Lyrics

Worry the bottle, Mama, it's grapefruit wine Kick off your high-heel sneakers, it's party time The girls don't seem to care what's on As long as they play till dawn Nothin' but blues and Elvis And somebody else's favorite song Give her some funked-up Muzak, she treats you nice Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice The girls don't seem to care tonight As long as the mood is right No static at all No static, no static at all FM, no static at all Give her some funked-up Muzak, she treats you nice Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice The girls don't seem to care tonight As long as the mood is right No static at all No static, no static at all FM, no static at all
