Skindred - Sound The Siren Lyrics






People dem ah rock inside the dancehall
Everybody know the dred ah stand tall
Defend the weak we no defend the strong
If you defend the strong you no say you wrong
Broke up the room to the sound of the dred
Coz you no say the dred man is heavy like lead
Put babylon back inna dem place cos you know say de dred we ah go lick off dem head
Burn burn burn burn babylon dem

Now there's a reason to sound the siren
Sound the siren sound the siren sound the siren make the people dem know
Sound the siren sound the siren sound the siren make the people dem know
Sound the siren sound the siren sound the siren make the people dem know

We sound the siren
Sound the siren
We sound the siren
Sound the siren
Sound the siren sound the siren

Music ah lick and the mosh pit ah pop
Call who you want you nah go stop dat
Coulda be the kerrang or the metal hammer
For the words wha me speak me nah go stammer
Burn burn burn burn babylon dem now there's a reason to sound the siren

Sound the siren sound the siren sound the siren make the people dem know
Sound the siren sound the siren sound the siren make the people dem know
Sound the siren sound the siren sound the siren make the people dem know
We sound the siren
Sound the siren
We sound the siren
Sound the siren
Sound the siren sound the siren
We sound the siren
Sound the siren
Now we're reaping what we've sown
Us lunatics run the asylum
Sound the siren
Yea yea yea yea
Sign sign sign
Sign sign sign

We sound the siren
Sound the siren
We sound the siren
Sound the siren
Now we're reaping what we've sown
Us lunatics run the asylum
Sound the siren
Call dem all
Sound the siren
Call dem all
Sound the siren

Skindred Sound The Siren Comments
  1. J.... S....

    Excelente! EXcelente!... Greetings from Brazil!

  2. N.... D....

    That intro... I thought it was killing the name of 😂

  3. P.... O....

    clearly people don't get SKINDRED, way ahead of our time! THEY FUCKING ROCK!

  4. S.... ....

    Gestern im Konzert-Mitschnitt gesehen. Ging echt gut ab.

  5. A.... N....

    You know you're an older Skindred fan when people mention that they know the band only because of the BABYMETAL fiasco. (Both phenomenal bands BTW)

  6. J.... B....

    I'v loved these guys since I first heard Nobody back in 2004. Benji is very distinct with his vocals.

  7. S.... d....

    I love this Band. But live there even better

  8. R.... L....

    Fusion cuisine in musical form

  9. U.... I....

    The one in black dreadlocks reminds me of lil Jon and sounds like him to

  10. s.... p....

    Love skindred

  11. �.... ....

    OMG!! I’m Japanese!
    I did it!! I’m lucky to found such a very cool band!!
    Someone, please let me know your recommendation of this band song.

    �.... ....

    たける
    Destroy the dancefloor
    Stand for something
    Doom riff
    Cut dem
    Under attack
    Kill the power
    Ninja
    Nobody
    Trouble

  12. O.... N....

    OH GOD! I love you to much! In Russia, when I live - we haven't these greatest men

  13. �.... �....

    как же охуенно что эти сволочи нихуя не мегазвезды в глазах обычного шоубиза и околометал тусы. ибо их относительная непризнаность позволяет им хуярить вот такой вот жир. обожаю блять skindred.

  14. T.... D....

    The most underrated band I know

  15. S.... H....

    I have been following these guys since there Dub War days I have following them ever since, seen the them many times as skindred but never had the privilege to see DubWar without disappointment one of the best Best British band to hit the rock scene ((((((0))))))

  16. A.... W....

    The beginning riff sounds like an updated version of Killing in the name by Rage Against the Machine

  17. D.... &....

    What happened to this band

    D.... &....

    They still goin

  18. A.... C....

    Awsooooome

  20. k.... ....

    babymetal for gays

  21. J.... P....

    great band

  22. M.... O....

    Ireland gig is needed!

  23. J.... V....

    All these shitty bands getting so much radio play on Octane except for you guys. Why is this band getting zero radio play on the US?

  24. J.... F....

    Awesome video!

  25. J.... ....

    So underrated

  26. R.... O....

    sound the fucking siren

  27. E.... J....

    Sounds like that major Lazer song that was on the interview

  28. G.... ....

    I've never heard the name babymetal, or volbeat until now. Is it cause I'm American, or does Skindred have a bigger following.

  29. M.... W....

    Came here looking for comments on how they edited the 360 still shots, found Babymetal flame bait. Seriously people, he apologized, stop being pissy about it and enjoy the music. Also, if anyone does know how they edited those shots, I'd love to know!

  30. W.... ....

    My favourite song from Volume :D Sounds epic live ;) <3

  31. r.... r....

    whoaa a good song guys

  32. s.... s....

  33. P.... ....

    This comment section is painful, I'm gonna go Chester myself now.

  34. I.... ....

    What's this talk of Benji about? What happened?

  35. A.... t....

    What I'm trying to figure is how did Little Jimmy Urine let these guys escape from Steve Righ's basement

  36. K.... a....

    FUCK BABYMETAL!

  37. O.... O....

    baby metal my ass , what kind of shit is this, kind of illuminati bitches, they use kind of
    pedophilia spread the universe .listen real music not shit

  38. R.... F....

    What a fucking tune! and great live too!!

  39. l.... ....

    Benji wasn't talking about the kids, who I am sure are sweet but musically the are puppets on strings. Baby Metal is commercial bullshit.

  40. W.... B....

    NICE!!!!!!!!!!

  41. C.... N....

    Fair play. This is one hell of a music video 👌

  42. R.... B....

    the future in music is crossing genres

    R.... B....

    thats been going on for 30 years

  43. G.... ....

    Are they sponsored by Jägermeister?

  44. 9.... ....

    Ok so i read online what Skindred did...Fuck Skindred for his racist antics against Babymetal Babymetal is awesome as hell. And i dont give a shit what all you say to me my views are different than this fucking video. Doki Doki Morning Motherfuckers

    9.... ....

    All i hear is blah blah blah im a little fuckboy who needs attention that is what you are sir so  fuck off

    9.... ....

    @952shadowman Aw the little kiddie is hurt, and also learned a new word. By the way you don't hear nothing moron, because comments don't speak.You're jut pissed because somebody don't like the same shitty band as you. I called you out on your bullshit in doing that. Keep crying, and I don't need attention. Take your advice and fuck off, this is a Skindred video not fuckboys' Babymetal video. So who's seeking attention?Go to your Babyfucker video and bitch there loser.

    9.... ....

    Btw great comment i really love your language lolz :) The compliments really get to me:)Gotta love those:)Have a nice day friend:)

    9.... ....

    @952shadowman Trolling more I see, haha. Quit it. I know you're a troll.

    9.... ....

    ok bro can i ask one thing why are we fighting? clearly i know metal as much as you let me make one thing clear! I love Metallica they are the best BabyMetal is awesome but i seen better. You are right i admit BabyMetal is trash but they are somewhat good. Ok so what i am saying is Metallica i love they are good i cant deny a classic from the 80s i even have their Guitar Hero game which is fucking awesome. Plus i respect your opinion. Also have you heard of CellDweller or Blue Stahli those guys are awesome too take a look at them. just some suggestions:)

  45. 9.... ....

    Man all you people in this comment strand stop slamming BabyMetal that group is amazing but not to say that Skindred is bad because it isnt all you guys are acting like fools thinking that Babymetal was terrible because of Skindred or vice versa. All of you are fools in that manner. Doki Doki Morning motherfuckers!!!

  46. I.... J....

    STEELHOUSE!!!!!!!

  47. G.... ....

    Love it if they'd do a US tour. Sadly, due to things both past and present, I don't expect that to happen. (past: Lack of fandom. Present: Trump.)

    G.... ....

    The music is SICK, why the hell don't More people like them?

    G.... ....

    English band. Mixed/alternative genre. No radio will play them, so no listener will hear them.

    G.... ....

    I listened to them just becuse of the fact they are coming to Bråvalla (swedish music festival) and I haven't really heard about em before that

    G.... ....

    How does Trump have anything to do with that lmao

  48. U.... L....

    What even is the beef between Babymetal and Skindred? Fans need to shut the fuck up if you really are a fan. support what ever happened and not bully. It's there drama not ours. Besides Skindred and Babymetal are both amazing bands :) Music is to bring people together not to make them hate and fight.

  49. R.... R....

    Sorry Guys ... i used to listen to Skindred from Nfs Underground 2 (Nobody) and Project Gotham Racing (Pressure) these were fucking awesome tracks, but the bullshit they're producing atm is absolutely bullshit! Pure Crap has nothing to do with the tracks they did back then

  50. L.... C....

    saludos desde Argentina <3

  51. U.... ....

    Can someone explain me,what happend between Skindred and BABYMETAL ?

    U.... ....

    I have no clue i think its people being idiots assuming shit on the internet.

    U.... ....

    Unleashed Basically, babymetal won a kerrang award that benji was hosting and as he was giving the award to them, he sarcastically said "You're heavy metal?". And because babymetal fans are just as the name suggests, giant babies and took it way out of context.

  52. P.... B....

    On every fucking video these babymetal fights has to happen?

    P.... B....

    it shouldnt happen like i will look up history right now if i have to and i bet i will find NOTHING about them associating with each other in any possible way at all

  53. R.... F....

    @Skindred you guys are fIrE all you need is a ReAl rEgGaE BASSMAN @MYASS

  54. P.... L....

    Shame the rest of Volume was so boring.

  55. s.... ....

    Best band in the world.

    s.... ....

    Umm NOP!

    s.... ....

    Not live, unfortunately. Benji has the chest of a 10 yo smoker.

  56. D.... P....

    I've loved 'Skindred' since (Words of) Dub War(ning), but really Benji? Singing 'burn Babylon' while jumping around with a Union Jack reeks of more than simple irony... Let your dragon fly big guy.

  57. w.... a....

    Not sure what Benji did or said but at one time or another everyone's guilty of doing or saying something stupid

  58. O.... A....

    what a crap'

  59. W.... O....

    This band makes me ashamed to be welsh

    W.... O....

    It should make you proud.

  60. L.... ....

    U're amazing Skindred!!! Love your style too much!!!!
    Will wait for u in Italy <3

  61. C.... A....

    Opening is bombtrack

  62. A.... S....

    Cool song. Cool band. It's a shame that Benji is such a prick.

  63. U.... ....

    Why you cancelled show in Ukraine? When will you be here?

  64. T.... B....

    I love the idea of reggae metal, but this is so bad. The chorus sounds good, but the rest is just chart shit...

  65. j.... m....

    How has this only had 41,000 views

  66. H.... H....

    Just like a pig moaning, Fucking around?

  67. E.... ....

    wow
    nice production

  68. p.... ....

    All these Babymetal fans that come here just to complain about Benji... shut the hell up.
    I don't think it's cool to bully kids, and he was wrong, but that doesn't mean you should fill up the comments section with your spam.
    The past is the past, it's done now, and Skindred is an awesome band.

    p.... ....

    Hmph its not everyday you tour with Red Hot Chilli Peppers though such as a foreign band like them.

    p.... ....

    he apologized a few days later, so stop the fuzz !
    everthings cool now

    p.... ....

    Years later who is still famous and who isnt lol

    p.... ....

    Frank Bassett

    I don't know who babymetal is, I know who skindred is...

    p.... ....

    Derogatory Name they say....fucking ignorants, its unic, simple....nothing same

  69. F.... ....

    Great tune!!!!

  70. w.... g....

    skindred have A sound. not like others bands. like or hate, but it is different and thank you for that.

  71. H.... H....

    Just like a pig screaming.

  72. P.... C....

    like a spanish fan who am i think the electronic producer ruined the group!! olld your musik is amazing , this is great but not legendary.
    Cya

  73. L.... H....

    this guy is just shouting theres no actual melody just background music with a guy shouting

    L.... H....

    Unless you are talking of the first 40 seconds you must be really deft. He uses generic rock singing, reggae roots forced voice and some metal gutural, all of them are considered singing. And no, I would say metal is one the musical genres with more melody, but not this sub genre. The most melodic genres will be gothic metal, symphonic metal, jazz metal, power metal, folk metal. I would say those genres of metal are more symphonic than most popular music genres of today.

    L.... H....

    +Kuromi Darklord
    fuck off weeb, don't act like a mister know it all when it comes to music.
    Making your comments extra long isnt gonna prove you right, your opinion isnt better

    L.... H....

    Dude i considered 70% of all animes cancer. I just like 15 animes that are serious and philosophical enough for me to like them and I even dislike the japanese society. how can I be a weeb? Im not good at music but even like that I will say that is a fact metal is a complicate genre and really complex if we refer to the the elaborate sub-genres of it (and avoid the simplistic ones) and that is a fact because its complexity can be prove, but saying its better its not a fact, its just opinion. Im telling you its complicate not that is better. The guttural singing its indeed a singing, but It can depend of who you ask it to. I have know musical teachers who say its a singing style and others who didn't even knew it existed. All I can say its I have know some great professors who appreciate all sorts of music claim its a singing style and its requires talent, But its
    not something all musicians agree with. Im not a "know it all on music", im not very good at music, I have a band and Im able to create melodies with my mates.

    L.... H....

    There are no rules in metal fool! Let's hear your staggeringly good offering to the music world then.

    L.... H....

    Oh, my sweet Summer child...

    Benji can sing alright. Go listen to some more Skindred

  74. k.... t....

    Oversized garbage

    k.... t....

    How many times are you gonna comment?

    k.... t....

    xXx_Pokemaster Cyro_xXx Wiow

    k.... t....

    kingi tagosaku like you make up

  75. k.... t....

    When u apolojize to BM??..im waiting..hurry!

    k.... t....

    He already has, just piss off

    k.... t....

    Listen. I'm a huge fan of BabyMetal but I actually think everyone is overreacting to this. Sure, Benji was a prick to them but it is over now. He only attacked them verbally and in all honesty, who gives a shit? He didn't harm the physically and the girls don't care so we should just forget that it happened and let it go. Besides, both bands are very talented anyway, so enjoy the music.

    k.... t....

    Oooh, an Asian.. most of you have a nice ass!

    k.... t....

    Cliché Name and boobs

  76. R.... ....

    no more. bullying. forever.

    R.... ....

    he bullied babymetal on kerrang award. as a fan of BM I want to remind him bullying is no good lol

    R.... ....

    LOL HE DID GOOD. BABYMETAL SHOUDN'T EXIST LOL. Just came back from their show where I heard them for the first time ever. This band and guy is THE SHIT. PERIOD. Also, Babymetal is garbage. What is the problem?

    R.... ....

    +Maximilián Szlávik Whether you think BM are garbage or not is irrelevant. He acted irresponsibly. I wish people would just stop arguing about this and move on.

    R.... ....

    BabyMetal and this are awesome but on different levels same as Crossfaith which i really enjoy

    R.... ....

    Ahmad Ridwan Please, it was hardly bullying

  77. R.... ....

    this band sucks.. sounds like any other new crap.

    R.... ....

    Ramon Garza lol shut up kiddo

    R.... ....
