lyrics

Well we got our things together and we were ready to go
Hit the open highway down the long lonesome road
We were thinking about the cat,
but leaving our worries at the doormat
By the time that we got there it was getting quiet late
We could hear the people rocking by the front gate
We knew it was gonna be fun
But the party had just began

I wanna take you higher, higher, higher, higher
C’mon baby we can blow your mind, with your underpants on fire
I wanna take you higher, higher, higher, higher
C’mon baby we can blow your mind, with your underpants on fire

Well we woke up in the morning with our heads in a daze
But it didn’t stop us rocking when we hit the main stage
There was people tapping their feet
And grooving on down to the beat
We did another show and more people rocked up
We were even able to tame some young teenage hearts
At the height of our stardom and fame
I didn’t want to stop the train

I wanna take you higher, higher, higher, higher
C’mon baby we can blow your mind, with your underpants on fire
I wanna take you higher, higher, higher, higher
C’mon baby we can blow your mind, with your underpants on fire

At this point we wanted to try something new
We tried wearing funky hats or taking off our shoes
We thought if we could burn our underwear on stage
That would be cool
We just did another gig and recorded it too

So we did our 7th gig in the space of 2 days
And our singer was feeling sick from his alcoholic ways
The crowd was thinning out
And the people started to doubt
Whether to come to our show on the final day
Will they return to form or fade away?
But they got there and waited in line
And baby we just blew their mind

I wanna take you higher, higher, higher, higher
C’mon baby we can blow your mind, with your underpants on fire
I wanna take you higher, higher, higher, higher
C’mon baby we can blow your mind, with your underpants on fire

Tim Woodz and the Dirty Shoes Melbourne, Australia

Tim Woodz composes stories into upbeat folk songs, singing playful tunes about possums on power lines, getting stuck in Laundromats and smart phone's that don’t work. He is an engaging oddball performer who has raised more eyebrows than a facial hair farm, with dignity and good fashion sense, so come shake a leg or two with Tim Woodz and the dirty shoes. ... more
