Song Lyrics

Dub is the place we come to argue and debate
It isn't just a backdrop for our herbal intake
And in this time we fill the space with noise
Black noise will be a sound you can't avoid
We're raising our voices to reflect our reality
Using dub as our foundation because we've got dub mentality

Listen to the sound of the drum and the bass
Different communities meet up in the same place
We are mixing the flavours to suit every taste
This music have the power for all of the human race
Dub is the teacher
Jungle is the preacher
Dub education through the jungle a go reach ya

Cut and a splice and regeneration
Militant mix and equalisation
These are the methods for a serious operation
Pushing back the borders of your musical civilisation
So listen without prejudice and without delay
To the sound of the Asian Dub Foundation today

And in this time we fill the space with noise
Black noise will be a sound you can't avoid
Listen to the drum and bass
Different communities meet up in the same place
We are mixing the flavours to suit every taste
This music has the power for all the human race

Dub is the teacher
Jungle is the preacher
Dub is the preacher
Jungle is the teacher
Dub is the teacher
