dexy's midnight runners
Despite being constantly termed as a one hit wonder by those not educated about the them, Dexy's Midnight Runners is easily one of the best bands of the 80s. All three of their releases are considered classics among critics, fans and those who actually know the band for more than "Come on Eileen." Their sound changed throughout their discography. They're supposidly releasing a new record in the near future. For the most part their sound can be described as a mix between post-punk, northern soul, and chamber pop.
Dexy fan: Searching for the Young Soul Rebels by Dexy's Midnight Runners is one of the greatest records of all time.
Person: You mean those "Come on Eileen" guys?
Dexy fan: ...you're a tool.

Dexy's Midnight Mumbler
A Dexy's Midnight Mumbler is a person trying to lip sync the words of Dexy's Midnight Runner's classic hit "Come On Eileen"
Nobody knows the words to Come on Eileen, not even Dexy's Midnight Runners, and they wrote the stupid song.
But 1am at a retro disc, lights down, notice how everyone on the dance floor seems to know the words ..... match perfect?
Here's the real lyrics .........
"Come on Eileen, I swear, well he means
Ah come on let's, take off everything
Pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)
Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen
Pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)
Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen, please"
And if you turned off the music suddenly, this is what you would hear from the Dexy's Midnight Mumbler .....
"Come on Elieen ....... da da da I mean
come on yeah ..... everything
and that dress .... and that dress
come on yeah ...... oh Eileen .......... (you get the picture)

Dexy Shit
This is a lifestyle! People that tend to use this word often dont give a fuck about life! they live life to their fullest which means they dont care about what other people think about them! People that use the phrase “dexy shit” are often on some boss lifestyle which means they are balling and are above everyone and everything! The phrase is mostly used whenever u flex or you do something savage in which u trully dont give a fuck!
