Rancid - Roots Radicals lyrics
[Rancid - Roots Radicals lyrics]
Took the 60 bus out of downtown Campbell
Ben Zanotto, he was on there
He was waitin' for me all the punk rockers
And the moon stompers
Are out on the corners where
They're sparin' for change
I started thinkin'
You know I started drinkin'
You know I don't remember too
Much of that day
Somethin' struck me funny when we
Ran out of money where do you go now
When you're only fifteen?
With the music execution and
The talk of revolution
It bleeds in me and it goes
Give 'em the boot the roots, the radicals
Give 'em the boot you know I'm a radical
Give 'em the boot
The roots reggae on my stereo
The radio was playin'
Desmond Dekker was singin'
On the 43 bus as we climb up the hill
Nothin' in common but the reggae drummin'
And we all come from unlovin' homes
(I said) "Why even bother?" and
I picked up a bottle
Mr bus driver, please, let these people on
Rude girl Carol was a mini-skirt girl
My blurry vision saw nothin' wrong
With the music execution and
The talk of revolution
It bleeds in me and it goes
Give 'em the boot the roots, the radicals
Give 'em the boot you know I'm a radical
Give 'em the boot
The roots reggae on my stereo
On my stereo
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Took the 60 bus out of downtown Campbell
Ben Zanotto, he was on there
He was waitin' for me all the punk rockers
And the moon stompers
Are out on the corners where
They're sparin' for change
Yeah, the radio was playin'
Desmond Dekker was singin'
On the 43 bus as we climb up the hill
Rude girl Carol was a mini-skirt girl
My blurry vision saw nothin' wrong
With the music execution and
The talk of revolution
It bleeds in me and it goes
Give 'em the boot the roots, the radicals
Give 'em the boot you know I'm a radical
Give 'em the boot
The roots reggae on my stereo
Give 'em the boot the roots, the radicals
Give 'em the boot you know I'm a radical
Give 'em the boot
The roots reggae on my stereo
Ben Zanotto, he was on there
He was waitin' for me all the punk rockers
And the moon stompers
Are out on the corners where
