Chromeo - Old 45s

Dudes'll step to you with a corny line
Asking for your name, saying, "what's your sign?"
You turn around like, "boy, quit talking to me"
Yeah

He could pick you up in a limousine
You'd look back like, "what you mean?"
Just worry about more important things

Boys are non-committal
Always in the middle
It bothers you a little
Bothers you a little
Why can't we be like mom and dad?

You don't wanna settle
But didn't you get the memo?
You only get a date if you're walking in stilettos
This is enough to drive you mad

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back to me

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back to me

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and dance with me

You're out of luck, maybe out of touch
You only see schmucks
And you've really had enough
It's not adding up and you just don't understand

A straight shooter, he's a straight shooter
Cut to the chase and he asked if he could do ya
P.S. he had a ring on his left hand

Boys are non-committal
Always in the middle
It bothers you a little
It bothers you a little
Why can't we be like mom and dad?

You don't wanna settle
But didn't you get the memo?
You only get a date if you're walking in stilettos
This is enough to drive you mad

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back to me

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back to me

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and dance with me

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back

If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45s
Pop a nickel in it and dance with me
