"Peer Pressure Dance" lyrics
Black Gryph0n & Baasik Lyrics
This is the dance
That makes everybody dance
It's called "The peer pressure dance"
This is how you do it, listen closely
Keep your arms at your sides
If you have pockets, put your hands inside of them
Bend your knees to the beat, and lightly bop your head
Try to find the delicate balance between not moving so much that you stand out
While also not standing completely still, which also makes you stand out
An expert at this dance will completely disappear, like a ninja
Or Harry Potter, when he puts on his invisibility cloak
Or your neighbor's cat that you ran over last week
I'm sorry Mrs. Pemberton, I don't know where your cat is, I swear
If someone at the party makes eye contact with you
Smile and slightly exaggerate your movements
Oh yeah, you love this song
As soon as they look away, go back to barely moving
You had a long day at your successful job
And now you're unwinding in a natural way, like a normal person
If people start singing along to the song, silently lip-synch the lyrics
If you don't know the lyrics, quickly pull out your phone
And act like you have something going on
That's way more important than singing this song
If someone manages to notice that you're doing the peer pressure dance
Don't worry, recent studies show that 98-percent of all people
Who are invited to parties by their extroverted friends
Do this dance, so you have nothing to feel guilty about
Like the guilt you feel for Mrs. Pemberton's cat
It just ran out in front of you, you had no time to react!
What were you supposed to do?
Sure, you were scrolling through Instagram at that time
But who doesn't do that?
Seriously, name one person who hasn't done that
If this is anybody's fault, it's Mrs. Pemberton's
Who lets their cat outside on a crowded street?
You should just tell her
Or, you should go to the animal shelter and find a cat that looks exactly like her cat
And give it to her and say that you found Sprinkles
She'll never know the difference, she might even give you some money
Of course, you're not doing it for the money, you're doing it to make Mrs. Pemberton happy
And you're doing it so you can sleep at night
Without nightmares of Mrs. Pemberton watching
As her precious cat gets crushed under your tires
Watching its head pop like a grapefruit under a sledgehammer
Oh, oh, gosh, there's blood everywhere, there's so much blood
I tried to give it CPR but, there's no mouth, there's no mouth
That makes everybody dance
It's called "The peer pressure dance"
This is how you do it, listen closely
Keep your arms at your sides
If you have pockets, put your hands inside of them
Bend your knees to the beat, and lightly bop your head
Try to find the delicate balance between not moving so much that you stand out
While also not standing completely still, which also makes you stand out
An expert at this dance will completely disappear, like a ninja
Or Harry Potter, when he puts on his invisibility cloak
Or your neighbor's cat that you ran over last week
I'm sorry Mrs. Pemberton, I don't know where your cat is, I swear
If someone at the party makes eye contact with you
Smile and slightly exaggerate your movements
Oh yeah, you love this song

And now you're unwinding in a natural way, like a normal person
