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
