"Roto-Rooter" lyrics - BOOTSY'S RUBBER BAND
If you feel all wrapped up
And you can't stay on the beat
Dance in your head you feel
But you cannot move your feet
Say you don't understand
What's happenin' to the groove
Don't fret my funkateers
You shall be made to move
Who do you call when your feet won't move
And you need a shot of rhythm and blues
Tell me who do you call, baby
(Call the) Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
Who do you call when you're all fired up
And you can't seem to burn the mother down
Tell me who do you call, baby
Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
Who do you phone when the radio's on
And the music keeps turning you over, baba
Tell me who do you call, baba
Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
I got my snake in my hand
They call me the clean-up man
(Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter)
And away goes troubles down (the drain)
Who do you call when you want what you want
And nobody give you what they need, nobody
Tell me who do you call, baba
Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
Who do you call when you're all tuned in
And the people keep freakin' you out
Tell me who do you call, baby
Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
I got my snake in my hand
They call me the clean-up man
(Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter)
And away goes troubles down (the drain)
Your cosmic drain, baba
Roto-rooter, baba, I'm your fix it man.
Do we have any shake charmers in the house tonight?
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon
Oh snake charmin' music, baba.
If you feel all wrapped up
And you can't stay on the beat
Dance in your head you feel
But you cannot move your feet
Say you don't understand
What's happenin' to the groove
Don't fret my funkateers
You shall be made to move
Who do you call when you're all fired up
And you can't seem to burn the mother down
Tell me who do you call, baby
Who do you call when your feet won't move
And you need a shot of rhythm and blues
Tell me who do you call, baby
(Call the) Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
Baba, Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter
In the pocket
Right there dead in the socket
In the pocket
Right there dead in the socket
Oh so nicety. I call it N-I-C-E-T-Y, nicety.
Oh let me fix your socket. I'm an electrician,
Too, baba. Nicety, N-I-C-E-T-Y, baba, nicety.
Your friendly fit it man, nice-ty, nicety.
Roto-rooter, troubleshooter, baba.
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon
Who do you call, who do you call
Who do you call, who do you call
I got my snake in my hand
They call me the clean-up man
(Roto-rooter, baba, troubleshooter)
And away goes troubles down (the drain)
And away goes troubles down the drain
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon
Don't be alarmed, baby, it's just mu snake.
Do we have any snake chambers in the house tonight?
Make my snake tame.
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon
Who do you call? Me!... on my stereo. They're
Funkin' with my beat.
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Hey little girl
Won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon
