ROOTS RADICALS (Version A) VERSE Took the 60 bus, out of downtown Campbell Ben Zanotto he was on there he was waiting for me All the punk rockers and the moon stompers were out on the corners where they're sparing for change I started thinkin, ya know I started drinkin I don't really remember too much of that day Something struck me funny when we ran out of money Where do you go now 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, ya know I'm a radical Give em the boot, the roots, the reggae on my stereo.... VERSE 2 (Same chords) The radio was playing, Desmond Dekker was singing on the 43rd bus as we climbed up the hill nothing incoming but the reggae drumming and we all come from unloving homes I said "why even bother" and I picked up the bottle hey Mr. bus driver please let these people on rude girl carol was a miniskirt girl my blurry vision saw nothing wrong CHORUS BRIDGE: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.....
