Don't blame my mother
Don’t want to blame my mother’s father
Let’s hit the blotter
And maybe we can vibe about it
I met her daughter
I took her to my fancy parlor
We played Madonna
Then I threw on Tame Impala
We often wonder
Does one foot tapping sound like thunder?
It’s not a bummer
No, it’s the banger of the summer
Don’t let it simmer
It's time for us to eat our dinner
We’re fully rockin’
We’re rollin’ and we couldn’t stop it
Human feet
Carry me on the floor
Tap in place
Shake your bones Dancing days
Move your feet
Rock n Roll dies with us
It’s ok
It’s human fate
Don’t give up on it
No, We ain’t rockin on and off it
So tell your mama
To get down on and discorama
We’re getting closer
Another song is almost over
We fade it over
The turntables are fully loaded
All the stars in the skies are
All meant to align
So if I pass you by
You don’t need to blink a second eye
Human feet
Carry me On the floor
Or tap in place
Shake your bones Dancing days
Move your feet
Rock n Roll dies with us
It’s ok
It’s human fate
