Skinhead Worldwide
Skinhead roots
Are Jamaican
Born from the Windrush generation
London dance halls
Reggae sound systems
Ska and Rocksteady
Providing the rhythm
To Black and White youth
From the council estates
Dressed in new threads
From Carnaby Street
Rudeboy style mixed with
Hard Mod fashion
This brand new fusion spread across the nation
Skinhead
Worldwide
Skinhead
Will never die
Skinhead
Working class pride
Bootboy Bootgirl
Brown Black and White
Clean cut
Close shave
Skinhead for life
Wave after wave
On the rising tide
First the Punk explosion
Then 2 Tone and Oi!
Skins on the streets
And in the pubs
On the terraces
Or In the clubs
This youth cult
Could not be stopped
So the racists
They tried co-opt it
Pervert it for their own use
And fool the youth
But a united front
Gave them the boot
Skinhead
Worldwide
Skinhead
Will never die
Skinhead
Working class pride
Bootboy Bootgirl
Brown Black and White
Clean cut
Close shave
Skinhead for life
Skinhead influence runs far and wide
From Casual culture to the hardcore scene
This Jamaican born style
Changed everything
Without it music and fashion
Wouldn't be the same
5 decades on
Still standing strong
Skinhead reggae and Oi!
They Carry on
New bands
Boss sounds
Across the land
So many cultures
And scenes
Sharing common ground
Skinhead
Worldwide
Skinhead
Will never die
Skinhead
Working class pride
Bootboy Bootgirl
Brown Black and White
Clean cut
Close shave
Skinhead for life
Skinhead
Worldwide
Skinhead
Will never die
Skinhead
Working class pride
Skinhead!
