The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion's song Bellbottoms is an ode to the iconic clothing item of the 1970s. The song begins by introducing the audience to the bellbottoms, which the singer describes as "most groovy." The repetition of the word "bellbottoms" creates a catchy refrain that immediately grabs the listener's attention.
As the song progresses, the singer's enthusiasm for the bellbottoms becomes contagious, and he encourages the audience to "tell 'em" and "gotta have bellbottoms." The lyrics pay particular attention to the way bellbottoms accentuate a woman's figure, as the singer describes a woman with "down on her hips" who's "got them" and is part of the "Blues explosion." This description of the woman wearing bellbottoms is likely an attempt to convey the idea that bellbottoms are empowering and sexy on a woman's body.
Finally, the repetition of the phrase "I wanna dance" emphasizes the joyful and carefree spirit that the song's lyrics convey. The singer's enthusiasm for the bellbottoms is infectious, and the song serves as a reminder that fashion can be a way of expressing individuality and freedom.
