The Specials - Do Nothing (with lyrics)

[sargantfrosty]

I always thought they said "countrymen" instead of "I'm dreaming" lol. Thanks for the lyrics video! You have wonderful taste in music, I am subscribing :)

[emmykaninchen]

I love the lyrics! The world now... isn't better then in the past. 'Nothing ever change' right. It speaks out of my soul .

"Policeman smack me in my teeth": do you suppose this was a real life experience of Jerry Dammers?

[allegromarcato]

@gianca60 Who knows! But that's not as bad as getting shot by a cop killer as it happens in the country where I live.

[moonshiny74]

Some of us definitely know what you mean. I exchanged a bright pink pixie bob and a young and rebellious lifestyle for a job in law, a kid, and subscriptions to Better Homes and Gardens and Bon Appetit :p. I host dinner parties instead of wild parties. I still have my black and white doc marten mary janes, though :D.

Thank you tes74 for adding the lyrics to this song. Definitely one of my all time favorites. Takes me back to my ska years in the early 80's!

[evasakel]

wow.i love those lyrics and that tune.

[walesfan1]

My fav Specials tune. Gonna see them in Cardiff on Sunday, the last time I went to a Specials gig was Cardiff 78 or 79, jesus, over 30 years ago. I still feel like an 18 year old Rude boy, it's a shame I don't look like one. Can't wait for the gig, hope it's as violent as the last one. Thanks very much for posting a classic.

[bert031078]

"Policeman come and smack me in my teeth" - Love it! Just over one month till the Specials come to Melbourne. Madness three months ago, now the Specials... awesome.

[magicnut21]

LEEDS WAS SOOOO GOOD. Front and centre. Bruised ribs from the crush and well worth the pain. There were a few wallys in the crowd but hey ho. I had a mint time, as I am sure the majority of the crowd did. 'NOBODY HATES...SPECIALS' X

Peace.

Nice one! Reminds me of being 14/15 and standing outside the chippy in my school dinner hour, feeling very anti-establishment and anarchic, with my ska badges on my blazer lapels, a pea mix in one hand and a Player's No. 6 in the other! Happy days! Thanks for the memories!

[privatehelluk]

One of my favourite Specials songs, actually prefer this album version to the single version, the single had too many organ overdubs on it. Stay rude. :)
