I'm not scared anymore, it's all good
I'm singing my song like I knew I could
Ska punk is my light, it's my guide
It's gonna keep me on my feet tonight
I was scared of the dark and the unknown
But then I realized I was all alone
I picked up my guitar and started to play
Ska punk beats to chase the fear away
I'm singing my song like I knew I could
Ska punk is my light, it's my guide
It's gonna keep me on my feet tonight
I was afraid of the crowd, the stage, and the lights
But now I'm dancing and I'm feeling alright
The music is pumping, my feet can't sit still
I'm singing my song, I've got my own free will
So if you're feeling scared, don't you hide
Come out and sing with me, we'll be alright
We'll chase our fears away with ska punk beats
And we'll be happy, from our head down to our feet
I'm not scared anymore, it's all good
I'm singing my song like I knew I could
Ska punk is my light, it's my guide
It's gonna keep me on my feet tonight
So come and sing with me, don't be afraid
Ska punk is the sound that won't let you fade
We'll chase our fears away, and we'll be happy
From our head down to our feet, ska punk skanking.
I'm singing my song like I knew I could
Ska punk is my light, it's my guide
It's gonna keep me on my feet tonight

They've got a photo of her at the hospital
It saves them money on the stomach pump
They've got a photo of her at the hospital
It saves them money on the stomach pump
A photo of her, is all they need to use
To help out the drunks and to flush out the goo
That got stuck inside them, from the alcohol
It's coming out now, just like a waterfall
Oh no, she's on her way down
She's the kind to go, sleeping around
Behind your back, you got goofed, clown
That's alright 'cause it's your turn now
They've got a photo of her at the hospital
It saves them money on the stomach pump
They've got a photo of her at the hospital

Flamingos can only eat with their heads upside down
You can try, but it's impossible to tickle yourself, clown
A blob of toothpaste is called a nurdle, and
Josh Wardle was the creator of Wordle
Shallow moonquakes are caused when the moon's crust slips
In the 30's a jazz fan was known as hips-ter
In Nebraska there's a town with a population of one
Can't imagine it'll be long, 'til the whole town is gone
Tigers have striped skin, not just striped fur
‘Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia'
Is a fear of long words (no shit, genius)
Can find a penis on both sexes of hyenas
Beaver bum gunk tastes of vanilla, apparently
Dogs can look up, but not all of the way, you see
Rhubarb springs up so fast you can actually hear it grow
I said we'd learn something stupid, now you know
There's only four words in the English language which end in “dous”
Tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous
There's also the specialist zoological term apodous
But I guess we just forget about that, for... simplicity
Cats can’t taste sweet things, it's in their genes
School kids need the most sleep, not teens
You can sneeze faster than a cheetah can run
Learning stupid things can be lots of fun

I like to eat chocolate

Cadbury's, Galaxy, Nestlé not so much
Bournville, Belmont, Fair trade, not enough
I like to eat chocolate all day and all night
I like to eat chocolate 'til the morning light
Hershey's is just American trash I can't stand
Milka and Lindt are some of my favourite brands
I like to eat chocolate all day and all night
I like to eat chocolate 'til the morning light
Godiva and Dove, not sure about those
Green and blacks expensive stuff from Waitrose
I like to eat chocolate all day and all night
I like to eat chocolate 'til the morning light
Love raw nutty choc balls, don't do it for me
Rather have lemon-mint sugar free sweets
I like to eat chocolate all day and all night
I like to eat chocolate 'til the morning light

You should eat all ya pasta
If you wanna swim faster
Skanking like a Rasta, at
A-quarter past-a-four
They told me
Swimmers keep their cash
In the river bank
I just told them shore
I'll go and get now
Thanks
I heard they wanna have a smoking section in the restaurant
Ain't that like having a peeing section in the swimming pool
I never take my trunks off like the elephants
That makes me the target of so much ridicule
I dove deep into vitamin sea to improve my health
But all i got was a mouthful of seaweed and some wealth
From the bounties below the surface to the beauties on the beach
There really is nothing left here that wasn't meant for me
I heard they wanna have a smoking section in the restaurant
Ain't that like having a peeing section in the swimming pool
I never take my trunks off like the elephants
That makes me the target of so much ridicule
You should eat all ya pasta
If you wanna swim faster
Skanking like a Rasta, at
A-quarter past-a-four (twenty!)
