go & get her while you can... A love song.
taiwan chungli jungli
rootsy funk, rock & reggae... Nonsense, emotion & politics over tight grooves.
Strange compadres come together from South Africa, England & Canada to spread a funky smell around Taiwan... The Smoking Cones have been wiggling bums all over Taiwan for over two years now with our multinational blend of funk, rock & reggae. Alas, it's hard to keep a band together in a foreign country... Next up is a tour of South Africa, planned to start around November of 2004.

Story behind the song
For the pinyin-illiterate, jai-yo means "go!" in Chinese. This song was recorded live off-the-floor on a Zoom 8-track recorder by our friend Dan Okano, at Solo Music in Jungli, Taoyuan, Taiwan, spring 2003.
Lyrics
so I awake cold sweat so many memories to forget I know I say I follow my soul when I look inside it's only me, you know crazy stories about crazy people told by a crazy man all these words written in sand can only make you wonder they can only make you wonder nebulize me what you get is what you see nebulize me what you get is what you see see you're riding with the tide going with the flow in the end my love you're the only one I know you're the only one so I'm starin at the sun it's not aimed at anyone so I'm starin at the sea without you I'll never be free fantasy woman, lonely man all part of the master plan all these words written in sand go & get her while you can go get her while you can go & get her while you can jai-yo jai-yo
