about

At this time bands like the New Bomb Turks were doing that Rock and Roll/ Punk rock thing, and it was all fairly popular, and lots of local bands were popping up doing that stuff. I thought it would be funny to write something that was like that, but still fit the pop stylings of the Chick Magnets. And this was the end result. I like all the yelling and screaming at the end. Pretty rock. - Ken

lyrics

We walk into the club you're holding my hand
Tell the guy at the door you're with the band
Everyone's asking me who's that chick
Cause I haven't had a date since '96

I'm feeling pretty suave can't you see
Cause the prettiest girl in the bar is sitting with me
Ain't love such a wonderful thing
You're wearing my leather I'm wearing your ring
At the punk rock show holding hands
All my friends don't understand

You make me feel like a rock star
Our eyes meet across the bar
You make me feel like a rock star oh yeah

In your cheetah dress looking real hot
I'm thinking I'm cool but really I'm not
But we can play the part tonight
Rock and roll romance all right

Give you a kiss before I get up to play
Feel like the world is turning my way
Ain't love such a wonderful thing
You're wearing my leather I'm wearing your ring
At the punk rock show holding hands
Why can't my friends understand

about

The Chick Magnets Vancouver, British Columbia

The Chick Magnets played from 1997 until 2002 (dates approx). Ken Insipid played Bass, Lucas Spinoff on Guitar, and the famous Mr. Plow on drums. The music was pop punk, like Buddy Holly meets the Ramones. Fun stuff: the melodies will get stuck in your head and the beat will get your toe a tappin.
