Yeah, the songs are outdated, lyrically, but they still kick some serious ass.

"Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1999"
-Prince (yeah, this is the obvious one)

"Let's all meet up in the year 2000/ Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown?"
-Pulp ("Disco 2000"... and the song that inspired this thread)

Whadda you got?

M-a-g-i-c see you on the court
Buck has come to play his way and his way is to thwart
M-a-g-i-c magic of the buck
Other teams pray for dreams
But he don't give a fuck
Penetrating the lane like a bullet train
Comes the magic blood a telepathic brain
Knucklehead suckers better duck
When the buck comes through like a truck
Scott stops pops and drops it in
On his way back gets a little skin
From the hand of a man named S. C. Green
Slam so hard break your TV screen
Worthy's hot with his tomahawk
Take it to the hole make your mamma talk

The Super Bowl Shuffle

We are the Bears Shufflin' Crew
Shufflin' on down, doin' it for you.
We're so bad we know we're good.
Blowin' your mind like we knew we would.
You know we're just struttin' for fun
Struttin' our stuff for everyone.
We're not here to start no trouble.
We're just here to do the Super Bowl Shuffle.
Walter Payton
Well, they call me Sweetness,
And I like to dance.
Runnin' the ball is like makin' romance.
We've had the goal since training camp
To give Chicago a Super Bowl chance.
And we're not doin' this
Because we're greedy.
The Bears are doin' it to feed the needy.
We didn't come here to look for trouble,
We just came here to do
The Super Bowl Shuffle.
Willie Gault
This is Speedy Willie, and I'm world class.
I like runnin' but i love to get the pass.
I practice all day and dance all night,
I got to get ready for the Sunday fight.
Now I'm as smooth as a chocolate swirl,
I dance a little funky, so watch me girl.
There's not one here that does it like me,
My Super Bowl Shuffle will set you free.
Mike Singletary
I'm Samurai Mike I stop'em cold.
Part of the defense, big and bold,
I've been jammin' for quite a while,
Doin' what's right and settin' the style,
Give me a chance, I'll rock you good,
Nobody messin' in my neighborhood.
I didn't come here lookin' for trouble,
I just came to do The Super Bowl Shuffle
(Repeat Chorus)
Jim McMahon
I'm the punky QB, known as McMahon.
When I hit the turf, I've got no plan.
I just throw my body all over the field.
I can't dance, but I can throw the pill.
I motivate the cats, I like to tease.
I play so cool, I aim to please.
That's why you all got here on the double
To catch me doin' the Super Bowl Shuffle.
Otis Wilson
I'm mama's boy Otis, one of a kind.
The ladies all love me
For my body and my mind.
I'm slick on the floor as I can be
But ain't no sucker gonna get past me.
Some guys are jealous
Of my style and class,
That's why some end up on their -,
I didn't come here lookin' for trouble,
I just get down to The Super Bowl Shuffle.
Steve Fuller
They say Jimbo is our man.
If Jimmy can't do it, I sure can.
This is Steve, and it's no wonder
I run like lightnin', pass like thunder.
So bring on Atlanta, bring on Dallas,
This is for Mike and Papa Bear Halas.
I'm not here to feather his ruffle,
I just came here to do
The Super Bowl Shuffle.
Mike Richardson
I'm L.A. Mike, and I play it cool.
They don't sneak by me 'cause I'm no fool.
I fly on the field and get on down.
Everybody knows I don't mess around.
I can break'em, shake'em,
Any time of day.
I like to steal it and make 'em pay,
So please don't cry to beat my hustle
'Cause I'm just here to do
The Super Bowl Shuffle.
(Repeat Chorus)
Richard Dent
The sackman's comin', I'm your man Dent.
if the quarterback's slow,
He's gonna get bent.
We stop the run, we stop the pass,
I like to dump guys on their -.
We love to play for the world's best fans,
You better start makin'
Your Super Bowl plans.
But don't get ready or go to any trouble
Unless you practice
The Super Bowl Shuffle.
Gary Fencik
It's Gary here, and I'm Mr.Clean.
They call me "hit man,"
Don't know what they mean.
They throw it long and watch me run,
I'm on my man, one-on-one.
Buddy's guys cover it down to the bone,
That's why they call us the 46 zone.
Come on everybody let's scream and yell,
We're goin' to do the Shuffle,
Then ring your bell.
William Perry
You're lookin' at the Fridge,
I'm the rookie.
I may be large, but I'm no dumb cookie.
You've seen me hit, you've seen me run,
When I get the pass, we'll have more fun.
I can dance, you will see
The others, they all learn from me.
I don't come here lookin' for trouble,
I just came here to do
The Super Bowl Shuffle.
(Repeat Chorus)

Song lyrics that drop specific dates, or reference specific pop culture events/icons, that have become completely outdated.

I used to think DK lyrics were outdated, and then Bush came into office, and all of the sudden, they were relevent again.

As the flames rose to her Roman nose,
And her walkman started to melt."



Though I believe he does say "iPod" when he sings it live now.

Springsteen - "57 Channels (And Nothin' On)" - I think this was out-dated a week after he released it.

XTC - "Merely a Man" - refers to Quadaffi (sp.?) and Jimmy Swaggert.

There's probably a bunch of songs that refer to Tammy Fae Baker. I think Crowded House had one that stunk from the get-go.

Yeah, Dead Kennedy's is the only group I could really think of besides all the TV shows mentioned in Black Flag's TV Party.

The Mentors - Secretary Hump

Here comes my secretary hump
I'm gonna cram my dick up her rump
She works all day from nine to five
She's kickin' up my sex drive
Now I'm gonna open her mouth real wide
And cram my big dick inside

Now,I'm just an executive on the job
And I'm just a horny slob
Here comes my secretary hump
Gonna cram my dick up her rump
Then I'm gonna open her pussy lips real wide
Then I'm gonna cram my infected dick inside

Oh gettin' my urge up
She looks so sexy
Long fingernails,short little skirt
Can't hold back any longer
Can't stop myself

Ha,ha,ha,ha,rape,rape,rape,rape,rape,take charge

Here comes my secretary hump
Gonna cram my dick up her rump
Then I'm gonna spread her butt cheeks real wide
And hock a luggie inside
She knew what to do around the clock
She knew how to blow my cock
She knew what to do when hired
If she doesn't put out,she's fired

Ah,you want to raise a baby?
Get it on with big,boss,daddy man
Don't look at me like you're too smart
You're just a little tart

You want a raise?
Unzip my zipper,I'll give you a raise
Ha,ha,ha,ha,rape,rape,rape,rape,take charge
