Woops outside your head
Woops outside your head
Crucial and red

When the sun goes down Me little moonshine darling
And you're in the mood for love and you feel like dancing
Rub it up Rub it up Rub it up Rub it up

Boogie to some music
Boogie to some music
Boogie to some music
Boogie to some music

Come mek we go deh in a rub a dub (stylee)
A dis ya ridim drive the whole world (wile)
Come mek we go deh in bang diddly bang (stylee)
I wanna know how you're feeling (irie)

Sounds call ravers
Got you craving for more
Sounds call ravers
Got you craving for more

Come mek we go deh in a rub a dub (stylee)
A dis ya ridim drive the whole world (wile)
Come mek we go deh in bang diddly bang (stylee)
I wanna know how you're feeling (irie)

Reggae bandwagon is the fashion that's going around
Dub masters back in town with the fashion that's going around
Didn't you hear

Woops outside your head
Woops outside your head
Crucial and red
Woops outside your head
Woops outside your head
Woops outside your head

Disco blaring through the window Ravers sounds got full control
A new day is dawning arrives without warning
Chart busting sounds to rock down the house say
Boogie to ze muzik
Boogie to ze muzik
Boogie to ze muzik
Boogie to ze muzik

Reggae bandwagon is the fashion that's going around
Reggae bandwagon is the fashion that's going around

So when the sun goes down me little moonshine darling
And you're in the mood for love and you feel like dancing
Rub it up rub it up rub it up rub it up

Sounds call ravers
Got you craving for more
Sounds call ravers
Got you craving for more

CHORUS
------
Come mek we go deh in a rub a dub (stylee)
A dis ya ridim drive the whole world (wile)
Come mek we go deh in bang diddly bang (stylee)
I wanna know how you're feeling (irie)

Woops outside your head
Woops outside your head
Woops outside your head
Crucial and red

Come mek we go deh in a earthman (stylee)
Come mek we go deh in bang diddly bang (stylee)
I wanna know how you're feeling (irie)
I wanna know how you're feeling (irie)

Got you craving for more
Got you craving for more
Got you craving for more
more and more, more and more, more

Outstanding album, though this isn't my fav track from it.

Surprised this is rated this low considering some of the high ratings some questionable crap gets on here

I'm going to have to go out and get this album again.  Never fails to put me in a great mood. (Even without the ganga...)

Reggae is a great medium. Play more. Great tune and a great album.

It seeems like those thugs are still getting to you. Time to move on... This LP came out around '82 (I think) anyway it was a great release and I remember listening to it a lot that summer. Great for a driving.
... or thugging. But best for what Reggae's best for: Dancing.

That was a frequent chant of some thugs in our school, and they thought they were so cute. I did not, and this song reminds me how much I hate threatening behavior as a replacement for society. Gave it a big 1 and hope I never hear it again.

at least it aint marley. brings back happy memories, this one.
Posted 17 years ago by thewiseking    [ Reply ]
Pretty sure they're saying "whoops outside your head", not "whoops upside your head". Different word, different meaning? Who knows?

Haven't heard that one before: "I gave it a 1 because of childhood trauma."

I really really can't dig reggae... I've tried, but give it up now... Probably I need to smoke some to appreciate, but then, probably I would appreciate everything...

Man, this is one of my favorite SP songs. If you EVER have a chance to see this guys GO - they're AMAZING. Really. I feel so blessed to have seen them three times. I'll see them EVERY TIME they come to Dallas.

I love it when a 1 drops the rating of a reggae song.

I'm packing up all the stuff in my office ready for a move to another building, and this just lifted my mood. I turned the speakers up and got that stuff in those crates in strict rhythm. Steel Pulse were pioneers of British reggae.

LOVE IT!! how about something (anything) from their Live album? please?
Posted 22 years ago by Platypus    [ Reply ]
I\'m the opposite to the last comment, I like reggae very much but I\'ve never really liked this song and album. Can\'t really say why, it just grates me a bit.
Posted 22 years ago by pkeys    [ Reply ]
This is one of the best reggae bands in the world. If you EVER have the opportunity to see them live -- DO IT, you won\'t be sorry. I\'ve seen them about 5 times and they never disappoint me.
