“Here’s the plan… All of you, all fifteen hundred of you, joining hands together with us, your best friends forever, The Skints… And we’re going deep into the forest.”
To say that we are all the same is a delusion,
but from that please draw not negative conclusion,
for I mean not to say that we should not be every single race as one in equality,
for without one another the world would turn flat,
it matters not how many names are on your family map,
for the tree of life is enormous and relates to all of we,
so open up your eyes and see,
The forest for the tree.
So don’t chop we down Mr Lumberer,
and if you should succeed,
piece we back together Mr Carpenter,
in a labour of love for humanity.
I rate it, reckon I’d like it like I rock opportunity
And I roll on regardless, run and build a forest for the tree
I rested inna mi space until it started to relate to me
Respect inna the world, oh well i’m ready see
For without one another, won’t grow, we know the world inevitably crack
It’s not how many men ah reckon ours is the land
For the land in which we fell in too requires a greater need
So open up your eyes and see
Well I tell now
If you have a forest then you’ve got to have a tree
And if you have a beehive then it must contain a bee
Follow me now
If you’re boiling a teapot then you must in brew it tea
Cos no man is an island as it was sung by the one Dennis B
So big up the people that promote them individuality
Rationality and humility, vibes and factuality
And you’re wanting to act like you and me are the same but in actuality
I don’t try and derive my pride blind from my nationality
No way…
(“Same Drugs” by Chance The Rapper)
We don't do the same drugs no more
We don't do the, we don't do the same drugs, do the same drugs no more
Cause she don't do the same drugs no more
We don't do the, we don't do the same drugs, do the same drugs no more
When did you change?
Wendy you've aged
I thought you'd never grow up
I thought you'd never
Window closed, Wendy got old
I was too late, I was too late
A shadow of what I once was
(“Big Ship” by Freddie McGregor)
Say when I'm ready you must hold on steady
We're moving off at lightening speed, yeah
Take a seat and wait 'till I'm ready
I'm coming so hold on steady, yeah
Big ship sailing on the ocean
We don't need no commotion
Big ship sailing on the ocean
Big ship sailing on the ocean
Big ship sailing on the ocean

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
