Stomp
Quincy Jones Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me introduce to you
A brand new dance I got for you
Stomp on, stomp on, stomp on
Stomp on, stomp on
Alright! That's nice!

Stomp your boot heels on the floor
Do the Geordie Stomp some more
Stomp on, stomp on, stomp on
Stomp on, stomp on
Alright! So nice!

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Next your hands go in the air
Shake 'em, snake 'em anywhere
Stomp on, stomp on, stomp on
Stomp on, stomp on
Alright! That's nice!

When the night comes to the end
You will find a brand new friend
Stomp on, stomp on, stomp on
Stomp on, stomp on
Alright! That's nice!

Stomp on, stomp on, stomp on




Stomp on, stomp on
Alright! That's nice!

Overall Meaning

In the song "Stomp" by Quincy Jones, the singer introduces a new dance to the audience. The opening lyrics “let me introduce to you a brand new dance I got for you” set the stage for a lively and fun dance. The chorus repeatedly encourages the audience to “stomp on” and dance along with the beat of the music. The Geordie Stomp, a popular dance craze in the UK in the 1970s, is referenced in the second verse. The focus on stomping and shaking continues in the third verse with a call to shake your hands in the air and “snake” them around.


The song’s lyrics seem to promote the idea of letting go and having fun. The line “when the night comes to the end, you will find a brand new friend” suggests that dancing and enjoying the night can bring people together and form new connections. The repeated use of the word “nice” also emphasizes the enjoyment and positivity of the experience.
