[Verse 1]
I m gonna go to the super - mark - et,
I m gonna go to the liquor store,
I m gonna get me some cardboard box - es,
You know what them boxes are for!
[Verse 2]
I m gonna rent me a U - Haul trail - er,
Hook it on the back of ...my old car,
Call up some of my stronger bud - dies,
That s what your strong buddies are for!
[Chorus]
We re gonna move, we re gonna move,
Yeah, move-----------!
| / / / / | / / / / |
[Verse 3]
Give it to the Sal - vation Army, or the Good - will,
We ve got so much ....junk it s a joke,
Wrap a knick- nack in some old news - paper,
I know it was a present, but the damn thing broke!
[Verse 4]
Your old shoes, and my old T - shirts,
My strong buddies crave ice cold beers,
Don t throw that a - way, it s a family heir -loom,
I ve had that ash - tray for fifteen years!
[Chorus]
We re gonna move, we re gonna move,
Yeah, move-----------!
| / / / / | / / / / |
[Break]
We re gonna empty out our old place,
And move into a brand new better space,
Move--------------------------------!
||: / / / / | / / / / :||[x2]
[Verse 5]
We got the books, and the records,
And the tapes, and the pictures,
And the pots and the pans, and all the breakable glass,
The living room couch, and the dining room table,
The washer, and the dryer, what a pain in the ass!
[Verse 6]
We ve got the TV, and the home enter - tainment centre,
The box spring, and the queen-size bed,
We got the Christmas deco - rations,
And the bureau, and the play - pen,
IF WE ...HAD A PI - ANO, I THINK I D DROP DEAD!
[Chorus]
Brrrrrrrrrrrr! Oh, yes, yes! Brrr, dah!
(We re gonna move, we re gonna move!)
||: / / / / | / / / / :||[x2]
[Verse 7]
At the end of the day, the old place is empty,
And the new place hous - es all of our stuff,
Unpack all the crap in the cardboard boxes,
It wasn t that bad, no, it wasn t so rough!
[Verse 8]
But my strong buddies... look a little bit grumpy,
I don t why----- I broke my butt,
To - morrow we ll call up the telephone compan - y,
And get another set of house keys cut!
[Chorus]
We re gonna move, we re gonna move,
Yeah, ...move-----------------------------!
| / / / / | / / / / |
[Break]
I can tell by the look on your face,
You just... love our brand new better space, baby!
Move-----------------------------! | / / / / |
[Chorus]
We re gonna move, we re gonna move----------!
We re gonna move, we re gonna move----------!
We re gonna move,
(Whick -tish!)
Yeah, move-----------------------------!
