Dizze Rascal
(Dirtee Stank)

Life's too short to be livin' with stress
I'm too young to be all depressed
I can't complain, I'm highly blessed
And there's one thing that I want to get off my chest
I'm free as a bird, I'm high as a kite
I could do what I want and I'm doing alright
That's why I might just celebrate tonight
And if you ain't down with it then get on your bike
To sank elsewhere, who the hell cares
I'm in great shape, you need health care
If you cant say something nice then keep quiet
Or come to the club, there's girls there
I'm goin' to rave 'til 6 in the mornin'
I can already hear the baseline callin'
Just make up your mind, stop stallin'
And don't be half assed 'cause I'm all in
So if your wallet ain't fat don't worry about it
Your car don't work we can go without it
We don't need wheels, just the will to party
I'll take you there, don't doubt it

(Dance I'll take you there)
Disco Disco Disco Disco
(Dance I'll take you there)
Disco Disco Disco Disco
(Dance I'll take you there)
Let's Go Let's Go Let's Go Let's Go

You wanna drink? It's on me
Coca-cola, JD
I don't care about V.I.P.
'cause the middle of the dance floors cool with me
I wanna shock tonight
I wanna rock tonight
Pop-lock, maybe do the robot tonight
So many damn girls lookin' hot tonight
So before I leave here I wanna cop tonight
So I can't just stand up against the wall
Try'na play it cool, feelin' like a fool
Like I'm scared to dance 'cause I ain't scared at all
So there's no point lookin' all miserable
So I've got a big grin on my face
And my hands on a pretty girls waist
Beer budget and champagne taste
But I feel like I'm running this place
So if your wallet ain't fat don't worry about it
Your car don't work we can go without it
We don't need wheels, just the will to party
I'll take you there, don't doubt it

(Dance I'll take you there)
Disco Disco Disco Disco
(Dance I'll take you there)
Disco Disco Disco Disco
(Dance I'll take you there)
Let's Go Let's Go Let's Go Let's Go

I'm feelin' myself right now
Really revealin' myself right now
I'm actin' a fool and I think it's all good
I wouldn't be nowhere else if I could
I don't ever wanna go home, lets stay
Party all night and party all day
What do you say? Tell me you're on it
Drink 'til we can't stand up then vomit
Quicker than a comet, I feel like a star
Everyone waves, they know who we are
So much love, so much dread
Tell me you don't feel like a top boy
Infact don't tell me a thing just skank
'Cos I gotta true ting she's in the bank
No need to thank the pleasure is mine
We should try do this again some time
And if your wallet ain't fat don't worry about it
Your car don't work we can go without it
We don't need wheels, just the will to party
I'll take you there, don't doubt it

(Dance I'll take you there)
Disco Disco Disco Disco
(Dance I'll take you there)
Disco Disco Disco Disco




(Dance I'll take you there)
Let's Go Let's Go Let's Go Let's Go

'Cos I gotta true ting she's in the bank
Because I have someone important in my life


No need to thank the pleasure is mine
No need for gratitude, happy to have a good time


We should try do this again some time
Let's plan on doing this again in the future

The irony is that DJ Derek, featured here, wasย a fixture of the Bristol music scene, DJing reggae, ska, rocksteady, dancehall and R&B for over 50 years. Over the past two decades, he had become a national cult figure, playing to packed venues across England.ย Beyond the novelty value of a white former accountant playing Jamaican music, his love of the music and culture was sincere and profound.

@matthewling3293

This is the best song that has ever reached my ears. Such a positive underlying message to just have fun and be happy ๐Ÿ˜Š

Man this takes me back! Remember going clubbing & this tune coming on. Can't believe it's been 13 years! Absolute tune still!

@saronrock

Dizzee Rascal always does weird shit but somehow always makes a banger out of it.

@josanders1256

DJ Derek!!! Reminds me of escorting my mum to the Bristol Social Services christmas party as she had a broken leg. Derek was DJing, mum ended waving crutches in the air on the dancefloor!

@IanJ-70

R.i.p DJ Derek, keep the turntable turning forever man

@89zanelli
