Suits Theme Song

2011-present

17 months of no posting—a new record, and it’s all because of Google.

Honestly, because of the rare combination a rockin’ (semi) new show with a very rockin’ theme song, this post was hard to pass up on. Suits is that USA Network sometimes-funny legal drama starring industry veteran Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams.

TV Trivia: Gabriel Macht almost played the role of Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) in Numb3rs.

Now on to the theme song. The original song is entitled “Greenback Boogie” and is by Los Angeles-based band Ima Robot. Ima Robot has been around since the late 90s; they are categorized (genre) as “synth rock” or “dance rock.”

“Greenback Boogie” is part of their third and latest album release, Another Man’s Treasure (2010) under Werewolf Heart Records. However, the song was only part of a 4-track b-side bonus if customers purchased the album from their official site, imarobot.com. The full song is 4:58 long.

Below is the official video of “Greenback Boogie” (complete song).

Below is the 30-second opening of the show.

Suits theme song lyrics (show edit)

The song used for the intro i actually an edited version. It contains part of the first verse and the third verse going to the “greenback boogie” chorus. See below.

See the money wanna stay, for your meal
Get another piece of pie, for your wife
Everybody wanna know, how it feel
Everybody wanna see, what it’s like
I’ll even eat a bean pie, I don’t mind
Me and Missy is so very busy busy making money
Alright
All step back, I’m ’bout to dance
The greenback boogie
