about

You need to light a dance fire under your feet? Dance Champion brings the heat!

lyrics

Heyo, I got a dance fire on my feet
Heyo, let’s put this sucker out!
Take off my steel toe boots
Tying up my dancing shoes
Getting up in my skin tight suit yeah
Jump in my ‘86 Chevy
Flying down the roadway baby
Coming up to the club little lady
Check it out

I’m the one who’s got the funkies
And I’m dancing like a king on cocaine
Now I’m the one who’s got the ladies
My moves have got them going crazy

Heyo, I see you checking out my skills
Heyo, I see you lookin... but you better be looking out!
Running man, you got that right
Worm, I’m wormin’ it tight
Turn up the heat on a Monday night yeah
Drinking the juice like a west coast rapper
Keeping it loose like a chiropractor
Don’t mean to be rude but shut your yapper
Lookie here

I’m the one who’s got the funkies
And I’m dancing like a king on cocaine
Yeah I’m the one who’s got the ladies
My moves have got them going crazy

You think you want some
Hah, you ‘aint got it
You think you need some
You ‘aint got it boy!

You wanna know my secret?
Too bad I ‘aint gonna tell it
There’s no benefit (to me)
You dudes you looking so angry
Angry that I’m taking all the ladies
Too bad I’m the one with the funkies

I’m the one who’s got the funkies
And I’m dancing like a king on cocaine
Now I’m the one who’s got your lady
Cause I’ve got the market on cool

Venturing into a unique soundscape, the Captain Starr sound can best be described as a blend of hard rock, funk, and groove elements, coupled with melodic vocal hooks. This 3-piece outfit was formed in mid-2005 by guitarist/vocalist Jonny Strides and soon found solidarity with bassist Joey Bauman, and drummer Matt Durante. Captain Starr has been laying down the goodness ever since. ... more
