Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get down
Radio, video
Boogie with a suitcase
Your livin' in a disco
Forget about the rat race
Let's do the milkshake, sellin' like a hotcake
Talk about, pop musik
Talk about, pop musik
Shoobie doobie do wop
I want to dedicate this
Pop pop shoo wop
Everybody made it
Shoobie doobie do wop
Infiltrate it
Pop pop shoo wop
Activate it
New York, London, Paris, Munich
Everybody talk about pop musik
Talk about, pop musik

Pop pop pop pop musik
Singing in the subway
Shuffle with a shoe shine
Fix me a molotov
I'm on the headline
want to be a gun slinger
Don't be a rock singer
Eenie meenie mynie moe
Tell me where you want to go
Talk about, pop musik

The song "Pop Muzik" by M. Ciccone/S. Pettibone is a classic example of disco-pop music. The lyrics are playful and full of joyful energy. The opening lines, "Get up, get down," immediately establish the song's dance-worthy tune. The song then talks about the radio, video, and essentially everything that makes up pop music. The lyrics encourage listeners to forget about the worries of the world and dance to the beat. The milkshake and fee-fi-fo-fum lines suggest buying and trying everything there is to offer. The song takes the listener on a roller coaster ride of fun lyrics and a catchy beat.
