One Step Beyond Lyrics
Don't watch that, Watch this!
This is the heavy heavy monster sound
the nuttiest sound around
so if you've come in off the street
and you're begining to feel the heat
Well listen buster
you better start to move your feet
The the rockinest rock steady beat of madness
ONE STEP BEYOND!
.......
ONE STEP BEYOND!
I was just listening to some old school reggae the other day and noticed something I hadn't heard before (or ever heard anyone reference):
"Hey you, don't watch that Watch this!"
This is a reference to The Ethiopians' "Reggae Hit the Town," which contains the lyric, "Don't watch that one/ watch this one"
"This is the heavy heavy monster sound"
This is a reference to Dave & Ansel Collins' "Monkey Spanner," which contains the lyric, "This is a heavy heavy monster sound"
I would guess there are probably other references here, with these two being so obvious when you hear them. If anyone recognizes any, let me know!
Whoops. Just realized this is a cover of a Prince Buster song which actually predates the other two (I think). I guess I still have much to learn. :)

Fuck off rainbow girl. This is one of the most uplifting tunes ever written. It's a saxophone, clearly and it's one hell of alot better than any of the crapola you listen to. Adverts indeed, is that the best you can come up with? This tune opens Madstock for christs sake and there's not many tunes can live up to that.
this is one of the best ska tracks ever released, and its still around today so thats saying something. If you don't like the song then why read the lyrics?
this is my favorite madness song ever. its one of those songs that never fails to create a very happy vibe.
1.7 years without a comment. Streak is broken, hahaha, take that!
Hey you... it's a cover version.
Doesn't matter where you are, this comes on and you just want to jump around like a mad fool. Unlucky if you're in the car tho!!
yes the most amazing madness song ever...so great my band borrowed the name...but again the madness gives props to their hero prince buster...
Gah I never understand why people comment a band they have looked up just to bitch about them! This is the ultimate workout song! The constant beat in the backgound of I'm not quite sure what is the perfect thing to constantly stamp your feet to! Believe me, I've tried it and man, does it tire you out...
Who else saw this song on Gilmore Girls when lane got the cheeleaders to do their cheer to it? This song is epic! :)
