Take a hold of your axe and try to pluck out this riff
Let your shoulders relax, you don't wanna be so stiff
Keep on going don't stop, take it over the top
Make each note really pop, squeeze out every last drop
Give it one final whop!
And yes, you're in the band
Turn a cello this way and it's practically like a bass
Pop the strings when the play and watch how you shred my face
Keep on rockin' each note, grab it right by the throat
Keep the rhythm afloat, don't forget to emote
And that's all that she wrote!
Baby you're in the band
If you play the piano, you can play the keys
So just loosen it up and strut your expertise
Take a look at this music and let your mind expand
You're in the band
Sit your butt at the skins and try to whack out a beat
Feel the groove in your pins, then slowly turn up the heat
With a rat-a-tat-tat on the bass and hi-hat
Make it juicy and fat, yes exactly like that!
And now shut it down flat
You're in the band
I need a couple of roadies, I need someone on tech
Who wants to be security?
Well how about being manager?
Is that something you could swing?
It means I'm putting you in charge of the whole damn thing!
We've got our band
Now repeat after me, I pledge allegiance to the band!
(I pledge allegiance to the band!)
And I promise to give Mr. Schneebly full command!
(I promise to give Mr. Schneebly full command!)
And with me in control of the band as a whole
We will rock and we'll roll, with our heart and our soul
If you're in raise your hand!
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band!
You're in the band!
We're in the band!
You're in the band!
We're in the band!
You're in the band!
