Lyrics:
Took the 60 bus,
Out of downtome Campbell,
Ben Zanotto he was on there
he was waiting for me.
All the punk rockers,
and the moon stompers,
Are out on the corners
where their spareing for change.
I started thinking,
you know I started drinking,
I dont remember too much of that day.
Something struck me funny
when we ran out of money,
where do you go when you're only 15?
With the music execution and
the talk of revolution, it bleeds in me,
and it goes...
Give em the boot, the roots, the radicals,
Give em the boot, you know Im a radical,
Give em the boot, the roots,
the reggae on my stereo.
The radio was playing
Desmon Dekker was singing,
On the 43 bus as we climb up the hill.
Nothing incoming but the reggae drumming
and we all come from unloving homes.
Why even bother I pick up the bohle,
Mr.Bus driver please let these people off.
Rude girl Carol was a mini-skirt girl and my,
blurried vision saw nothing wrong.
