Verse 1
Well I was shakin’ and a-jivin’ in my old-school jeans,
Greased-back hair and a southern dream.
I had a twang in my voice, a curl on my lip,
Swingin’ my hips with a rockin’ grip!
Pre-Chorus
But somethin’ strange was startin’ to move,
A different beat, a poppin' groove.
My blue suede shoes began to glow
I said, “What’s this magic in my toe?!”
Chorus
I’m moonwalkin’ outta Memphis,
With a glitter in my stride!
From jailhouse rock to Billie Jean,
I’m takin’ that thriller ride.
I said uh-huh... hee-hee!
Can’t stop this funky pride
From blue suede to moonwalk,
I’m doin’ both sides!
Verse 2
I traded my guitar for a drum machine,
Got lasers flashin’ in every scene.
My voice went high, my moves got slick,
I’m doin’ toe-stands, baby, real quick!
Verse 3
Now I’m glidin’ on the stage with a single glove,
Crowds screamin’ loud, showin’ nothin’ but love.
I give ‘em spin kicks, I strike that lean,
Feelin’ like a King with a moonlight gleam.
Bridge
I didn’t lose the rock, I just found the pop,
With a beat so bad I can’t ever stop.
From Graceland halls to Neverland dreams,
I’m a rhinestone rocket on rhythm beams!
Break
Thank ya very much...
Hee-hee!
You ain't nothin' but a... groove machine!
Ow! Shamone, let’s rock this scene!
Final Chorus
I’m moonwalkin’ outta Memphis,
With sequins in my soul!
The King and the King of Pop
Rollin’ into one bold stroll.
I said ooh! (Shamone!)
Now I’m in control
From blue suede to moonwalk,
I’m on a rock 'n' soul roll!
Outro
Hee-hee! Uh-huh!
Thank ya, baby!
