Less than Jake - Nervous in the Alley

From Hello Rockview, enjoy =)

On a Tuesday in the rain,
I never thought there'd come a day.
I never thought there'd come a day, yea.
If I put myself to the test,
would I ever raise a fist.
Would I just shut my mouth,
would I just block it out.

I've swore it a million times,
never to be left again with that feeling,
of hopelessness left standing.
Just nervous in the alley.

I've swore it a million times,
never to be left again with that feeling,
of hopelessness left standing.
Just nervous in the alley, woah.

Just nervous in the alley.

And when all is said and through.
Would I know just what to do.
Would I know just what to do, yea.
If I put myself to the test,
would I ever raise a fist.
Would I just shut my mouth,
would I just block it out.

I've swore it a million times,
never to be left again with that feeling,
of hopelessness left standing.
Just nervous in the alley.

I've swore it a million times,
never to be left again with that feeling,
of hopelessness left standing.
Just nervous in the alley.

Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.
Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.
Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.
Woah-oh..Woah-woah.

It's a change of heart,
that keeps us apart
(you say its true,
you know its true,
nothing left except for me and you)
It's not that strange,
with all I have to say,
I wonder what I'm fighting for, yea.

I've swore it a million times,
never to be left again with that feeling,
of hopelessness left standing.
Just nervous in the alley.
(Woooooaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh)
I've swore it a million times,
never to be left again with that feeling,
of hopelessness left standing.
Just nervous in the alley.

Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.
Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.
Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.
Woah-oh...Just nervous in the alley.

For all those whining about Ska being dead or some crap you've got it all wrong.

The U.K just took it back,we've got an abundance of Ska,Ska-punk,Skacore,Ska-regga­e,Skadub,ska hip hop. bands tearing it up.

The Skints

Tyrannosaurus Alan

Stand Out Riot

Inner Terrestrials

Suicide Bid

and thats less than a handfull of what we're pumping out.

@Brmul12 check out the Glow Pop Jiggly Jams ;) on facebook, not youtube!

@ihatethisplace1 Walking bassline, guitars focusing on upstrokes, horn section. That's what ska is. Streetlight is a very punk-themed version with complex musical themes that seem alien to ska. But it's still ska, as far as I can tell, at least in the technical definition. And if Less Than Jake is called ska-punk, Streetlight definitely qualifies.

@superjudge3 Streetlight Manifesto isnt ska

this is just undescribably awesome :'))))

I haven't listened to this album in at least 6-7 years and as soon as one song ends on the album I begin singing the next. Like riding a bike.

I had 200 videos in my playlist for Youtube and I needed to add another. I didn't really remember this song so I clicked on this one thinking "It'll probably be terrible, and I'll just delete this song to get the space for the new song."

So I clicked on this song. And yea... I didn't delete it. I skanked to it instead.

[superjudge3]

As long as the Fish and Streetlight Manifesto are still playing, I cannot call ska dead.
