Lyrics
Intro
Ah
Mm-hmm, woah, woah, woah
Verse 1
In a room full of mirrors that never look away
Disco Bob stares at Disco Bob all day
He talks about himself like he's already famous
Third person only, no other way
Pre-Chorus
He doesn't care what the world is doing
He doesn't care who's in the room
There's only one subject worth pursuing
And that subject is him, under the disco moon
Chorus
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
Verse 2
Studio 54 plays on a loop in his head
He walks the opening of Saturday Night Fever instead
Of living any kind of normal life
He narrates every second like it's already written
Pre-Chorus
Friends try to interrupt the monologue
But the monologue never ends
He answers every question with another
About Disco Bob and how the night never bends
Chorus
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)

Verse 3
He writes the chapter titles before the chapters exist
"Disco Bob Enters the Building"
"Disco Bob Owns the Night"
"Disco Bob Looks at Disco Bob and Approves"
He signs every page in advance
Pre-Chorus
No one asked for the story
He tells it anyway
Every detail polished, every failure erased
Except the part where he's still just talking
Chorus
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)

Bridge
Disco Bob is completing the thought
Will I ever find out Studio 54?
Ha! Close enough. Maybe.
Is that my problem? Maybe.
All he thinks about is Studio 54
And himself, in third person, for some stupid goddamn reason
So we decided to make a book about him
A thick, pointless, glittering book
Because he's a complete idiot
And the world somehow still looks
Final Chorus
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
(That's the life, that's the life)
The biography of Disco Bob
He never stops talking about himself. Part one ends here.
Written by Disco Paul Bob
