All you pretty ladies around the world, got a weird thing to show you so
tell all the boys and girls. Tell your brother, your sister and your mommy,
too, cause they're about to go down and we know just what to do.
Wave your hands in the air like you don't care. Glide by the people as they
start to look and stare. Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick,
come on pretty lady, tell me what's the word.
word up (word up!) everybody say, when you hear the call you got to get it
on the way.
word up (word up!) now it's the code word, no matter where you say it you
know that you'll be heared. Guitar!
riff
Now all you sucker DJs who think you're fly, there's got to be a reason and
we know the reason why. You try to put those airs and act real cool, maaaan
you got to realize that you're acting just like fools. If there's music, we
can use, we need to dance. We don't have the time for psycological romance.
No romance, no romance, no romance for me, come on pretty baby tell me
what's the word.
word up (word up!) everybody say, when you hear the call you got to get it
on the way.
word up (word up!) now it's the code word, no matter where you say it you
know that you'll be heared. Guitar!
