C'mon, baby, lemme show you where it's at
It's a place we gotta go
You can wear a ten-gallon flowerpot hat
Mmm, to The New Wave Rodeo

X would be the perfect band got New Wave Rodeo
Cowboys were bewildered last year when they had Devo
The year before, they had that guy from Uncle Tupelo
W-O-O-D, I Wood Bees

At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo

You can get dressed up like a weirdo or a cat
Because it's new wave, dontcha know?
You can get dressed up like a cowboy or a bat
To The New Wave Rodeo

People seemed to like it when they had B-52's
Everyone seemed okay with a Flock Of Seagulls too
Cowboys were bewildered when they had Kajagoogoo
W-O-O-D, I Wood Bees

At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo

Rodeo, rodeo
Rodeo, rodeo
Rodeo, rodeo
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

X would be the perfect band for New Wave Rodeo
Cowboys were bewildered last year when they had Devo
I hear next year, they're trying to get Elvis Costello
W-O-O-D, I Wood Bees

At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
At The New Wave Rodeo
