Bonus! Song o' the Day: SKAugust

Dance Hall Crashers, "Go" from Lockjaw (Rude Boy Mike Papa Whiskey)

Skammentary: Lockjaw (1995) is eligible for this SKAugust, but Honey, I'm Homely! (1997) is not. Many such cases amongst the ska-punk bands closest to my heart.
"Wanna go with you, but I think I'll stay,
Wanna go with you, but I think I'll stay,
Wanna go with you, but I think I'll stay,
Wanna go with you, but I think I'll stay.

"And you come to me with propositions,
Like you really mean them,
Well, I've heard them before,
So many times before.
What are you afraid of,
Living, loving, hurting, crying?
It's one and all, defend your fate,
Your destiny can be what you make it!…"
