Lyrics Electric Six - The Rubberband Man

Hand me down my walkin' cane,
Hand me down my hat.
Hurry now and don't be late,
'Cause we aint got time to chat.

You and me, we're goin' out,
To catch the latest sounds,
Guaranteed to blow your mind,
So high you wont come down!

Hey, y'all prepare yourself,
For the rubberband man! (Rubberband man!)
You never heard a sound,
Like the rubberband man! (Never heard a sound!)
You're bound to lose control,
When the rubberband starts to jam! (And he likes to jam!)

Oh Lord, this dude is outta' sight,
Everything he does,
Seem to come out right!

Once I went to hear them play,
In a club outside of town.
I was so surprised, I was hypnotized,
By the sound this cat's puttin' down.
When I saw this short, fat guy,
Stretch a band between his toes,
Hey, I laughed so hard cause the man got down,
When he finally reached his goal!

Hey, y'all prepare yourself,
For the rubberband man, (Rubberband man!)
You never heard a sound,
Like the rubberband man, (Rubberband man! Rubberband!)
You're bound to lose control,
When the rubberband starts to jam! (And he likes to jam!)

Got that rubberband,
Up on his toes,
And then he wriggled it up,
All around his nose.

(Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo doo-doo)
Guaranteed to blow your mind!
(Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo doo-doo)
Playin' all that music, yet keepin' time,
(Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo doo-doo)
Where in the world did he learn that, oh Lord?
(Doo doo doo doo doo)
Lord, help him get away!

Hey, y'all prepare yourself, (Yeah!)
For the rubberband man,
You never heard a sound,
Like the rubberband man, (Rubberband man!)
You're bound to lose control,
When the rubberband starts to jam! (When he starts to jam!)

Band.
How much of this stuff do you think he can stand?
I don't know.
Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo doo-doo,
So much rhythm, grace and debonair from one man, Lord,
Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo doo-doo,
And then he had nerve to wiggle his left toe,
Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo doo-doo,
Rubberband man, rubberband man!
To his knee, got the feelin in his head, y'all,
Doo-doo doo-doo-doo-doo-doo,
Ah, come together now!

Hey, y'all prepare yourself,
For the rubberband man,
You never heard a sound,
Like the rubberband man, (Man!)
You're bound to lose control,
When the rubberband starts to jam! (When the rubberband man! Rubberband man!)
Hey, y'all prepare yourself, (Rubberband, rubberband, rubberband man, starts to jam!)
For the rubberband man,
You never heard a sound,
Like the rubberband man, (Rubberband man, starts to jam!)
You're bound to lose control,
When the rubberband starts to jam! (Just a movin', movin', movin'!)
Hey, 'yall prepare yourself,
For the rubberband man! (Rubberband man!)

Get down,
Huh!
Hey, get down lover,
Uh-huh!
