Shake and Pop

Lyrics

They went and cut the record, the record hit the chart
 And someone in the newspaper said it "was art"
 Disco Cassanova said "it's heavy on the riff"
 The local teeny bopper band was playin' it to death
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 The telephones are ringing, the boys are getting hot
 They're jetting out to Rio and some other sunny spots
 Some senoritas say "The singers sound terrific"
 Their personal appearances are stopping the shops
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Hey long distance its a rock and roll romance
 CBS is going to pay a great big advance
 Hey Atlantic come on take chance
 Arista say they "love you but the kids can't dance to it"
 They cut another record, it never was a hit
 And someone in the newspaper said it "was shit"
 The drummer is a bookie, the singer is a whore
 The bass player's selling 'cause he never would have won
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Hey long distance its a rock and roll romance
 CBS is going to pay a great big advance
 Hey Atlantic come on take chance
 Arista say they "love you but the kids can't dance to it"
 They cut another record, it never was a hit
 And someone in the newspaper said it "was shit"
 The drummer is a bookie, the singer is a whore
 The bass player's selling 'cause he never would have won
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
 Shake and pop, shake and pop
