Synthesizers

Everybody's writing songs with synthesizers.
But I don't have a synthesizer.
I can still get down like
Duran Duran in 1985
I didn't name my band after an animal.
I don't have any feathers or neon clothes.
But I can stay out all night
Like Sacajawea in a paint fight.

For once, once in your life
Won't you do what feels right,
Instead of waiting for the next big compromise?
Stop running your mouth,
Get out of the house,
Get yourself downtown,
And shake it all out tonight.

I don't have any friends at Pitchfork or NME,
No sexy heroin addiction plaguing me,
But I can still get down like
Frank Poncherello on a motor bike... that's right

Once, once in your life
Won't you do what feels right,
Instead of waiting for the next big compromise?
Stop running your mouth,
Get out of the house,
Get yourself downtown,
And shake it all out tonight.

For once, once in your life
Won't you do what feels right,
Instead of waiting for the next big thing to strike?
Stop running your mouth,
Get out of the house,
Get yourself downtown,
And shake it all out tonight.
