Chromeo - Old 45s Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
Dudes just step to ya with a corny line
Asking for your name, saying what's your sign?
You turn around like boy quit talking to me

He could pick you up in a limousine
You'd look back like whachu mean
Just worried about more important things

Boys are non-committal
Always in the middle
It bothers you a little
Bothers you a little
Why can't we be like Mom & Dad?

You don't wanna settle
Didn't you get the memo
You only get a date if you're walking in stilettos
This is enough to drive you mad

[Chorus x3:]
If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45's
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back

[Verse 2:]
Write her up, maybe out of touch
You only see schmucks
And you've really had enough
It's not adding up and you just don't understand

Straight shooter, he's a straight shooter
Cut to the chase and he asked if he could do her
PS he had a ring on his left hand

Boys are non-committal
Always in the middle
It bothers you a little
It bothers you a little
Why can't we be like Mom & Dad?

Don't wanna settle
Didn't you get the memo
You only get a date if you're walking in stilettos
This is enough to drive you mad

[Chorus x2:]
If you think romance is dead and gone
Find an old jukebox full of 45's
Pop a nickel in it and it all comes back to me

    “I love that Danny and Arnold.... I’m gunna PRE!”

  30. C.... R....

    Hahaha. I’m 47 y/o and I get the 80’s vibe. I read that one is a Muslim and a the other a Jew. Only in America. Nothing but luv for these guys. Video is awesome. But I don’t get the ending. Where did the hot chic go. I really fucked this up—I’m lost. Hahahaha haha

  34. M.... ....

    Hey Chromeo, The Game Grumps send a message “You’re Welcome”

  35. D.... K....

    progress europe

  36. K.... G....

    Ohhhhh thanks to a co-worker who advised me to listen to this!!!! I did like it!!!! It has the 80's sound a bit of funky yay!!!

  37. R.... B....

    I'm getting sick of the industry trying to make us watch these disgusting sex change things that call themselves woman. Porn sites are full of em and they don't tell us, hoping you'll whack it to a man. Yes they're doing unbelievable things in plastic surgery today.

  38. A.... ....

    i uhh... i dont understand what the fuck is happening in any of this

  39. B.... E....

    This video is all wrong. In real life, that woman would be attracted to the type of guy John Heder plays in the video. Viva la clumsy, arrogant pimp scrawns!

  40. M.... A....

    Watching this because of the “put a record on” clip in the Game Grumps Best Of 2018 video. This song is incredibly catchy. Too bad it says “jukebox”, or “put a record on” would have actually worked pretty well.

  41. J.... P....

    Best Chromeo song of all time... and one of the best songs of all time in general. <---- that is a period

  42. B.... ....

    I discovered Chromeo's music and they are now my favorite. But man they have weird videos LOL

  43. N.... M....

    Okay, was gonna comment about Arin's rendition of this amazing track, but SERIOUSLY!? JON HEDER!? I thought I couldn't love you guys any more than I did, but you proved me wrong cold turkey.

  44. D.... ....

    Just Married...💜

  45. S.... T....

    Crank this song every time in the car. And I dance like a nut lol fuk it....!!!!!!

  46. j.... a....

    Hey I just noticed the guy at the bar that says come here often isn't he nepolio dynamite Jon heder

  47. F.... ....

    He just FUCKING STANDS THERE singing to her, it's so awkward

  48. S.... C....

    je suis fan de chromeo

  49. F.... L....

    Forever grateful to the Game Grumps for bringing me here...this song's been playing on loop in my head for the past several days

  50. y.... m....

    Came from GG but damn this is actually a kickass song

  51. W.... K....

    Шикарный трек)))

  52. B.... E....

    That chorus is definitely HAIM-ish.

  53. H.... D....

    Awesome !

  54. D.... M....

    Speed 1.25 is very better.

  55. D.... S....

    Wait, that’s HAIM sitting at the table...

  56. M.... K....

    Love this video 👍🏼

  57. H.... B....

    I wonder why nobody has asked the name of the model. Anybody? I want to marry her.

  58. K.... ....

    where the hell is this bar. invite please

  59. R.... A....

    Napoleon dynamite is the og

  60. f.... ....

    I'm not that crazy about this style of music, but the production is incredible and it's 100x better than the shit out there getting 100x more plays. This song is pretty decent actually.

  61. s.... ....

    Ha! HAIM.

  62. A.... f....

    This was me and my bandmate circa 2001

  63. t.... c....

    I love the end when Napolean Dynamite comes in and gets all "cool."That's just awesome.

  64. p.... ....

    HAIM spotted!

  65. H.... ....

    nailed it

  66. R.... ....

    Melania in her true environment...

  67. D.... L....

  68. s.... u....

    *put a record on... old 45s...*

  69. H.... O....

  70. R.... M....

  71. c.... y....

  72. s.... s....

  73. S.... ....

  74. T.... M....

    Moral of the story: Don't steal Napoleon's tots, or years later he'll steal your girlfriend for revenge.

  75. J.... ....

    Damn this album is 4 years old? I still remember this album dropping & this was my favorite song from day one! 😕

  76. A.... L....

    I Hear This Song At Work Every Single Day.... I Always Thought It Jammed Bit Never Thought It Was Chromeo... LOVE THIS

  78. J.... J....

    wtf John Heder though...hahahaha

  79. G.... H....

    I first discovered Chromeo shortly after I came out in 2007 and started dating my first boyfriend. They were played on LOGO, and my interest was sparked at first sight and listen. They've been the one band I've never gotten tired of listening to since, one of the funnest acts I've ever heard. Can't wait to see them live when they come to Pittsburgh.

  80. d.... ....

    GUEST GRUMPS!

  81. E.... S....

    sweet song

  82. M.... B....

    Chromeo fall back to you

  83. S.... N....

    Dudes'll just step to ya with a corny line
    Asking for your name, saying what's your sign?
