"The Category Stomp" lyrics
"The Category Stomp"
Now you put your right foot on the left
And you bring your left food down
With your hand in your pocket and your chin up high
You turn about half way 'round
Now don't do the double shuffle or the Jackson's drag
Cause you might be a-dancin' in an un-hip bag
It's a folk-country-disco tech-soft-rock-contemporary-abstract-expressionism-word-movie-flower-power-hard-ragging-neo-bluegrass-stoned-billy-dirty-boogie-freak-down-coming-on-jellybean-psychedelic stomp
Now you spread your knees and dance on your toes
And cross you finger on the end of your nose
Then drag your elbows down on the floor
And turn a somersault and then you do it once more
And then back in the middle with a Do-si-do
But a little more "si" and a little less "do"
Down on your belly with your knees up tight
And you roll out the door until you plumb out of sight
Now you put your right foot on the left
And you bring your left food down
With your hand in your pocket and your chin up high
You turn about half way 'round
Now don't do the double shuffle or the Jackson's drag
Cause you might be a-dancin' in an un-hip bag
It's a folk-country-disco tech-soft-rock-contemporary-abstract-expressionism-word-movie-flower-power-hard-ragging-neo-bluegrass-stoned-billy-dirty-boogie-freak-down-coming-on-jellybean-psychedelic stomp
