ska, me n chips

Good Gravy (The Skatalites)

From the latest album from Inner Terrestrials - Tales of Terror - available on CD and vinyl from the iT! shop http://innerterrestrials.bigcartel.com/

Lyrics:
Up town, I was wandering around
Two coppers clocked me and said “Here’s one for the pound”
I told them that I knew my rights, and started to see red
They laughed and got their truncheons out and this is what they said

“We run things in this neighbourhood
And we don’t fuck about so you better be good
No firm is as big as ours and we show no pity
From the hills to the coast, all the towns and cities
Are ruled by us with an iron grip
You march to our drum and you live in our trip
We’re the engine’s mechanics; we’ve got all the tools
This is ‘Animal Farm’, we’re the pigs, we rule!”

One day down the dole, I was smelling something funny
When the bastards lording over me would not give me my money
Their power trip was obvious, malicious and low
And a hag with a computer said “There’s one thing you should know…”

“We run things…”

In the old oak forest I was having a good time
When a bastard in a hard hat came and said “All this is mine!”
To build a tesco’s carpark I said “I’ll get in your way!”
As they beat me up and locked me up, all that they could say was…

“We run things…”

Lyrics:

I have come to realise 
that there is in fact a left and right
besides ahead
I’ve accepted it, it’s all alright

Key is acknowledgement
of where it has gone wrong
from there on just go forward
hitch in and come along

I see no evil in 
taking a step backwards 
It’s critical to be able to
close the previous chapter

We’re back on track
stronger than a massive wolf pack
We’re back on track
It’s all about the future, don’t look back

We’re back on track
stronger than a massive wolf pack
We’re back on track
It’s all about the future, don’t look back

The future is looking mighty bright
In my own perspective
once you’ve found your way up again, 
re-join the collective

I have finally realised 
it’s been okay, more than all right
I’m back on track
At last I can sleep at night
