Wayne County & The Electric Chairs:
Alright, yeah, alright.
Take a tip from me and get ready for the big parade.
It's the place to be every night's a happy holiday.
The kids are jumping around, everybody's doing loop de loop.
Just a making the rounds like a speed freak in a telephone booth.
The downstairs is packed and the groupies are all dressed up.
Upstairs the New York Dolls are kickin' it out looking tough.
You've got a personality crisis baby.
Down at Max's.
All the boys are,
All the girls are,
All the kids are,
Down at Max's.
