The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day: SKAugust

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "Royal Oil" from Let's Face It (Rude Boy Mike Papa Whiskey)

Skammentary: Don't do drugs, kids.
"When you smoke or poke the poison,
You lose the chance to be tomorrow (You lose the chance!),
Look out on the horizon (Look out!),
And see the sadness, the pain, and the sorrow.

"I can't say enough about the stuff
Or what it has in store,
When you smoke or poke the poison
You won't be anymore.

"Royal Oil, come on bubble and boil,
Stabs like dagger, make you stagger on a hot tin foil,
Mind your mind or it will surely spoil,
Then you sleep down in the soil,
Nothing comes from nothing, come on,
Royal Oil!…"
