about

This is a soundcheck.

lyrics

This is the sound check
Don’t let me interrupt your conversations and drinks
This is the sound check
This is not the part where you’ll be singing with me
This is the drum set
Please never mind the music if it’s louder than you
We haven’t started yet
So this is not a first impression that is up for review

And I. . . I . . . I. . . hope you can hear me in the back
So return to the ambiance that we just broke
We’re not officially rockin’ yet

It's still a sound check
It hopefully won’t make you leave for somewhere else
Cuz if you do that
We’d prolly have to rock out here all by ourselves.

And I... hope you can hear me in the back
So return to the ambiance I just broke
We’re not officially rockin’ yet

Oh testing , testing - one - two
One two
Turn me up until it feeds back
Three four
I hope that girl will hear the lyrics
Five six
She makes me nervous
so I’ll pretend I’m somewhere else..
Someone else, not so shy, not so quiet
Break it down.

This was the sound check
This was the part you should ignore
where all the levels are set
We hope you like it.
Cuz if you do I guarantee you ain’t heard nothin’ yet.

Oooh-uh-uh-oh
Thank you for lettin’ us play tonight
Oooh-uh-uh-oh
Turn it up turn it up until we don’t feel shy
Oooh-uh-uh-oh
Remember I’m a person not a stereo (tip jar)
Oooh -uh-uh-oh
I hope that you’ll enjoy the show
