The Lonely Island - Boombox (Feat. Julian Casablancas) |
|
Imagine in your mind a posh country club |
|
The stuffy old money where the poor kid's snubbed |
|
The spread is bland sauerkraut and boiled goose |
|
There's no way these people will ever cut loose |
|
But then I walk in the room, hold my boombox high |
|
And what happened next, will blow your mind |
|
Everything got outta control |
|
The music was so entrancing |
|
Everyone got out on the floor |
|
It was a bunch of old white people dancing |
|
Now picture if you will a bunch of business men |
|
Stuffed in the boardroom like pigs in a pen |
|
The ties around the necks are like a hangman's noose |
|
In the middle of the table theres a boiled goose |
|
The old people smell makes you want to puke in the sink |
|
These dudes will never dance yeah that's what you think |
|
I stride in the room all young and hip |
|
Hold up my boombox and say listen to this |
|
Then everyone started to move |
|
People rejoiced instead of financing |
|
Your preconceived notions were shattered |
|
By the super old white people dancing |
|
The big apple, where people never dance |
|
Spirits go down while profits expand |
|
The cops or the dealers, who's got the juice |
|
The street benders peddling their boiled goose |
|
So many types of people will never get along |
|
Till I bust out my boombox and play this song |
|
The music washed away all the hate |
|
And society started advancing |
|
Every demographic was represented |
|
It was a rainbow coalition of dancing |
|
Whoa ! |
|
Everyone was wearing fingerless gloves |
|
Whoaaaaaoaaaaaoh ! |
|
I saw a spanish guy doing the Bartman |
|
Transport now to an old folks home |
|
Where the elderly are tossed on their brittle bones |
|
The orderlies are stealing there's no excuse |
|
Everyday for lunch they eat boiled goose |
|
So I grabbed my boombox and hit the turbo base |
|
And what happened next was a total disgrace |
|
Everybody started having sex |
|
The music was way too powerful |
|
A bunch of old people fucking like rabbits |
|
It was disgusting to say the least |
|
Oh! |
|
A boombox can change the world |
|
You gotta know your limits with a boombox |
|
This was a cautionary tale |
|
A boombox is not a toy |
