lyrics

Put the beat on the floor
I’ve been known to cut a rug or two
Cuz if you don’t dance
You don’t stand a chance
Girls want a boy who’s got something to prove
It ain’t about your skill set
Can’t be afraid to act the fool
Cuz if you don’t care
You don’t feel the stares
I’m telling you, son
That kind of confidence is cool

Maybe I don’t understand your scene
I’m the last to arrive and always the first to leave

So, don’t be calling it a comeback
Tell you the truth, it never went away
You need a little bump to getcha over the hump
Go ahead and put both feet in the grave
The party’s over, the music lied
The lights come up
You’ve got glitter in your eyes
Was it really so necessary to celebrate good times?
Come on!

You know, I’ll never mind the bollocks
I wanna riot
I wanna riot
Not in my home
I don’t need to put you down
Lately, you’ve been runnin’ around
Like a one-trick pony in a two-horse kind of town

Check out Mr. Big Stuff
Struttin’ like the king of the nighttime world
Rockin’ purple polyester
Chester the Molester
I’ve got no problem with the player – oh no
Cuz I don’t have to play the game
When the money’s all gone and the mood is wrong
Some things should never stay the same

I’m not saying it’s a big mistake
If it keeps on raining the levee’s gonna break
Better shake your ass to higher ground

Go on and get back where you need to be
You were young, alive, wild, and free
In your happy place
Where everything adores you
I don’t understand your scene
I’m the last to arrive and the first to leave
No, don’t you waste my time
Put the beat on the floor
