Do You Think Rick Dees is Funny?

Rick Dees is one of the talented radio personalities in America today. He is really a guy who makes funny remarks and got the talent to make the squash an apple. He is widely known on his The Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 Countdown. Have you heard Disco Duck? He is behind it all the way.

There is just this one song that made him a part of history in the music scene. When he was creating a song about 1960s novelty dance song "The Duck" that turn out to be DISCO DUCK.

It is really a funny song by the way.

Disco Duck is a story happening inside a dance party who happens to be pre-occupied by the urge to get up and down like what ducks do. When there is no music he sits down but when he thinks to get up and dance again, he then finds everyone inside the disco club enjoying his dance styles.

Lyrics of Disco Duck

Rick Dees:Went to a party the other night
All the ladies were treating me right
Moving my feet to the disco beat
How in the world could I keep my seat
All of a sudden I began to change
I was on the dance floor acting strange
Flapping my arms I began to cluck
Look at me..I'm the disco duck

Duck:Ah get down mama, I've got to have me a woman, ha ha ha ha ha
CHORUS: Disco, disco duck
Duck:Got to have me a woman
CHORUS: Disco, disco duck
Duck:Oh get down mama
CHORUS: Try your luck, don't be a cluck, disco
Duck:Disco
CHORUS: Disco
Duck:Disco
CHORUS: Disco - disco - disco disco duck
Duck:All right
CHORUS: Disco disco duck
Duck:Ah get down mama, oh mama shake your tail feather, ha ha ha ha ha

Rick Dees: When the music stopped I returned to my seat
But there's no stoppin' a duck and his beat
So I got back up to try my luck
Why look it's the disco Duck!!

Duck:Everybody's doin' the
CHORUS: Disco, disco duck
CHORUS: Disco, disco duck
CHORUS: Try your luck
Duck:Wave to me
CHORUS: Don't be a cluck
Duck:I'm so happy to be here
CHORUS: Disco
Rick Dees:Thank you duck
CHORUS: Disco
Rick Dees:For gettin' down
CHORUS: Disco disco disco
Rick Dees:Thank you so very much
CHORUS: Disco duck
Duck: You're welcome
CHORUS: Disco Disco Duck
CHORUS: Try your luck, don't be a cluck, disco, disco, disco...
