Exuberant yelling in the distance.

Ok.

Two bucks a ticket, got to get with it,
On the night they have the battle of the bands.
Shine up my new shoes, kick off my old blues,
The night they have the battle of the bands.

People comin' from miles around,
Up-, down-side of town.
a-People standin', they're holler'n' past.
Hopin' that the battle's gonna be a smash.

Alright. Hey!

Choose up a side, listen to the Blues,
Only ammunition that they ever, ever use.
On the night they have the battle of the bands.
On the night they have the battle of the bands.

a-Jump up and down, jump up on the stage,
People, well, they're dancin' regardless of their age.

Instrumental break with vocal stylings/screaming.

(Ooooo.)
People comin' from miles around,
Up-, down-side of town.
a-People standin', they're holler'n' past.
Hopin' that the battle's gonna be a smash.
Tonight they have the battle of the bands.

Short instrumental break with vocal stylings/screaming.

Yeah!
Tonight they... ooh...
Tonight they have the battle of the bands.
Tonight they have the battle of the bands.
Tonight they have the battle of the bands.
Tonight they have the battle of the bands.
Tonight.

Drum solo and vocal stylings to end.
