B-52's, The - Funplex Lyrics






I'm a pleasure seeker, shoppin' for a new distraction
I'm a pleasure seeker, lookin' for some platinum action
I'm a pleasure seeker, movin' to the muzak
I'm a pleasure seeker, lookin' for the real thing

Chandalabra's in a wonderbra
Dress Barn runway, a real draw
Faster pussycat, thrill, thrill
I'm at the mall on a diet pill

Oh, broke my heart at the funplex
Yes you did, yes you did
Oh, broke my heart at the funplex,
Yes you did, yes you did

The Taco Tiki Hut is where we ought to meet
Underneath the chandelier at the ATM machine
Oh honey, is it all about money?

Hey Lady
What?
What lady?
That lady?
No!

Private property, hippy be quiet
Your peace sign t-shirt could cause a riot
Faster, faster, can't get enough
What the hell will I do with this stuff?

I'm your daytime waitress at the Taco Tiki Hut
I'm your daytime waitress here's your stupid 7-Up
You kicked my heart going up and down the escalator
You blew me off and now you've lost the real thing

Oh, broke my heart at the funplex
Yes you did, yes you did
Oh, broke my heart at the funplex
Yes you did, yes you did

You know fashion frenzy
(Panic at the funplex)
Gets me higher and higher
No will power and my wallet's on fire

(Panic at the funplex)
Fashion frenzy gets me higher and higher
No will power and my wallet's on fire

Oh, broke my heart
Oh, broke my heart
Panic at the funplex

Faster, Faster, Thrill, Thrill,
Too much to do,
It's time for a pill.

Oh, broke my heart
Panic at the funplex

Misery at the funplex
And there's too much sex
The world is going to hell!!!
(Panic at the FunPlex)
And WHAT is that HORRIBLE Smell???
Faster, faster, thrill, thrill
Too much to do
It's time for a pill

B-52's, The Funplex Comments
  1. Y.... E....

    Fate schifo

  2. J.... W....

    Sounds like not a day has passed since Rock Lobster, but jeez...I don't think they could lip sync to save their lives.
    TBH, I was kinda hoping this was a studio video, not...whatever it is...but a great song tho

  3. R.... I....

    In the early 80”s New Wave was in , and the B 52’s were on point !

  4. H.... G....

    The b52s hacen la mejor música que escuchado en mi vida

  5. J.... R....

    Damn f****** amazing !!!!!

  6. R.... P....

    I love Kate Pierson.

  7. E.... F....

    Such a good song!

  8. M.... B....

    Umm. Talet lost. Who thought of this idiot video. 52s were drawn in.

  9. P.... A....

    Funplex baby Funplex !

  10. F.... S....

    Love B52s. Unique cool voices and music!!!!!

  11. S.... ....

    Nothing but killer.

  12. R.... K....

    Yosoy me los hizo recordar

  13. E.... "....

    tops any rap crap amd latin shit they put out these days........

  14. T.... W....

    I danced to this song on like just dance 1

  15. W.... M....

    A long time fan of the B52's, my fav song from then still is Wig. That song rocks..

  16. K.... ....

    THE TACO TIKI HUT IS WHERE WE ALL MEET

  17. A.... J....

    Sociedade Hedonista

  18. G.... S....

    OMG - Has it been over 10 years? "Faster Pussycat, thrill, thrill!"

  19. I.... M....

    I just saw them do this live in 2019, the b52s do not get their credit

  20. B.... C....

    This song is brutal, and so simple, yet vindictive in a deeply disturbing fashion.

  21. a.... s....

    2019 anyone?😅

    a.... s....

    that is the year it currently is

  22. j.... ....

    Hold it just one minute. The B-52's released music after 1989? That's news to me. Maybe it's another Mandela effect?

  23. C.... ....

    This doesn't hold a candle to the stuff on their 1st two albums but taken on its own merits it's still a lot of fun. I'm glad The B-52s are still around.

  24. J.... L....

    My favourite 52's song

  25. B.... B....

    Its fuckin sweet!!

  26. H.... S....

    APRIL!!!

  27. H.... S....

    I still think of this video. Green screen sorta like the Matrix / Neuromancer / cyber punk themes.

  28. L.... ....

    Who’s here from 2019?
    No one? literally no one?

    Nope

    L.... ....

    It's still the 80s on Planet Claire.

    L.... ....

    Almost everyone has forgotten this great song!

    L.... ....

    No,I from 2020

  29. E.... B....

    Doesn’t Keith Strickland ever age?

  30. J.... L....

    Love seeing the Goths dancing with the mall cops!

  31. G.... ....

    I am living years 2000 or 80's? Wow!
    Someone 2019?

    G.... ....

    I don't understand your confusion or your question. Haha, I sound like Fred.

  32. M.... M....

    B girls so gorgeous!

  33. D.... H....

    I was listening to this in my car today and heard "I'm at the mall on a diet pill" and almost ran off the road LMAO!

    D.... H....

    Doug H. Nuts I FINALLY FOUND OUT WHAT THAT MEANT THIS YEAR HAHAHAHAH

  34. B.... ....

    Not even half a million views??? WTMF?????

  35. R.... R....

    My favorite B-52's jam out of 30+ years of their awesome songs to choose from. The 60's dance moves were epic 😉

  36. B.... H....

    I like the CSS remix better

  37. T.... S....

    My only complaint is I wish it had real drums and fender strats are the most boring guitars on earth. These guys usually have something way more stylish then that. Other then that they did everything right!

  38. W.... V....

    Who has looked better at 60 than Kate? 1948 model!

  39. W.... V....

    1:14 is the best part of this Video.

  40. F.... H....

    The b52 is wanderfull, curtindo Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson em 25/12/2018😍😍😍😍😍

  41. V.... ....

    I actually thought this was from the eighties or nineties but this was made same year I was born 2008

  42. E.... B....

    Great song! Kate and Cindy sound so much alike!

  43. H.... S....

    Fruitcake soon!

  44. M.... ....

    A great song to shop at the mall to... except during the holidays. DO NOT try that under *any* circumstances; I learned it the hard way last year.

  45. A.... R....

    Las chicas se siguen viendo geniales 😱😱😱 como le hacen???

  46. H.... S....

    2018 Halloween

  47. T.... G....

    lol Fred is weird

  48. P.... K....

    That view count in unacceptably low

  49. C.... d....

    does anyone else have a good time listening to this and then get punched in the gut at the hippy thing?

  50. F.... Y....

    Octubre 2018?

  51. s.... s....

    You can't tell me you'd beat me at this is just dance

  52. T.... B....

    Lemme tell you this track is amazing when you're theapy power shopping to get some control in your daily life... you literally don't notice your wallet is getting dinged till it catches of fire and your riding high on lattes and lemonades and slimming smoothies... It a wild ride

  53. j.... c....

    2018 :)

  54. a.... ....

    I’m from Nj and we have this small amusement park called the Funplex, and I sing this every time I drive by 🤣👏

  55. C.... _....

    This is so cool !

  56. H.... S....

    I like Hifi Sean Ft. Fred Schneider after this. In the U.S.A.F. we had this truck... it was a secret... I shoudn't talk more about it. https://youtu.be/IHh9bPnvm4Y

  57. H.... S....

    2:40 Those strings obeyed in the end. Intergalactic floss. Strings pull but sticks push sort of thing.

  58. H.... S....

    I want to try and use those phones in something like Necromancer.

  59. M.... P....

    That greenroom is something out of Star Trek. I don't science has truly cracked what can be done yet.

  60. G.... W....

    It had been ten years since the b52's previous single before 2008.

  61. G.... R....

    Hey you one off Rock and Roll Hall of Fame now

  62. L.... G....

    Dos de las mejores vocalistas de la historia. Respetos y admiración por Kate y Cindy.

  63. C.... U....

    Estuve buscando esta canción por años, no recordaba quien la cantaba o como se llamaba, solo la había visto en vh1 AMO ESTE MOMENTO ♥

  64. n.... p....

    This group and especially kate and Fred make me feel all right.

  65. S.... G....

    What is this video...?

  66. R.... L....

    4:23 is Rupaul???

  67. S.... ....

    I'm a pleasure seeker, shoppin' for a new distraction
    I'm a pleasure seeker, lookin' for some platinum action
    I'm a pleasure seeker, movin' to the music
    I'm a pleasure seeker, lookin' for the real thing
    Chandelabras in a WonderBra, oh
    Chris Barnes runway, a real draw, oh
    Faster pussycat, thrill, thrill
    I'm at the mall on a diet pill
    Oh, broke my heart at the Funplex
    Yes you did, yes you did
    Oh, broke my heart at the Funplex
    Yes you did, yes you did
    The taco tiki hut is where we're all gonna meet
    Underneath the chandelier at the ATM machine
    Oh honey, is it all about money?
    Hey lady
    What?
    What lady?

    No
    Private property, hippy be quiet

    Oh, broke my heart at the Funplex
    Yes you did, yes you did
    Oh, broke my heart at the Funplex
    Yes you did, yes you did
    You know fashion frenzy gets me higher and higher (panic at the Funplex)
    No will power and my wallet's on fire
    Fashion frenzy gets me higher and higher (panic at the Funplex)
    No will power and my wallet's on fire
    Oh, broke my heart
    Oh, broke my heart

  68. M.... ....

    You can't have a video by the B52's and NOT have so much fun watching it. Love this.

  69. J.... L....

    2:37 they can rock too, love em

  70. J.... L....

    This song is fun AF, the album had great songs

  71. C.... N....

    I sometimes refer to Fred as the origin of rapping.

  72. C.... A....

    I'm not a big fan of Fred's short hair. _It makes him look gay._

    C.... A....

    I always feel gay when I check out his short hairs.

  73. M.... S....

    There's something ULTRA modern about this one. Like those little bits of light in the mall like it has a computer core in there somewhere. The elevator lighting is a bit cheap effect but it is a killer look.

  74. �.... �....

    Раньше они поотвязнее были. :)

  75. K.... W....

    Hey, I'm 46 and I remember rock lobster. Both are still hot and sound great!!!!!

  76. S.... L....

    So today I was riding in my car, and I had forgot that I loaded this album/song on my usb memory stick, ok? And when the Funplex album started playing, I thought, holy crap, I haven't heard this for years...Then this song starts playing. Let me tell you, it still rocks, and better than 95% of the crap you see or hear now several years later. It doesn't get old folks...Fantastic song, lyrics, production and mix. "Here's your stupid 7 Up!' and "The World's going to Hell and what's that awful smell?"

    S.... L....

    I can't believe this album is nearly 10 years old!

  77. p.... e....

    Very 🆒

  78. D.... F....
