Sophisticated Boom Boom (2001 from "In a Paper Suit" - In the Red Records - ITR 025)

Well I was walking down the street and it was getting mighty late

The truth of the matter is that this

Poor girl was abandoned by her date

When from out of nowhere there came some music loud and clear

From over there?

Well I opened up the door and much to my surprise

The girls were wearing formals and the boys were wearing ties

And I think that I should mention the band stood at attention

Looking all so neat as they played their swinging beat

Just then a little boy came strutting across the room

I asked, "What's that?" He said, "Sophisticated boom boom!"

That's long overdue

Sophisticated boom boom

We're all looking for something new

Sophisticated boom boom

So stand up straight and tall like your back's against the wall

Take two steps forward, swing your hips, boom, boom

Well that's not sounding too sophisticated to me

Send them back to charm school

That's long overdue

Way overdue

Sophisticated boom boom

We're all looking for something new

I do believe they've blown their cool

Sophisticated boom boom

So stand up straight and tall like your back's against the wall

Take two steps forward, swing your hips, boom, boom, boom
