Boys in the Band Lyrics by Jinkx Monsoon

The Ginger Snapped

2018

Jinkx Monsoon:
She's not too big on country
Nor I on R and B soul
Amanda Palmer:
We can't even come to terms on the right Rock and Roll
Jinkx:
She likes to call me stupid, I like to call her dumb
Amanda:
'Cause I'm into MPR
She's into VH1
(You think you're so smart)
Jinkx:
There ain't a lot on which we agree but one thing brings us together, babe
Jinkx and Amanda:
We like the boys in the band
Jinkx:
That's where we take our stand, girl
We like the boys in the band
You wanna join our stand, boy?
To some they're poison but, we like the boys in the band
Amanda:
I love your emo haircut, the concert all the rage
Oh my god shoes
Jinkx:
But we really wanna see what you're keeping backstage
(Marky (?) said you had VIP tickets)
Amanda:
It doesn't matter the voice or how you play the guitar
(Amanda: So did you always want to be a musician?) (Jinkx: I saw him first!)
Jinkx:
Just one good look at your face and we know, we know, we know, we know you're gonna go far
On other things we never see eye to eye but lemme tell you the truth babe
We like the boys in the band
That's where we take our stand, girl
We like the boys in the band
You wanna join our stand, boy?
We like the boys in, we like the boys in the band
Amanda:
Mister drummer would you let me be your own?
I'm cold and tired and I'm never going home
Jinkx:
Lead guitarist would you let me be your own?
I'm cold and tired and I'm never going, never going
*Instrumental break*
(So is your hair like, naturally green?)
One, two, one,two, FUCK YOU!
Jinkx: and Amanda
We'll take you old school punk yeah, drama geeks too
Yeah you can rock with The Ramones or Avenue Q, American Idols barber shop troops
In your pre-torn jeans and your three piece suits, now you Beethoven boys yeah you got it right
We'll make our own moonlights and nod out tonight
You think baby you're fans with these oldies bands(?)
You know we're done do-be-do done, done with it
Jinkx:
There ain't a lot on which we agree but one thing brings us together babe
We like the boys in the band
That's where we take our stand, girl
We like the boys in the band
You wanna join our stand, boy?
We like the boys in, we like the boys in the band
Amanda:
Back up vocals will you let me be your own?
I'm cold and tired and I'm never going home
Jinkx:
Second keyboard will you let me be your own?
I'm cold and tired and I'm never going, never going, never going home
We like the boys in the band (x8)
