"Chained to the Rhythm" Lyrics:
Verse 1:Are we crazy
Living our lives through a lens
Trapped in our white picket fence
Like ornaments
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Aren't you lonely
Up there in utopia
Where nothing will ever be enough
Happily numb
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Pre-chorus:
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on
Chorus:
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Verse 2:Are we tone deaf
Keep sweeping it under the mat
Thought we could do better than that
I hope we can
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Pre-chorus:
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on
Chorus:
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Bridge:
It is my desire
Break down the walls to connect, inspire
Up in your high place, liars
Time is ticking for the empire
The truth they feed is feeble
As so many times before
They greed over the people
They stumbling and fumbling
And we about to riot
They woke up, they woke up the lions
Chorus:
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

80S AD ICON, DOG SPUDS MCKENZIE 2 RETURN FROM THE GRAVE.

Bud Light, the Official Beer of the NFL, will debut a new 90-second Super Bowl spot as part of the brand's new campaign, "Famous Among Friends," re-introducing the brand's beloved  '80s pop culture icon and man's best friend, Spuds MacKenzie.

In the new Super Bowl spot, "Ghost Spuds," Spuds MacKenzie returns to visit an unsuspecting man, and along the way, helps him realize that sharing a Bud Light with friends is more than just drinking beers; it's about creating meaningful memories with friends.
"Bud Light has been present at memorable moments – big or small – among friends for decades," said Bud Light vice president Alex Lambrecht. "There's no one better than Spuds to celebrate Bud Light, and remind everyone that we don't just make beer, we enable moments that build and strengthen friendships."

The release of "Ghost Spuds," created by Wieden + Kennedy New York coincides with the 30th anniversary of Spuds' first appearance in Bud Light's Super Bowl XXI spot. The beloved Bull Terrier first appeared in the Super Bowl in 1987 and quickly won over the hearts and minds of Bud Light drinkers everywhere, and cemented his status as a pop culture staple. His affinity for living life to the fullest with friends, both old and new, embodied the spirit of Bud Light that we still honor today.

Although Spuds will be shedding his former persona, his message of lasting friendships is one that intends to resonate across generations, and integrate with Bud Light's broader "Famous Among Friends" brand campaign. Since 1982, Bud Light has been the most social, sessionable beer on the market, and the ultimate ice-breaker among strangers who are just friends you haven't had a Bud Light with yet. Spuds is coming back temporarily to help spread Bud Light's message of friendship in 2017 and after the Super Bowl will return to the after-life following the big game.

"It's been 30 years since we last saw Spuds MacKenzie. Or 210 if you are counting in dog years," says Wieden + Kennedy New York executive creative director, Karl Lieberman. "Nevertheless, it was the right time to set the record straight about what Spuds always represented: bringing friends together."

The ghost of Spuds is voiced by actor Carl Weathers, known for his roles in "Rocky," "Happy Gilmore" and more. "Ghost Spuds" is the second spot in Bud Light's recently launched campaign. The first spot, "Between Friends" aired during the AFC and NFC Championship games.
