Air Guitar

Lyrics

[Verse 1] See, I'm tryin' to explain what I do on the daily To ladies and gentlemen that stuck in the eighties Stuck in the Brady Bunch, they look at me crazy 'Cause I ain't playing the drums or the ukelele Nah, maybe I play the bass Or maybe I'm paid to take shape like Ricky Gervais And just stand up, demand your hands up Only understand if you ain't a fan of Hannah Montana Gotta laugh when they ask what my name is "You're famous, I know that band that you play in" "Who? Me? Nah that ain't me, wrong Drapht" I've been making my mark for playin' air guitar "I make more noise than heavy metal" [Chorus] Disregardin' me being an artist Didn't want to see me start Playin' the air guitar I play the air guitar And if anyone ask you Listen up on their behalf I play the air guitar I play the air guitar [Verse 2] Step on stage, the fans are rough 'Cause I move like Chuck Berry and Angus Young Genghis Khan killer with an invisible lacks You're living like Frank Zappa with a rhythm of Slash You riddle me this, little pivotal clap Those rats that called me wigger now listen to me rap Uh, okay, back in the day, remember back then? Didn't sound like back in the states, we had an accent I had an accent, yeah, I had an accent Sounded like the way that I spoke and that was actin' From a graffer to rappin' upon a beat I wanted to be a DJ, but scratchin' it wasn't cheap So I rapped to an industry, more of a convention Didn't have an instrument, you didn't get a mention Okay, our scene won't last Aha yeah, I get it, you rather me play the air guitar [Chorus] Disregardin' me being an artist Didn't want to see me start Playin' the air guitar I play the air guitar And if anyone ask you Listen up on their behalf I play the air guitar I play the air guitar [Verse 3] See, I got people tearin' down the walls Crowd surfin' like listenin' to rock and roll The whole crowd is boxed in, head bangin' like boxin' Danny Green, you lost it soon as the beat drops in Knocks him off the feet, gots to have it Rocking him back and then forth, complete madness You can imagine a man-made way People dancin' on site like it's Hussain's grave And my irate neighbours hated me doin' this Three AM and still playin' my music "Enough! You gotta stop turnin' it up!" "Nah, nah, you know that ain't me, I play the air guitar" "I make more noise than heavy metal" [Chorus] Disregardin' me being an artist Didn't want to see me start Playin' the air guitar I play the air guitar And if anyone ask you Listen up on their behalf I play the air guitar I play the air guitar I play the air guitar
