Year Of The Tan - Lyrics - Imperial Teen

Imperial Teen is a San Francisco-based indie pop group made up of Roddy Bottum primarily on guitar vocals, Will Schwartz primarily on guitar vocals, Lynn Truell primarily on drums and backing vocals, and Jone Stebbins primarily on bass and backing vocals. Imperial Teen became known for their boy girl harmonies and for all four members switching off on instruments during shows.

[Will's vocal] I can shake a stick at all the living Got two holes in my hands It's not enough to feed a nation I'm not just another fan I see you looking at the living Put it back in your pants Do you need an invitation? Mr. Wagon meet the band I gotta dance Shaking hips for a living It's the year of the tan Another Jagger imitation Doing Liza as a man No more waiting, time for living Drinking wine in a can It's my latest incarnation Sweaty tickets in my hand [Lynn's vocal] Hey wait a minute I think I need a sec I just wanna sit right here I don't feel so good in this dress Take a minute take a look at me Tell me, tell me what you think you see Do I give off a bubble effect? Think I need another cigarette Don't wanna Take it easy I don't wanna dance Maybe later I'll be feeling good Maybe greater than I thought I could Something subtle gets me something sweet Time with me isn't a two way street Buying into the beauty myth Telling everything, I'll take the fifth Let it out and let me live it up This isn't fun, I think I'll give it up I don't wanna Take it easy I don't wanna dance Don't wanna Sit down here and watch me eat to the beat Maybe later I'll be feeling good Maybe greater than I thought I could Possibilities I can't ignore C'mon baby let's get on the floor
