Manu Chao
Rock’n’roll Band
All you boys and girls of the wide world if you wanna take it higher (Higher)
If you wanna take a chance, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If 'chu want ('chu want)
To dance (To dance)
Take a chance
Stressin' town with a dirty sound
Playin' in my room
Heard from the moon (Let's dance)
Bass player's gone yesterday
That junky was sick
There's no way (No way to dance)
Hey, Johnny the rat, you're getting' fat
Better move your ass (And do the bass)
This is (Maybe, euh, a rock'n'roll) band!
300 miles from the next show
So far from the scene, no gasoline (Gasoline, gasoline)
The show's over and the boss, he says
"Those kids were drunk" ("They sounded like monkeys")
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
Let's dance
Upside down, everybody dance
But Big Bug says, "Won't give you a cent"
Fuck off!
Girls around are ready for fun
A jealous guy, he's drunk
Holdin' a gun! (Gun, gun, gun)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
If you wanna dance (dance, dance)
Let's dance
You want! To dance! Take a chance!
You want! To dance! Take a chance!
You want! To dance! Take a chance!
You want! To dance!
There's your chance!
