John Reuben - Jamboree [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
One for the treble, adjust the levels
The bass got swallowed by an 808
Ringtones for nickels and dimes
We don't hear music, jukebox needs change
Scratch your temple, the kids are listening
Think tank says short attention span
People are people more than business is business
Found a new marketing plan

[Hook]
Who rocks the show 'til it's good to go?
Put some money in the bank and tell the crowd "Thanks"?
(Come on, jamboree
Nickel and dime music machine)
Even if it's a tough pill to swallow
Entertainers, role models
(Cowbells, tambourines
Somebody's listening)

[Verse 2]
Come on everybody, good times, get ready
Decorate the room, confetti
We celebrate not to escape
Both feet on the stage ready to engage
Point to the sky like you know where to aim
Wish it was as easy to keep the faith
Willing to say God will make a way
But it's a dangerous place to get paid to motivate

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Isolated booth, soundproofed with a mattress
Sound man, turn me up, are we tracking?
In good conscience if it's alright
Step out the booth and find a spotlight
Couldn't afford a ticket so I stole the show
Cool, can I kick it like a pair of steel toes?
Change my shoes once I'm through the door
Like Mr. Rogers to be more comfortable
Working hard on a real good time
If you don't mind, come on, clap your hands
I wanna party without saying party
Control the crowd without making demands

[Hook]

[John Reuben]
Who rocks the show?

[Outro]
Yo, I'mma (show) through jamboree
It's like cowbells and tambourines
Come on, jamboree
Cowbells, tambourines
Come on, jamboree
(Come on, jamboree)
Cowbells and tambourines
(Nickel and dime music machine)
Come on, jamboree
(Cowbells, tambourines)
Nickel and dime music machine
(Somebody's listening)
Come on, jamboree
Nickel and dime music machine
Cowbells, tambourines
Everybody's here
Come on, jamboree
Nickel and dime music machine
Cowbells, tambourines
Everybody's here
