Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 Imagine in your mind a posh country club

 The stuffy old money where the poor get snubbed

 The spread is bland sauerkraut and boiled goose

 There's no way these people will ever cut loose

 But then I walk in the room, hold my boombox high

 And what happened next, will blow your mind

Chorus

Everything got outta control

 The music was so entrancing

Everyone got out on the floor

 It was a bunch of old white people dancing

 The Big Apple, where people never dance

Spirits go down while profits expand

 The cops or the dealers, who's got the juice

 The street vendors peddling their boiled goose

 So many types of people will never get along

 Till I bust out my boombox and play this song

Chorus

The music washed away all the hate

 And society started advancing

 Every demographic was represented

 It was a rainbow coalition of dancing

Whoa

Everyone was wearing fingerless gloves

Whoah oh

 I saw a Spanish guy doing the Bartman

Transport now to an old folks home

 Where the elderly are tossed on their brittle bones

 The orderlies are stealing, there's no excuse

Everyday for lunch they eat boiled goose

 So I grabbed my boombox and hit the turbo base

 And what happened next was a total disgrace

Chorus

Everybody started having sex

 The music was way too powerful

 A bunch of old people fucking like rabbits

 It was disgusting to say the least, oh

 A boombox can change the world

 You gotta know your limits with a boombox

This was a cautionary tale

 A boombox is not a toy
