and we like what you say
you got things we should learn
and we like what you're doing
you got speed to burn
and you look so cool
and you look so fine
and you know where we live
come on, drop us a line

yeah, you look so groovy
and the chicks all scream
it's like a 60's movie
you know the one i mean
and you look so cool
and you look so hot
and you look so wasted
and, baby, i know why

take my money
take my time
take my sister
i don't mind

    General Comment:wikipedia says:
    Matt Hollywood claims that Anton wrote the song about how he likes The Dandy Warhols, and goes on to discuss how Anton even borrowed elements of The Dandy Warhols' sound. This refutes the popular opinion that the song was a scathing, literal attack and now shows the true friendship between the two bands.

    General Comment:I love this song! BJM are a great band. So are the Dandys. I've partied with both bands, and they are both a lot of fun. This song was just a stab at the Dandys. No different than John Lennon and Paul McCartney's musical bickering back in the day.

    General Comment:I hope everyone knows that the title is a response to the dandy warhols song about andtons drug use called "Not if you were the last junkie on earth"

    the last paragraph is directly about the dandys using the bjm house for a photoshoot...as mentioned in DiG!

    General Comment:Brutal.

    You have to love how they even parody the Dandys' musical approach with the "Ba ba ba!"s and the "woo-hoo-hoo!"s
