The Hop
Aerosmith · Done With Mirrors
In the ladies powder room
Brother's like a howlin' wolf
By the light of the silvery moon
Joey's like a Pavlovs dog
When he starts to salivate
A Harley Man gets off his hog
to shake his rattlesnake
Me I got a brand new babe
You know that something just ain't right
I say yeah yeah
Can't stop rockin' tonight
Hangin' at the shopping mall
With a watchman full of sass
Leave your smile outside the door
'Cause the kids be kickin' ass
My old boot heels be smokin'
You really got to understand
We're burning down the town tonight
A when the new shit hits the fan
And me I got a brand new baby
You know something just ain't right
I say yeah yeah
Can't stop rockin' tonight
Yeah yeah
Can't stop rockin' tonight
Layin' on her back tonight
To watch the moon eclipse
Baby eatin' out tonight
But I just ain't leavin' tips
So y'all best watch out what you do
And who you do it with
'Cause you'll be kickin' ass tonight
With the boys in Aerosmith... yeah
