They Might Be Giants - Celebration lyrics

First, the DJ must power up the amplifiers To play a record, select an album and put it on the turntable The racer must attach five dollars to their car and drive to the DJ booth Signal the DJ by ringing the bell I see that Banksy left a Post-it note for Anonymous, for Anonymous It seems the after-party has been moved to your house, to your house It's a special night of anticipation The moonbeams strong on the old band shell Celebration You're a little bit better and ready for some Celebration Some time to get louder and not by yourself I see that someone left their cheat sheet by this microphone, by this microphone I think the rock 'n roll girls in this world want apologies, want apologies I read this stuff, but I don't believe it I'd change it 'round, but I don't know how Celebration You're a little bit better and ready for some Celebration Some time to get louder and not by yourself Perpetrators of invisible crimes Our only magistrate sits in our minds The audience cheers as some people attack The secret smile of security guards You hear the cataclysmic discharge of the optimist, of the optimist And the unlikely crowd a**embled here's like Hieronymus, Bosch Hieronymus It's hard to see from this elevation But looking up, you can set it off Celebration You're a little bit better and ready for some Celebration Some time to get louder and not by yourself
