(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais

Midnight to six man
For the first time from jamaica
Dillinger and leroy smart
Delroy wilson, your cool operator

Ken boothe for uk pop reggae
With backing bands sound systems
And if theyve got anything to say
Theres many black ears here to listen
But it was four tops all night with encores from stage right
Charging from the bass knives to the treble
But onstage they aint got no roots rock rebel
Onstage they aint got noroots rock rebel
Dress back jump back this is a bluebeat attack
cos it wont get you anywhere
Fooling with your guns
The british army is waiting out there
An it weighs fifteen hundred tons

White youth, black youth
Better find another solution
Why not phone up robin hood
And ask him for some wealth distribution
Punk rockers in the uk
They wont notice anyway
Theyre all too busy fighting
For a good place under the lighting
The new groups are not concerned
With what there is to be learned
They got burton suits, ha you think its funny
Turning rebellion into money
All over people changing their votes
Along with their overcoats
If adolf hitler flew in today
Theyd send a limousine anyway
Im the all night drug-prowling wolf
Who looks so sick in the sun
Im the white man in the palais
Just lookin for fun
Im only
Looking for fun
