Turn on the strobelight
Give it get it give it come on
Give it get it come on
The flash is hypnotic
It got me paralyzed
Give it get it give it come on

Filled with hot dimes
Give it get it give it come on
Give it get it come on
But there's only one up in here

And we gonna set it off
'Til the sunrise
