Shakes Lyrics - Hanoi Rocks

I went from London to Paris and then All the way to Bombay, yeah 

And strange things would happen to me every day 

One night I went out dancing, in a beer barrel by the bay 

Kids were dancing in a strange new way 

They sang, what we want we can't get, So we just try to forget 

It's a mean old world, And we need something to get away with 

We get the shakes, shakes, 'til all is a blur 

We get the shakes, shakes, our brains in a whirl 

Every boy and girl is shaking around the world 

Now I'm a shaking missionary, Got to get my message through, yeah 

Whatever it takes I'm gonna give them, shakes to all of you 

You'll be shaking in Detroit city, and on the beach of Waikiki 

I'm gonna drive you nuts, 'til you're shaking your butts, along with me 

'Cos what you want you can't get, So you must try to forget 

Well it's a mean old world, And you need something to get away with 

You got to shake, shake, 'til all is a blur 

You got to shake, shake, Your brain is a whirl 

Every boy and girl is shaking around the world
