Scissor Sisters 中译「剪刀女郎乐团」"剪刀姐妹",名子与实际大相径庭,成员大部分是男的。这个乐队来自纽约。Scissor Sisters 彻底复兴60年代摇滚精神,以迷幻摇滚,放克摇滚与迪斯科元素,配上假声唱法,玩弄性别打扮(这个比较恶)风靡英国。他们所有的歌曲几乎都是中快节奏,可以让人跟随起舞。
The Scissor Sisters (剪刀姐妹乐队) 成立于2001年,5名热爱音乐的年轻人对60年代的摇滚乐和70年代的DISCO音乐情有独钟,因此他们创作的歌曲多为较为传统的中快节奏、舞曲风格加上假声唱法,充满浓浓的怀旧情结,让听歌的人随时想翩翩起舞。直到2004年,他们才被英国的唱片公司选中发行首张唱片《The Scissor Sisters》,英国本土销量达到了230万张.
2006年9月,乐队返回美国发行第二张唱片《Ta-dah》,作为一支在外国成名的美国本土乐队,歌迷对《Ta-dah》的发行充满了期待,众多音评杂志也多为赞誉之辞。唱片依旧是带有一点复古情结的舞曲风格,同时又糅合了“芳克”摇滚、迷幻摇滚的元素。

Wake up in the morning with a head
like 'what ya done?'
This used to be the life
but I don't need another one.
Good luck cuttin' nothin',
carrying on, you wear them gowns.
So how come I feel so lonely
when you're up getting down?
So I play along when I hear that favourite song
I'm gonna be the one who gets it right.
You better know
when you'rengin' round the room
Look's like magic's solely yours tonight
But I don't feel like dancin'
When the old Joanna plays
But my two feet can't find a way
You think that I could muster up a little soft,
shoop devil sway
But I don't feel like dancin'
No sir, no dancin' today.
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Even if i find nothin' better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you break down when I'm not in the mood?
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Rather be home with no one
when I can't get down with you
Cities come and cities go
just like the old empires
When all you do is change your clothes
and call that versatile.
You got so many colours
make a blind man so confused.
Then why can't I keep up
when you're the only thing I lose?
So I'll just pretend
that I know which way to bend
And I'm gonna tell the whole world
that you're mine.
Just please understand,
when I see you clap your hands
If you stick around
I'm sure that you'll be fine.
But I don't feel like dancin'
When the old Joanna plays
My heart could take a chance
But my two feet can't find a way
You think that I could muster up a little soft,
shoop devil sway
But I don't feel like dancin’
No sir, no dancin' today.
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Even if i find nothin' better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you break down when I'm not in the mood?
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Rather be home with no one
when I can't get down with you
You can't make me dance around
But your two-step makes my chest pound.
Just lay me down as you blow it away
into the shimmer light
But I don't feel like dancin'
When the old Joanna plays
My heart could take a chance
But my two feet can't find a way
You think that I could muster up a little soft,
shoop devil sway
But I don't feel like dancin'
No sir, no dancin' today.
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Even if i find nothin' better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you break down when I'm not in the mood?
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Rather be home with no one
when I can't get down with you
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Even if i find nothin' better to do
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Why'd you break down when I'm not in the mood?
Don't feel like dancin', dancin'
Rather be home with no one
when I can't get down with you
