Lyrics Sophisticated Boom Boom - The Shangri-Las
I
was
walkin'
down
the
street
And
it
was
gettin'
mighty
late
Well,
the
truth
of
the
matter
is
This
poor
girl
had
been
abandoned
by
her
date
When,
from
out
of
nowhere
Came
this
music
loud
and
clear
Let
me
see,
from
over
there
(No,
from
over
there)
Over
there?
(Yeah)
Well,
I
open
up
the
door
And
much
to
my
surprise
The
girls
were
wearin'
formals
And
the
boys
were
wearin'
ties
And
I
feel
that
I
should
mention
That
the
band
was
at
attention
They
just
stood
there,
oh,
so
neat
While
they
played
their
swingin'
beat
So
I
grabbed
this
little
boy
Who
came
struttin'
'cross
the
room
And
I
say
"What's
that?"
And
he
say:
"Sophisticated
boom,
boom"
It's
been
long
overdue
Sophisticated
boom,
boom
We
been
nee'in'
somethin'
new
Sophisticated
boom,
boom
Now
stand
up
straight
and
tall
Like
your
back's
against
the
wall
Take
two
steps
forward
(Boom,
boom,
boom,
boom,
boom,
boom)
And
shake
your
hips
(Boom,
boom)
It's
been
long
overdue
(Yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
yeah)
That's
not
very
sophisticated
(Sophisticated
boom,
boom)
We
been
needin'
somethin'
new,
(Yeah,
yeah,
yeah)
I
do
think
she's
blowin'
her
cool
(Sophisticated
boom,
boom)
Now
stand
up
straight
and
tall
Like
your
back's
against
the
wall
Take
two
steps
forward
(One-two,
forward)
(Boom,
boom,
boom,
boom)
Now
shake
your
hips
Boom,
boom
(Oooh,
oooh,
ooh,
ooh)
(Oooh,
ooh,
ooooh)
