Shim Sham Songtext / Lyric

We had a party at the Shim Sham club

Youth in motion doubled up the buzz

Back and forth and back and in between

We sang and danced; the band was Rock*A*Teen (Oh oh)

Delinquent girls, we stayed up all night (Oh oh oh oh)

Spray-painting walls under suburban lights (Oh oh)

Then and now seems like a different scene (Oh oh oh oh)

We lived to live, whatever's meant to be



So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)






Driving to and from a favorite city (Oh oh)

Sharing stories of celebrity (Oh oh oh oh)

A break in time left irresistible space (Oh oh)

Filled in by punk rock and a storefront face



So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)



We had a party at the Shim Sham club

Youth in motion doubled up the buzz

Then and now seems like a different scene

Still live to live, whatever's meant to be (Oh oh)

Hung out on staircases in dirty places (Oh oh oh oh)

Looking for the next of many faces (Oh oh)

On the path less taken we were meeting (Oh oh oh oh)

Making friends for life in memory's keeping



So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)

So pretty, so pretty, so pretty

Oh oh oh oh (Oh oh)
