You seemed to be so close to me
That's a while ago
Now you decided to head somewhere else
Why I do not know

It doesn't matter anyway
Seems there was nothing left to say

(Chorus):
I'm skanking in my lonely room
This is all that I can do
I'm skanking in my lonely room
This is all that I can do

I've ironed my best button-down
My suit looks really sharp on me today
What a shame you can't see me like this
You wanted it that way

My hips start moving all along
To the rhythm of this song

(Chorus)

Prince Buster's singing
At the dark end of the street
Somehow it's funny
cause that is where we also used to meet

(Chorus)

And keep on skanking
