I feel like I'm being assassinated by boredom or something I need some excitement, some adventure, some of that... You know that "Je ne sais quoi" I need some... some Fishbone
Day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year ! Your political leaders take it the ear for a beer and say : "Hey ! As long as I've got my diamonds & pearls & free plane rides to Europe, Let the poor be poorer and the underprived be underpriviledge, huh !" A dog crosses the street A butcher cuts his meat C'mon you rebels, dance your blues away ! The Fishy Swa Ska, that's what I say !
And further more...
Call me a poser, call me a fake I'd like to pour diarhea in your vanilla milkshake ! Rude boy, rude boy ! There's a hint you can take ! You wear your clothes and I wear mine So don't give me a job ! You prejudice swine So what if I wear mismatched monkey boots Pajama bottoms and a suit made of poison ivy ? For 6 million days ? Oh ! A bird drops a turd A lot of cows make a herd This mission I say will never be done So why should I bother to move my tongue C'mon you cats, c'mon you chicks ! Dance your blues away !
And furthermore...
See the preachers preach But the devil deceits So why should I let those bad guys stray me from my F-Bone beliefs ! I'm the one who experiments with the bullets and the sharks ! I'm the cause for the cross-over For the brand new start in the dark Yeah ! Radio man I'm talking to you ! And you machine beat junkies that have locked your doors Will get diseased by the Rock-n-Roll Whore If I dared not to get rude and make a fuss This groove would be minor and riding in the back of a bus No one cares about progression So fuck you ! Cause if you did, you'd be making a confession That's true ! But as the narrowminded say : "So near and far, It'll never happen, it's too bizarre !"
Yeah ! But don't you fret ?... There will be a movement in the light yet So c'mon you cats, c'mon you chicks ! Dance your blues away ! The Fishy Swa Ska, that's what I say !
