger
friendship is a lie
if you don’t talk (if you don’t talk)

mickey mouse in Moscow pornos sold at GUM’s
the russians all go crazy, their government went punk
gorbatchev wears DMs, gromyko looks real mosh
instead the international hymn Bob Marley and Peter Tosh

forget old marx and lenin
who cares about the old farts
let’s party at the kremlin
and skank down in gorki park

police are growing dreadlocks, the army’s on vacation
the KGB smokes homegrown grass like the rest of the soviet nation
red square full of burger kings, komsmolski kids on dope
gimme gimme vodka all the russians sing, abandon any hope

forget old marx and lenin
who cares about the old farts
let’s party at the kremlin
and skank down in gorki park

forget old marx and lenin
who cares about the old farts
let’s party at the kremlin
and skank down in gorki park

meanwhile back in the western block russian fashion’s up to date
join your local brioska shop before it is too late
throw away your trendy clothes, get yourself new gear
furcoats, feltboots, furcaps - perestroika is here

forget old marx and lenin
who cares about the old farts
let’s party at the kremlin
and skank down in gorki park

i’m not an ordinary boy
but i could be your little toy
just bring me little honey
and i will stick on you

(ich klebe an dir fest)

don’t want no zero-bonds
nor do i need some investment-fonds
no golden rings
just give me candy
and i will stick on you

(ich klebe an dir fest)

i get my kicks out of crispy pan cakes
i would die for a custard cream
and if you wanna catch my milka heart
there’s only one thing you have to do

just bring me little muffins
or a marshmallow-pie
i will show you paradise
if you take me for a ride on your chocolate bar

biscuit cake
or a delicious season’s flake
just add a little honey
and i will stick on you

(ich klebe an dir fest)

salt and vinegar chips
bewitch me more than politics
and if they’re spicey and red hot
i will stick on you
i get my kicks out of crispy pan cakes

chocolate chips
make me go out of my mind my dear
be careful if you have some honey
cause i might stick on you

i’m a maniac
if you play with my cherry cake
i would rob just for a donut
or a hot chocolate

i get my kicks out of crispy pan cakes
i would die for a custard cream

there’s only one thing you have to do

maybe it’s all over
before it has begun
and i won’t think about it
enjoy the moments the way they come

you can really call it bad times what i’ve been through
my home was my castle and my jail, too
i’m not half the man that i used to be
afraid to open the mail that you sent to me

but now i see the sun rising in your eyes
darkness seems to be so far away from me
now i know that i could ride again
and i won’t be alone on my way and then

maybe it’s all over
before it has begun
and i won’t think about it
enjoy the moments the way they come

i’m as pure as some big cities snow
