"Pop Muzik"

— by M

 

Others have done this song (U2, et al), but there's nothing like M and the catchy way he and his girl offer this nonsensical feel-good ditty about — pop music. The video was great as well, and I can remember my girls, tiny as they were, leap up while watching MTV and dancing to this song, singing along.

This song is dedicated to simpler times and simpler enjoyments …

 

 

 

Get up …
Get down …

Pop, pop, pop muzik

Radio, video
Boogie with a suitcase
You're living in a disco
Forget about the rat race
Let's do the milkshake, you're selling like a hot cake
Try some, buy some, fee fie foe fum

Sing it in the subway
Shuffle with a shoe shine
Mix me a Molotov
I'm on the hit line
Wanna be a gun slinger, don't be a rock singer
Eenie meenie miney moe, which-a-way you wanna go

Dance in the street, anything you like
Do it in your car in the middle of the night

Dance in the super mart
Dig it in the fast lane
Listen to the countdown
They're playing our song again
I can't get "Jumping Jack," I wanna hold "Get Back"
Moonlight Muzak, knick knack paddywhack
