Where Have All the Rude Boys Gone?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Where Have All the Rude Boys Gone? is a song by Ted Leo and the Pharmacists from their 2003 release Hearts Of Oak. It was the single from the record, and the video received airtime on MTV[1]. The lyrics of the song pine for an older age of ska music and the "rude boys" who represented its most dedicated fans. Additionally, the song is thoroughly laced with references to The Specials. The video is based on carnival of souls.
