I'm Shakin' - Rooney

Catchy song by Rooney.

Lyrics:

I've forgot
To what it feels like
To feel normal
To be normal
And I've forgot
To what food tastes like
The way it tastes right
The taste buds taste right
Well I wake up in so much spit and sweat
It is not normal
What is normal?

Well I go to bed
When I wake up
After cleaning all
All the spit and sweat

Now I'm
Now I'm

Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', I'm shakin' now

I tossed and turned
All night 'cause I
'Cause I Was looking for
For an ending.
This was so because
Because I watched all day
The neverending story
With Atreyu

The next day came
But not a beam of light
Because the blinds were shut
Shu shu shu shut to tight

Well I fell out of bed
Laced with spit and sweat
It made me very cold
It made me very cold

Now I'm
Now I'm

Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin'

I'm supposed to feel better
This nightmare is supposed to end
I am holding on, I am holding on,
I am holding on, I am holding on,

Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin'

Now, yeahhhhhhh
Now, yeahhhhhhh

Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up
Shoo shoo shakin', sha shakin' up

Those opening keyboard notes are enough to pull me 15 years back in time, right back to high school when The OC and Laguna Beach made Southern California look like heaven on earth for a Long Island boy like me.

"Hey Luke, who sings this song?" "ROONEY!!" "Yeah, let's keep it that way"

[Hunter-vphe]

I met one of my best friends in the world at a Rooney concert (at a water park) 17 years ago - we were the only two Black people at this show and it only cost $1.97 lol. Every once in a while we bring up this song and the nostalgia hits hard.

[AshleySpeaks]

I loved The OC as a kid, taking me back.

[LucasCerqueira]

Luke on The O.c screaming loud hahahaha

[NonoA]

Luke: sh-sh-shoo shake it, sh shake it up sh-sh-shoo shake it

Seth: hey man you know who sings this song
 
Luke: Rooney whoohoo Rooney

Seth:I wish he'd keep it that way

Luke:yeeeeaaah Rooney!

Good GOD, Lord have mercy...ya don't understAND how LONG, HOW LONG I've been searching for this SONG!!! I heard it on the radio way back when and fell in love with it! Never knew the name of the artist, nor lyrics except The Never Ending Story/Atreyu part...6 YEARS. FINALLY, by a stroke of luck I find this particular video by Rooney and gave it a chance...I nearly cried =') I love this song so much, it brings back so much from my childhood =D oh and I never watched The O.C. so I didn't know xD

[markram]

Hey!! I'm not alone....OC brought me here too.
