  • (Huh, get a job, what for, I'm trying to think!)

    I was good, I could talk
    A mile a minute
    On this caffeine buzz I was on
    We were really hummin'
    We would talk every day for hours
    We belong to the deadbeat club
    Any way we can
    We're gonna find something
    We'll dance in the garden in torn sheets in the rain
    We'll dance in the garden in torn sheets in the rain
    In the rain

    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club

    Going down to Allen's for
    A twenty-five cent beer
    And the jukebox playing real loud
    "Ninety-six tears"
    We're wild girls walkin' down the street
    Wild girls and boys going out for a big time

    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club

    Let's go crash that party down
    In Normaltown tonight
    Then we'll go skinny-dippin'
    In the moonlight
    We're wild girls walkin' down the street
    Wild girls and boys going out for a big time
    Anyway we can
    We're gonna find something
    We'll dance in the garden in torn sheets in the rain
    We'll dance in the garden in torn sheets in the rain
    In the rain

    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)
    We're the deadbeat club (deadbeat club)

    Oh-oh no, here they come!
    The members of the deadbeat club
    (Deadbeat club)
    Oh-oh no, here they come!
    The members of the deadbeat club
    (Deadbeat club)
    Oh-oh no, here they come!
    The members of the deadbeat club
    (Deadbeat club)
    Oh-oh no, here they come!
    The members of the deadbeat club Writer/s: Cindy Wilson, Fred Schneider, Kate Pierson, Keith Strickland
