| "let us back in your underground" is about the ska scene and now they had made it big and then the ska phase had passed would they still be appreciated. | |

| In my opinion, this the best RBF song musically. The lyrics are great too. They're a bit cynical about their future but they still have hope. They're afraid that the ska fad will "go down in flames." Later, when they "blow over", the "main stream" will "cough up another shell", or another fad, and they'll be carried downstream and cease to exist. | |
