#180. Twerkin' With The Weeknd

If anyone missed Covid Bowl LV, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 31-9.  But it was the halftime extravaganza which stole the show.  The Weeknd performed some kind of disco zombie montage celebration.  

I wouldn't recommend watching all the hard-choreography filth in its entirety, but Canadian singer 31 year old Abel Makkonen Tesfaye does have that one catchy song Blinding Lights.  If anything, the rhythm does lend itself to a teenage Bar Mitzvah twerk-a-thon.

Twerkin’ With The Weeknd
sonofsaf

Everyone's fucking, butt gang bangs aren’t for you
Everyone's shitting on you, oh
Everyone's pissing, the urine of Bud Light
Everyone's kicking your ass tonight, ass tonight

Everybody's twerkin’ with the Weeknd
Everybody wants to learn to dance
Everybody's goin' to get naked
Everybody put back on your pants, oh
You like the smell of my fart
You better hope I don’t shart
You want the bartender Moe
Szyslak “Flaming Moe” GO!

Everyone's listening to see if it’s fake news
Everyone wants friends but no Jews
Everyone's hating the band called No Doubt
Everyone's waiting to stand up and shout
Everybody's twerkin’ with the Weeknd
Everybody wants to learn to dance
Hey, hey
Everybody's goin' to get naked
Everybody put back on your pants, oh

You like the smell of my fart
You better hope I don’t shart
You want the bartender Moe
Szyslak “Flaming Moe” GO!
Hey
You like the smell of my fart
You better hope I don’t shart
You want the bartender Moe
Szyslak “Flaming Moe” GO!

You like the smell of my fart
You better hope I don’t shart
You want the bartender Moe
Szyslak “Flaming Moe” GO!

Workin’ For the Weekend
Loverboy

Everyone's watching, to see what you will do
Everyone's looking at you, oh
Everyone's wondering, will you come out tonight
Everyone's trying to get it right, get it right

Everybody's working for the weekend
Everybody wants a new romance
Everybody's goin' off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance, oh
You want a piece of my heart
You better start from the start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby let's go

Everyone's looking to see if it was you
Everyone wants you to come through
Everyone's hoping it'll all work out
Everyone's waiting they're holding out
Everybody's working for the weekend
Everybody wants a new romance
Hey, hey
Everybody's goin' off the deep end
Everybody needs a second chance, oh

You want a piece of my heart
You better start from the start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby let's go
Hey
You want a piece of my heart
You better start from the start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby let's go

You want a piece of my heart
You better start from the start
You wanna be in the show
Come on baby let's go 

Never seen Loverboy.  When I was a teenager, they came to the Civic Arena three times in the early/mid 80's.  For some reason, I think they'd be well-suited to open for Foreigner and REO Speedwagon on one of those retro summer amphitheater tours.  You know... where all the 50 year olds in the crowd show their adult children how they used to "get down."  Less cowbell, some cornhole, more air guitar.

In my original parody, there was a stanza about eating a Turky Reubn, but I decided to stay on point.  Lyrically speaking, the syllable progressions are pretty spot-on.  Has decent karaoke potential as just about everyone's familiar with this melodic Loverboy anthem.

Please do not share this information with the National Football League, anyone affiliated with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, anyone affiliated with the Kansas City Chiefs, The Weeknd, and/or musicians who deliberately misspell their name in a blatant attempt harness the power of the internet with improved search engine results.  Hey, these days, there's a legitimate reason you shouldn't name your band something generic like  Filter, The Cars, The Doors, and so on and so forth.  Think about it.
