The Lyrics
I wrote these parody lyrics about eight years ago, when the term "emo" and emo music hadn't degraded into it's now mainstream use of referring to pseudo goth dumb-assness. The kind of early emo scene I was referring to in this parody is essentially arty post-punk dumb-assness. The kind of kids who wear Salvation Army sweaters, horn rim glasses and listen to Jets to Brazil. Not the kids today that wear all black, cut themselves and listen to My Chemical Romance when they could just as easily be listening to Slipknot.
She's into emo now
She's into emo now
She's into emo now she said, "Ska don't do no more for me."
Female Lead:
You know it's dead now
You know that music is through
(You know that music is through)
Male Lead:
I say it's not dead baby
I'll blow this horn til I'm blue
(I'll blow this horn til I'm blue)
She said she found music that's meant to make her sad
She said she found music that isn't just a fad
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
(Horn Solo)
She said she found music that's meant to make her sad
She said she found music that isn't just a fad
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
She's into emo now
She's into emo now
She's into emo now she said, "Ska don't do no more for me."
(Breakdown)*
Male Lead (Bridge):
Well I never thought you would get so bored
Just because my band has horns
I'd mope around, I'd wear a frown
Wear nothing but sweaters just for you
Outro:
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now
She's into emo now she said, "Ska don't do no more for me."
Female Lead:
You know it's dead now
You know that music is through
(You know that music is through)
Male Lead:
I say it's not dead baby
I'll blow this horn til I'm blue
(I'll blow this horn til I'm blue)
She said she found music that's meant to make her sad
She said she found music that isn't just a fad
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
(Horn Solo)
She said she found music that's meant to make her sad
She said she found music that isn't just a fad
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
She don't need no rude boy to be her man
She's into emo now
She's into emo now
She's into emo now she said, "Ska don't do no more for me."

Male Lead (Bridge):
Well I never thought you would get so bored
Just because my band has horns
I'd mope around, I'd wear a frown
Wear nothing but sweaters just for you
Outro:
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now!
She's into emo now!
*RBF is know to play a small portion of some unrelated song right before going into breakdown that leads into the bridge. I like to think for this version of the song it would be the chorus of The Middle by Jimmy Eat World. Copyright 2002 Daniel J. Leary http://www.myspace.com/dannyhatesmyspace
