Toots & The Maytals - Pressure Drop (Ska version)

Pressure Drop

Hmm hmm hmm, yeah... [3x]

It is you (oh yeah)
It is you, you (oh yeah)
It is you (oh yeah)

Cause a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah pressure drop a drop on you
I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah pressure drop a drop on you

I say when it drops, oh you gonna feel it
Know that you were doing wrong.

Hmm hmm hmm, yeah... [3x]

Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you [2x]

The Specials - Dirty Old Town

Dirty Old Town

G
I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I Kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Clouds are drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl from the streets at night
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

( Solo vers ) ( C )

G
I Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I Smelled the spring on the smoky wind
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Simmer down, you lickin' too hot, so
Simmer down, soon you'll get dropped, so
Simmer down, can you hear what I say
Simmer down, that why won't you, why won't you, why won't you simmer down

Long time people dem used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly, so

Simmer down, for the battle will be hotter
Simmer down, can you hear what I say
Simmer down, oh that I'm a leaving you today

Simmer down, a that I'm leaving you today
Simmer down, can you hear what I say
Simmer down.

Chicken Mary, hawk de near and when him de near, you must beware, so
Simmer down, oh control your temper
Simmer down, for the battle will be hotter
Simmer down, and you won't get no supper
Simmer down, and you know you bound to suffer
Simmer down, simmer, simmer, simmer right down
Simmer down, like you never did before
Simmer down, oh, oh, oh
Simmer down, can you hear what I say
Simmer down, you lickin' too hot so
Simmer down, and you know soon you'll get dropped, so
Simmer down, why won't you simmer, simmer down
Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down
Simmer down, simmer, simmer down
Simmer down, oh simmer, simmer down
Simmer down, like you never did before...

The Bodysnatchers - Ruder Than You (1980)

Ruder Than You

Hey I want to tell you about something
that we rudegirls can do just as well as you
They forget about us up to now,
but take care boys,
we may well show you how

Long time now it is men only scene,
we didn't skank so well but we were keen
Now rudeboys don't have it their own way,
Hey listen we have something to say!
Rudegirls...you better watch out
Rudegirls...now there's more of us about
Rudegirls...

(2x)
We're ruder than you!
We don't want to fight
We don't need no tests
Cuz it doesn't matter who is the best
So, you rudies, make sure you're out there
These good sounds we were glad to share
That is all we really want to do
That's the BodySnatchers, we play for you!

The Bodysnatchers - Too Experienced

The Bodysnatchers - Easy life

The Specials - Nite club

(With lyrics)

Is this the in place to be?
What am I doing here?
Watching the girls go by
Spending money on...

Sleep all day
It's the only way
I'm a parasite
I creep about at night

Nite Klub, is this the in place to be?
Nite Klub, what am I doing here?
Nite Klub, watching the girls go by
Spending money on...

Hey, hey, I don't work
Cos I don't have to
I don't have to work
There's no work to do

Nite Klub,
I'm a member of the Nite Klub
Nite Klub,
A fully paid up member of the Nite Klub

I won't dance in a club like this
All the girls are slags
and the beer tastes just like piss

I'm a parasite
I creep about at night
Yes I'm a member of the Nite Klub
A fully paid up member of the Nite Klub

Nite Klub, is this the in place to be?
Nite Klub, what am I doing here?
Nite Klub, watching the girls go by
Spending money on beer!
