Hey DJ
Suburban Legends Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fat man at the bar
Said this is where they come and dance
Ladies all get drunk and shake their ants out of their pants
Always looking for a fella
Always aiming to impress
The ones they fall in love with are the ones that dance the best

Ladies screaming everywhere
Now what's a boy to do
Had them at my finger tips
With every nasty move
Show me yours, I'll show you mine
Everything will be just fine tonight

Hey hey DJ
Come on spin the record 'round
I know that I've got the moves to bring this disco down
Hey hey DJ
Come on play the record I like
Ain't no stoppin' body rockin'
'Til the morning light

Push push push
Comes to shove shove shove me
On the dance floor lovin' shake it all or nothin'
She wants to please me
She wants to tease me
Ain't no time for dirty tricks so get down get down

Ladies screaming everywhere
Now what's a boy to do
Had them at my finger tips
With every nasty move
Show me yours, I'll show you mine
Everything will be just fine tonight

Hey hey DJ
Come on spin the record 'round
I know that I've got the moves to bring this disco down
Hey hey DJ
Come on play the record I like
Ain't no stoppin' body rockin'
'Til the morning light
Shake it shake it
Break it break it
Give it all you got come on don't fake it
Move it move it
Groove it groove it
Take you to the top and make you loose it

Na na na na na na na!
Na na na na na na na!

Hey hey DJ

I know that I've got the moves to bring this disco down
Hey hey DJ

Hey hey DJ
Come on spin the record 'round
I know that I've got the moves to burn this disco down
Hey hey DJ

Ain't no stoppin' body rockin'
'Til the morning light
Shake it shake it
Break it break it
Give it all you got come on don't fake it
Move it move it

Take you to the top before you loose it
