“Take the Skinheads Bowling' is the sixth song of Custard’s 2020 album ‘Respect All Lifeforms’. It is a cover of the ‘Camper Van Beethoven’ song.
[Verse 1]
Every day, I get up and pray to Jah
And he increases the number
Of clocks by exactly one
Everybody's comin' home
For lunch these days
Last night there were skinheads
On my lawn
[Chorus]
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
[Verse 2]
Some people say that
Bowling alleys got big lanes
(Got big lanes, got big lanes)
Some people say that
Bowling alleys all look the same
(Look the same, look the same)
There's not a line that goes
Here that rhymes with anything (Anything, anything)
Had a dream last night
But I forget what it was
(What it was, what it was)
[Chorus]
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
[Verse 3]
Had a dream last night about you, my friend
Had a dream--I wanted to sleep next to plastic
Had a dream--I wanted to lick your knees
Had a dream--it was about nothing
[Chorus/Outro]
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling
