The B-52s

The B-52s, originally presented as the B-52's (with an apostrophe, was corrected for grammar in 2008), are an American new wave band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1976. The original lineup consisted of Fred Schneider (vocals, percussion), Kate Pierson (vocals, keyboards, synth bass), Cindy Wilson (vocals, percussion), Ricky Wilson (guitar), and Keith Strickland (drums, guitar, keyboards). Ricky Wilson died of AIDS-related illness in 1985, and Strickland switched from drums to lead guitar. The band has added various members for albums and live performances.

Remember when you held my hand
Remember when you were my man
Walk talk in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over, think it over
Roll it over in your mind 
Why don't you dance with me
I'm not no Limburger
Just a limburger 
Dance this mess around
Dance this mess around, 'round, 'round 
Everybody goes to parties
They dance this mess around
They do the Shu-ga-loo
Do the Shy Tuna
Do the Camel Walk
Do the Hip-o-crit 
Ah-Hippy Hippy forward Hippy Hippy
Hippy Shake, Hippy Shake 
Oh-it's time to do 'em right
Hey now, don't that make you feel a whole lot better?
Huh?
I say, don't that make you feel a whole lot better 
What you say?
I'm just askin' 
Shake-Bake-Shake-Bake 
Everybody goes to parties
They dance this mess around
They do all 16 dances
They do all 16 dances

Ah-Hippy Hippy forward Hippy Hippy
Hippy Shake, Hippy Shake 
It's time to do 'em right
Hey! Fred, now don't that make you feel a whole lot better now?
Huh? 
Say, don't that make you feel a whole lot better? 
What you say?
I'm just askin' 
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Dance, dance, dance this mess around
Dance this mess around 
Shake, shake-a-bake shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
Dance this mess around
