Lyrics

Yeah! Come on in, c'mon
 Fast, fast, fast! Come in, come in
 Quickly! Don't let anyone see you
 What's going on Mr. Schneebly?
 You want to know what's going on?
 I will let you know what is going on, little miss sunshine
 How come none of you told me you could play music?
 What difference does it make?
 What difference?
 I thought you all were a bunch of little douchebags
 But now I know that you're soul brothers and soul sisters
 You! Zack
 You ever play electric guitar?
 No, my dad won't let me
 Oh really?
 He thinks it's a waste of time
 Oh yea? Well, let's waste that time together, shall we?
 Take a hold of your axe and try to pluck out this riff
 
 That's good, that's good
 Now, let your shoulders relax, you don't wanna be so stiff
 Already better, yeah!
 Keep on going don't stop, take it over the top
 Squeeze out every last drop, make each note really pop
 Give it one final whop!
 And yes, you're in the band
 Uh, you! What is your name?
 Katie (Katie!)
 Turn a cello this way and it's practically like a bass
 ♪
 Pop the strings when the play and watch how you shred my face
 Woah, woah! Somebody find my face! She's shredding it off!
 Oh no, it's right here, it's right here
 Keep on rockin' each note, grab it right by the throat
 Keep the rhythm afloat, don't forget to emote
 And that's all that she wrote!
 Baby you're in the band
 Piano man!
 Laurence
 If you play the piano, you can play the keys
 I only play classical
 So just loosen it up and strut your expertise
 Take a look at this music and let your mind expand
 Woah, woo, woah, yes, yeah
 You're in the band
 Now, who is going to be my drummer?
 I play percussion
 Only because he's too stupid to play anything else
 Shut up! (Shut up!)
 Sit your butt at the skins and try to whack out a beat
 That's good, that's good for my grandma, who's uh, dead
 Feel the groove in your pins, then slowly turn up the heat
 Ay, now he's playing like my grandma who's alive! Alright
 With a rat-a-tat-tat on the bass and hi-hat
 Make it juicy and fat, yes exactly like that!
 And now shut it down flat
 
 You're in the band
 ♪
 I need a couple of roadies
 I need someone on tech
 Who wants to be security? (I will!)
 Can I be the stylist? (Check!) Yes!
 Mr. Schneebly, I still don't have a job
 Well how about being manager?
 Is that something you could swing?
 It means I'm putting you in charge of the whole damn thing!
 We've got our band
 Yes! Freddy, keep playing like that
 Katie, look at me, come in on G (where did it?)
 Yeah, just like that, exactly like that
 Zack, my man, look at me
 Crunchy chords high up on G
 Just like, just like
 Yeah, that's exactly what I'm looking for!
 Alright, Lawrence, take me to the moon, baby!
 Yes!
 Ladies, look at me and do everything I do
 Watch
 Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
 Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
 Now repeat after me, I pledge allegiance to the band!
 (I pledge allegiance to the band!)
 And I promise to give Mr. Schneebly full command!
 (I promise to give Mr. Schneebly full command!)
 And with me in control of the band as a whole
 We will rock and we'll roll, with our heart and our soul
 If you're in raise your hand!
 I'm in the band! (Yes!)
 I'm in the band!
 I'm in the band!
 I'm in the band! (Aw, my man!)
 I'm in the band!
 I'm in the band! (Yes!)
 You're in the band!
 We're in the band!
 You're in the band!
 We're in the band!
 You're in the band!
