Song lyrics
If you think that a kiss is all in the lips 
C'mon, you got it all wrong, man 
And if you think that our dance was all in the hips 
Oh well, then do the twist 
If you think holding hands is all in the fingers 
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers and 
Make sure to never do it with them singers 
Cause they'll tell everyone in the world 

But he was thinking about the girl 
Yeah, but he's thinking about the girl, oh 

A lot of people get confused and they bruise 
Real easy when it comes to love 
They start putting on their shoes and walking out 
And singing "boy, I think I had enough" 

Just because she makes a big rumpus 
She don't mean to be mean or hurt you on purpose, boy 
Take a tip and do yourself a little service 
Take a mountain turn it into a mole 

Just by playing a different role 
Yeah, by playing a different role, oh 

The boat yeah you know she's rockin' it 
And the truth well ya know there's no stoppin' it 

The boat yeah you know she's still rockin' it 
The truth well you know there's no stoppin' it 

So what, somebody left you in a rut 
And wants to be the one who's in control 
But the feeling that you're under can really make you wonder 
How the hell she can be so cold 

So now you're left, denying the truth 
And it's hidden in the wisdom in the back of your tooth 
Ya need ta spit it out, in a telephone booth 
While ya call everyone that you know, and ask 'em 

Where do you think she goes? 
Oh yeah, where d'ya suppose she goes, oh 

The truth well you know there's no stoppin' it 
And the boat well ya know she's still rockin' it 

The boat well you know she's still rockin' it 
And the truth yeah you know there's no stoppin' it 

You recognize the effect and affect 
That it's causin' when she rocks the boat 
But it's the cause hittin on the Cardinal Laws? 
'bout the proper place to hang her coat 

So to you, the truth is still hidden 
And the soul plays the role of a lost little kitten but 
You should know that the doctor's weren't kiddin' 
She's been singing it all along 

But you were hearin' a different song 
Yeah you were hearin' a different song 
But you were hearin' a different song

Third time I know, just noticed on my download that when he goes to sing "While ya call everyone that you know, and ask 'em
Where do you think she goes?[b]
Oh yeah, where d'ya suppose she goes, oh", he makes a mistake and goes to sing "by playing a different role"(on the bold bit) eeesh! Jackie, mistakes n all I love you!

"If you think holding hands is all in the fingers
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers and
Make sure to never do it with a singer
Cause they'll tell everyone in the world"

I bought Get Behind Me Satan when "My Doorbell" was released. I listed to the singles, skipped through a lot of the CD. Maybe listened to it 3 months. WHAT WAS I THINKING?!!! Last week, I put it on and just completely fell in love with it. It is easily the best album of the decade. I'm really excited about Icky Thump coming out in June.
