[Slap Upright Bass Intro] ONE! TWO! [Pause] ha ha ha ha ooh ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR! [Full Band Kicks In] [Verse 1] Friday night on Pacific Hear the hot rods rolling in Candy says I'm getting stupid I just turn around and grin Victory rolls and rolled-up jeans Old tattoos and gasoline Some lousy band is playing loud Yeah, this is my kinda crowd [Snare Crack] [Pre-Chorus] Turn it up Let it roll Slap that bass Lose control Old cars Fast songs THIS IS WHERE I BELONG! [Chorus] HOT RODS! (HEY!) LOUD BANDS! (HEY!) Santa Cruz on a Friday night DOUBLE BASS! (HEY!) FIST FIGHTS! (HEY!) Everything just feels alright I don't need your fancy scene Give me grease and gasoline HOT RODS! LOUD BANDS! SANTA CRUZ TONIGHT! [Rockabilly Guitar Break] [Verse 2] There's a chopped-up Ford out front Flathead making too much noise Some girl leaning on the hood Laughing with the tattooed boys Old guitars and busted amps Band stickers stuck on parking signs Jamie pounding on the snare Candy's guitar cuts through the air HEY! [Snare Fill] [Pre-Chorus] Turn it up Let it roll Slap that bass Lose control Old cars Fast songs THIS IS WHERE I BELONG! [Chorus] HOT RODS! (HEY!) LOUD BANDS! (HEY!) Santa Cruz on a Friday night DOUBLE BASS! (HEY!) FIST FIGHTS! (HEY!) Everything just feels alright I don't need your fancy scene Give me grease and gasoline HOT RODS! LOUD BANDS! SANTA CRUZ TONIGHT! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] After midnight hit the diner Three black coffees, fries to share Candy's talking roller coasters Jamie doesn't seem to care Someone fires a small block up Everybody turns around Chrome is shaking under streetlights God, I love that sound [Band Stops] You know what? This song needs more bass. [Fast Slap Bass — Wild and Showy] [Jamie Joins — Snare and Rimshots] [Candy — Hollow-Body Guitar Stabs] [Everything Gets Faster] WOOOOOOOO! [Band Slams Back In] [Bridge] I don't need a velvet rope Don't need somewhere cool to go Give me people being weird And a band nobody knows Give me engines Give me noise Give me somewhere I can be No pretending No permission JUST MY FUCKING SCENE! [Final Chorus — Faster] HOT RODS! (HEY!) LOUD BANDS! (HEY!) Santa Cruz on a Friday night DOUBLE BASS! (HEY!) FIST FIGHTS! (HEY!) Everything just feels alright I don't need your fancy scene Give me grease and gasoline HOT RODS! LOUD BANDS! SANTA CRUZ TONIGHT! [DRUMMER Goes Off On The Snare] HOT RODS! (HOT RODS!) LOUD BANDS!
