The Lonely Island - Boombox lyrics

Your rating:

(feat. Julian Casablancas)
[The Lonely Island] 

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 



[Julian Casablancas] 

Everything got outta control 

The music was so undressing 

Everyone got out on the floor 

It was a bunch of old white people dancing 



[The Lonely Island] 

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 



[Julian Casablancas] 

Then everyone started to move 

People rejoiced instead of financing 

Your preconcieved notions were shattered 

By the super old white people dancing 



[The Lonely Island] 

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 



[Julian Casablancas] 

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 



[The Lonely Island] 

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 



[Julian Casablancas] 

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
