Wake up, shake up and take off your make up.

[sleng teng]

many a-time I sit and wonder why / this race so, so very hard to run

[Funky Punk]

How does it feel to truly belong?
To know how you act is never wrong?
Always keeping expectations high,
Looking everyone square in the eye,
Never blamed for each indiscretion,
Concious of leaving negative impressions,
Analysing every move that you make,
In every minute from the time that you wake,
Repeating a sentence again and again,
As if you were given less of a brain,
Hassling for every crumb for the table,
From the time you climbed out of the cradle,
Breaking your back 'cause you leaned too far over,
To accommodate those rolling in clover,
Assimilating patterns of human behaviour,
Where everything's white - including the Saviour.

'Keeping the Trees Clean' - The Selecter

when i was just a ittle child
happiness was there a while
but for me it went one day
happiness come back i say
cos if you don't i'm gonna go looking
for happiness
cos if you don't i'm gonna go looking
for happiness
I'm a hurtin inside....

hurting inside - wailers - tuff gong 7"

Speak the truth and speak it ever, causeth what it will, he who hides the wrong he did will do the wrong thing still

Live good, brethren live good, for the end of thy tribulation will be rewarded.


WORD, SOUND, POWER

I want you to spell somethin' for me Jim
Can you do that? Sure John
But I want you to spell for me New York
John, why you ask me to do that?
I just want you to spell New York, Jim
Well alright, I'm gonna go ahead man

N-E-W Y-O-R-K, that's New York man
No Jim, you've made a mistake, Jim
I'm gonna teach you the right way
And the proper way to spell New York
Well, go ahead, John

A knife, a fork, a bottle and a cork
That's the way we spell New York, Jim - yeah

>ELVIS COSTELLO - THE MONKEY

Actually it would be a cover of the Dave Bartholemew's "The Monket Speak's His Mind" from the 50's. Thorpe covered this in 1967, and Costello covered it many years after that.
