A Really Cool Dance Song Songtext
von Bowling for Soup

We grew up in the suburbs
Got guitars for Christmas and started a punkrock band
Then we travelled the nation, became a sensation
In our ′82 Dodge van

Now we're getting older and much more sober
And we got some big house payments to make
The wife wants a handbag, the kids need some college
And we need just one hit single to break
Get ready here it comes

This song sounds like a dance song
Cuz dance songs are cool now
So get up and shake what your mama gave ya
It′s our attempt at a dance song
A really cool dance song
It's gonna be a great big hit


And now the labels are so stoked
They don't get the damn joke
The downloads will rock the charts
Like those bands on the TV with frilly tuxedos
The ones that break the young girls′ hearts
And now we can too

This song sounds like a dance song
Cuz dance songs are cool now
So get up and shake what your mama gave ya
It′s our attempt at a dance song
A really cool dance song
I can't wait to hear the remix

This song sounds like a dance song
Cuz dance songs are cool now
So get up and shake what your mama gave ya
It′s our attempt at a dance song
A really cool dance song
It's gonna be a great big hit

Who the hell are we foolin
This isn′t really what we do
We had to borrow this keyboard
We only listen to Motley Crue
But it's gonna be funny
Cuz this song will be number one


This song sounds like a dance song
Cuz dance songs are cool now
So get up and shake what your mama gave ya

This song sounds like a dance song
Cuz dance songs are cool now
So get up and shake what your mama gave ya
It′s our attempt at a dance song
A really cool dance song
I can't wait to hear the remix

This song sounds like a dance song
Cuz dance songs are cool now
So get up and shake what your mama gave ya
It's our attempt at a dance song
A really cool dance song
It′s gonna be a great big hit

It′s our new sound
Chris take it to the next level
You can hear us in all the clubs

It's a... wait
The drums just dropped out
No, the drums
No it doesn′t sound good anymore
I can't find the rhythm or the.deal
It′s cool, no it's not

Allright, we′re back
We are dancing, this is awesome
We are dancing, dancing dancing dancing
Then we're dancing dancing dancing
WOOOOH yeah
