Story Behind The Song
I wrote most of the words while on a cruise to the Caribbean. All I heard at the discos there were the same dumb-as-rocks Top 40 cuts, that of course, every drunken lunatic was dancing along to. So I figured, if you can't beat em, join em. I picture old l
Song Description
A mix of Nord Lead & MicroKorg, and that funky water-drip sound in the chorus is some MIDI sound Bumblefoot came up with. All the horn sounds at the end are Bumblefoot having fun with a guitar synth (can't wait to try to pull this one off live!). And the

Lyrics
EL DISCO
Come on, get up, let's get down
Shoot your hands straight up & shake your booty round & round & round & round
Let's get musical
Queen of the dance floor, we want more
So show us why you are our queen
I'd sooner sing a song about a girl who likes to twirl
Then sing about a girl who left me nothing
And we're gonna get high
Ya know we're gonna get high
Ya know we're gonna get higher than we'll ever get
I wanna know why
That even if we try
We can't get high as the first night that we ever met
Fat lady in a hot tub
So hot, she's so hot, she's falling out of her top
She's a tidal wave, she's about to pop
Somebody get a mop
And we're gonna get high
Ya know we're gonna get high
Ya know we're gonna get higher than we'll ever be
I wanna know why
When I lay down & die
You'll play my song & sing along & you'll remember me
Space junkie
Who da funky people in the house?
Let me see ya getting funky
Soul Brother #1, are you having fun?
If you're not, I guess you oughta be
Space junkie
Who da funky people in the house?
Let me see ya getting funky
Soul Sister #1, are you having fun?
Then come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
