Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Friday night and the scene is bright at Avalon
Walked straight to the bar in her party dress, yes
Told the bartender pour her a shot and make it strong
Because she needed cheerin' up, she proceeded to get drunk
You could see it tearin' up in her eyes
[Verse 2]
But when she gets home, she puts her headphones on
She plays her favorite song and fades away
And when the music's on, she can do no wrong
And she feels safe and calm and it's okay
[Verse 3]
And she say ba ba ba da da, ba bum ba dee dum ba
The world keeps turnin', life goes on
And she say ba ba ba da da, ba bum ba dee dum ba
The world keeps turnin', life goes on
[Verse 4]
The night before had a date with a boy from Highland Park
Said he'd meet her at the diner at 9 o'clock
Leather boots, eyeliner laid on extra dark
She got a table set for two, but he never made it through
And she tried to play it cool as she cried
[Verse 5]
But when she gets home, she puts her headphones on
She plays her favorite song and fades away
When the music's on, she can do no wrong
And she feels safe and calm and it's okay
[Verse 6]
And she say ba ba ba da da, ba bum ba dee dum ba
The world keeps turnin', life goes on
And she say ba ba ba da da, ba bum ba dee dum ba
The world keeps turnin', life goes on
[Verse 7]
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off
[Verse 8]
Got to shake it off, shake it
Got to shake it off, shake it
Got to shake it off, shake it
(The world keeps turnin', life goes on)
Got to shake it off, got to shake it off
[Verse 9]
Got to shake it off, shake it
Got to shake it off, shake it
Got to shake it off
