UB40 - Sardonicus Lyrics






A human statue made of living stone
A paradox etched in human bone
If you could look behind his thin disguise
There's a hidden glint of madness in his eyes.

Many men are fooled by his smile
His superficial grace his charm his style
Sardonicus is everybody's friend
Sardonicus keeps smiling to the end.

  1. w.... p....

    My first musical love; pre Labour of Love UB40.

  2. P.... K....

    I got this album on cassette when it was released & the accompanying Presebt Arms in Dub
    This album & Signing Off are brilliant
    After that MEH

  3. l.... j....

    My Favourite UB40 Album & So is Signing Off

  4. C.... S....

    Break time on this working for the dole routine. Bloody Libs. .... Next stop,.....Michaela Cash and her supporters are fkn idiots.

  5. C.... S....

    I like the album Signing Off more, but there are great tracks here to. What I would like to add here is Medicare in Australia needs to be beefed up. Better funded and free dental care . The extra cash injection can come from a sugar tax. Why not bean counters. FCK you is it Scott Morrison from the liberal party. The Liberals here are umm like the British conservatives in thought. A bunch of d.heads.

  6. D.... R....

    Excellent Music & ( Words of Truth ) UB40 !!! Roch...

  9. P.... J....

    gratefull for this upload,

  10. G.... B....

    The compressed web audio quality really kills the quality for this song. I still have UB40 on vinyl and it is the only way to fully experience all the luscious ambient harmonic layers.

    G.... B....

    true words

    G.... B....

    Gerco Kragt checkout the dub, amaising,, i do not own the dub 1 love

    G.... B....

    Just enjoy don't over analyse!

    G.... B....

    @Shininglight Joi it's not analysis. it's supposed to be a sonic experience too. Whilst its still good the soundscape is glaringly different.

    G.... B....

    Agree! I have the vinyl version still in 2019!

  11. M.... D....

    Why can you not find (In my eyes UB40 best album) the album UB40. I have been searching for over a hour now, but can't find that album. In fact besides  "One in 10" can't find any songs off that album. Can anyone help. I wish that I had kept my own copy now!!

  12. M.... B....

  21. T.... ....

    Got to agree with you 46Bigdave i thought this was their best album by far. Totally original and timeless, growing up in Hokianga in the early 80's this was the music of our era, and Black Slate.
