* Chad & Matt got the idea one night to write a song about Gregg's secret fetish of going out and competing in Roller Disco Competitions. (Why else couldn't he make it to band practice?) Can you picture him in an ironed hawaiian shirt and some short- shorts? SexE! *( Worst recording quality ever! We spent no time finding tone or mic placement , etc. It was all about the content!) Taylor/CJ lended their beautiful vocal abilities. And of course gregg frowned when he first heard it and said something like "...wow got much time on your hands guys?" - He later agreed to play keyboard and allow us to put the song on our album. Thanks for being a good sport Gregg! I'm sure he'll get even in the near future!
lyrics
Gregg was born in nineteen eighty six Disco was forever dead but he wouldn't hear any of it One christmas he pulled out from underneath the tree a secret so dark he kept it for years from you and from me It was a brand new pair of white vinyl roller skates with jelly wheels and bright green pom poms bouncing freely at his heels He knew exactly what he was supposed to do His skates were size nineteen Big enough for Gregg and his disco dream Watch him roll Look at him go He moves like a dump truck sick from sliders and tacos Gregg now skates from town to town in pursuit of winning the disco crown Hawaiian shirts and daisy dukes are what he wears to knock girls boots He never stops to second guess cause disco rhythm is the best He will conquer one and all In Gregg's eye's disco will never fall It was a brand new pair of white vinyl roller skates with jelly wheels and bright green pom poms bouncing freely at his heels Go Gregg Go Skating so fast my god those short's are so small Roll Gregg Roll You could have been a disco quig but you should have shaved your legs Spin Gregg Spin Cruising around Oh no not another wardrobe malfunction Win Gregg Win Your heart is pure but that chick you were with last night wasn't Surprise
