Bombskare, "The Ballad of Lloyd Knibb" from The Day the Earth Stood Stupid (Rude Boy Mike Papa Whiskey)
Skammentary: Lloyd Knibb (1931-2011), was a founding member of The Skatalites. The ska is loved the world over, but we must ne'er forget the ska's roots in Jamaica. Requiescat in pace.
"…When so the news came to this band of nine,
Their patron saint now was deceased,
When they picked their chins up off the floor,
Began the five stages of grief.
"Lloyd Knibb!
Lloyd Knibb!
Lloyd Knibb!
Lloyd Knibb!
"Lloyd Knibb!
Lloyd Knibb!
Lloyd Knibb!
Lloyd Knibb!
"Lloyd Knibb!"
