The song opens up with just the drums and one of the Pixies mumbling something. I'm not quite sure who it is or what they are saying. This is the only song that I know of, however, where David Lovering does most of the singing. xby = x bent to y xdy = bring prebent to x back down to y ~ = virbrato xsy = x slide to y ============================================================================ (Guitar1) (Guitar2) (Lyrics) Shake Your Butt (But not too hard) ====================REPEAT SILENCE ABOVE TWO TIMES ========================== (Guitar1) -
