RUDE BOY
testo Lorenzo Ilari
Chilafapuliska, Goombah!, 2019

HEY, RUDE BOY!

GIVE ME THE BEAT MADE TO FOLLOW
RHYTHM OF KINGSTON TOWN
LIVES IN HISTORY IN THE MIND AND SOUL
AND PLAYS IN TWO-TONE SOUND

PRESSING OVER THE DIFFERENCES, THE ABUSES, THE POVERTY
PRESSING OVER THE CULTURE OF EARNING
LOSING LIFE AND LIBERTY OF DREAMS

HEY, RUDE BOY
LIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE
HEY, RUDE BOY
GANGSTA NIGHT
HEY, RUDE BOY
LIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE
ELEGANT ANGER AND STYLE

UPBEAT SOUND COMES FROM JAMAICA TO ENGLAND
AND MOVES THE POORER STREETS
THE HANDS OF MUSIC BREAK DOWN
SOCIAL BARRIERS AND CHANGE LIVES

PRESSING OVER THE DIFFERENCES, THE ABUSES, THE POVERTY
PRESSING OVER THE CULTURE OF EARNING
LOSING LIFE AND LIBERTY OF DREAMS

HEY, RUDE BOY
LIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE
HEY, RUDE BOY
GANGSTA NIGHT
HEY, RUDE BOY
LIVE UN THE OTHER SIDE
ELEGANT ANGER AND STYLE
