BAD CARD
Bob Marley

You a-go tired fe see me face
Can’t get me out of the race.
Oh, man, you said I’m in your place
And then you draw bad cyard
A-make you draw bad cyard,
And then you draw bad cyard.

Propaganda spreading over my name
Say you wanna bring another life to shame.
Oh, man, you just a-playing a game
And then you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard)
A-make you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard)
A-make you draw bad cyard.

I want to disturb my neighbour
’Cause I’m feelin’ so right
I want to turn up my disco
Blow them to full watts tonight, eh!
In a rub-a-dub style, in a rub-a-dub style
In a rub-a-dub style, in a rub-a-dub style.

’Cause we guarding the palace so majestic
Guarding the palace so realistic!

Them a-go tired to see we face (oh yeah!)
Me say them can’t get we out of the race
Oh, man, it’s just a big disgrace.
The way you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard)
The way you make wrong moves (make wrong moves)
The way you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard)
A-make you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard)
A-make you draw bad cyard
In a rub-a-dub style, rub-a-dub style
In a rub-a-dub style

   About Very Be Careful
El culto de VERY BE CAREFUL es algo inexplicable. Desde sus raíces humildes, tocando en los trenes de Nueva York, los cafés de Los Angeles y cualquier rumba que se les apareciera, sus audientes quedaban asombrados de la buena onda que immediatamente los convertirían en fanáticos. Los BE CAREFUL rápidamente se crearon una reputación de parranderos y animadores, y los que no conocen, pronto aprenden que la rumba BE CAREFUL no es simplemente un chance para bailar y gozar, es un DESPLIEGUE la BERRAQUERA, orquestado por cinco jovenes con un celo incontrolable por la música vallenata y el furor que inspira. Han alegrado el pueblo desde California a Nueva York, Europa, México y el Japón, tocando en las calles, los trenes, festivales, bodas y fiestas, tanto como los gran escenarios del Copacabana, Chibcha, SOB’s, el House of Blues, y Central Park Summerstage, junto con estrellas internacionales como Carlos Vives, Grupo Niche, Alfredo Gutierrez, y Fruko y sus Tesos. De sus cinco previos discos - El Niño (1998 Pinto Records), Cheap Chillin (1999 De Volada Records), The Rose (2001 Downtown Pijao), El Grizz (2002 Downtown Pijao), Ñacas (2005 Downtown Pijao) - se escuchan varios exitos cumbiamberos en las emisoras sonideras El Sonido y La Cumbia Caliente (California) y en discotecas Argentinas y Mexicanas. Fuera de eso, tambien se ven actuando los integrantes BE CAREFUL en la pelicula experimental, The Tooth (2003 Downtown Pijao). Ahora con el estreno del CD, Salad Buey (2007 Downtown Pijao), Los VBC se encuentran de nuevo proliferando el amor vallenato por todo el planeta e introduciendo nuevos clásicos para disfrutar de costa a costa. Siguen dedicados al rescate de la cultura Colombiana con un aire de alegría y un estilo sinceramente respetuoso al vallenato de tradición. VERY BE CAREFUL garantiza algo refrescante y aun nostálgico, con pasión costeña y la vulnerabilidad de los enamorados.

Adventure has never been a task for VBC. A Caribbean soul and a California heart have sustained a decade of ceaseless romp-downs and raucous times for L.A.’s vallenato veteranos, inciting 10s of 1000s of men, women, children, and even some wild animals, to boogie to the Colombian coastal beat. From the debaucherous streets of: Austin’s SXSW, and Germany’s WorldCupTour ’06; to the cultural pinnacles of: Chicago’s SummerDanceSeries, New York’s CentralParkSummerstage, Los Angeles’ GrandPerformances, Silver Lake’s SunsetJunctionStreetFair; colossal concerts: L.A. Sports Arena CumbiaFest, GlastonburyMusicFestival UK, and FujiRockFestival Japan; clubs and hubs: N.Y.’s SOBs, L.A.’s HOBs, backyard BBQs, VeryBeCareful has tamed the beasts within or unleashed the ones without. Bootlegged across Latin America, pumped at the clubs, and ripped on the radio and satellite stations of Japan, Argentina, Mexico, England, Belgium, Australia, Canada and the USA, VeryBeCareful forges ahead globetrotting alongside legends and antiheros: JoeStrummer, AlfredoGutierrez, Antibalas, CarlosVives, DubTrio, GrupoNiche, KronosQuartet, GogolBordello. Their infamous ten year traditions hosting old school “dances” for Valentine’s Day, New Year’s Eve, Halloween and the legendary July 4th Brooklyn “Cumbia Under The Sparks” rooftop affair, has brought together people from around the globe itchin’ for those early roots sounds that prove a stripped down parranda is sometimes fiercer, and funner, than a bleedin’ riot. Their newest cd, Salad Buey, is an urban jungle story of wild beasts and wilder beauties. It is a raw tale of L.A.’s gritty streets as told through the sweet and savory sounds of accordion, bass, and percussion under the same palm tree sway as on the steamy coast of Colombia. From the 1998 Pinto Records’ El Niño (produced by Money Mark), 1999 De Volada Records’ Cheap Chillin, Downtown Pijao’s 2001 The Rose, 2002 El Grizz, 2003 film The Tooth (which stars the band), and the classic 2005 Ñacas… to the new savage sounds of Salad Buey, VBC flies that “booty-shakin’ firestorm” flag higher than ever!!
