about

Der Text entstand, als in den Anfangstagen mal die Idee aufkam, wie bräuchten unbedingt einen Partysong. Denn bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt war alles immer sehr ernst. (und das zieht sich bis heute so durch ;-) ). Am Ende wurde der Song dann immer noch so ein halb ernster Song ... mit ein bischen Party Attitüde. Anschließend akzeptierten wir erst mal, dass ernste Texte wohl eher unser Ding sind ... vieleicht kommt ja noch mal ein neuer Versuch für einen Party Song.

lyrics

Refrain:
hey punks and skins get up (oi oi oi)
move your ass and move your skanking feet
rude boys rude girls united (ska ska ska)
skank down with us now get off your seat

Verse 1:
sometimes life can be really hard and falling down can make you smart
sometimes life can even break your heart
but watch all those in depressive decay, do you really want to be that way
you could die tomorrow seize today

Verse 2:
enjoy yourself but look around, help up your brothers if they fall down
your problems ain't so bad just wait for your chance
ignore 'em now just leave 'em be and take a drink, say cheers for me
this skanking party's waiting for your dance

Refrain:
hey punks and skins get up (oi oi oi)
move your ass and move your skanking feet
rude boys rude girls united (ska ska ska)
skank down with us now get off your seat

Verse 3:
now listen to what drives me really mad, this party without you would be so sad
so could you please now stop hangin' your head
hey drink with us come raise your cup, your sadness eve' hast just been dropped
we hope this little tune may cheer you up

Bridge:
you can not always plan for the things that will come
shit can happen any time but you'll have to get along
it can always knock you down but you will never know
so don't care about it now the next tune want's your freak out

Verse 4:
enjoy yourself but look around, help up your brothers if they fall down
your problems ain't so bad just wait for your chance
ignore 'em now just leave 'em be and take a drink, say cheers for me
this skanking party's waiting for your dance

Refrain:
hey punks and skins get up (oi oi oi)
move your ass and move your skanking feet
rude boys rude girls united (ska ska ska)
skank down with us now get off your seat

hey punks and skins get up (oi oi oi)
move your ass and move your skanking feet
rude boys rude girls united (ska ska ska)
skank down with us now get off your seat
