lyrics

“We promise to keep doing this if you guys keep coming, that’s all I can say man. We are The Skints and we love each other. And we love you, forever, and we’ll see you soon. I want all the crazy crew front and centre, let’s go.”

When I was young, I had swimming lessons
Kick your legs and keep your head above the water
You get older and you learn different lessons
Still keep it moving, keep your head above it all you grow and so
It stings my eyes so much I’m feeling chilled to the bone
No boat
Can’t row
We’re falling out can’t hold on to the sides reach out yeah

When we were young, we had swimming lessons
I pulled you down and watched your frown under the water
Now I’m older and I’ve learned different lessons
Can’t take for granted that your world won’t fall apart now

No echo
It freaks me out so much I’m feeling chilled to the bone
Love, sweet love
No Ro, won’t hold on anymore reach out yeah

It shook up my perspective of our lives cause every now and then I write a rhyme let out a sigh cause
Nothing will ever erase the image of that night, oh why would I try, when the ink’s already dry, love
There’s no echo
It freaks me out so much I’m feeling chilled to the bone
Love, sweet love

Just give me more, i need you don’t go, Ro
Don’t go

“Nice one London, we’re The Skints, laters.”

The only thing that stops me from comparing this to Toots & The Maytals is the perfection and precision of the Delegators’ musicianship and Janet’s vocals. marc_ian

A Nice little Ska sampler . a lot of great tracks, the best being The Scotch Bonnets - Sheena Is A Punk Rocker! Avoid the Sham 69 cover - just as bad as the original. Erasmus Windage
