Yoh pretty ladies around the world Got a wierd thing to show you So tell all the boys and girls Tell your brother, your sister and your mamma too We're about to go down And you know just what to do Wave your hands in the air like you don't care Glide past the people as they stop to look and stare Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick mamma Come on baby tell me what's the word
Word up everybody say When you hear the call you've gotta get it underway Word up it's the code word No matter where you say it you know that you'll be heard
Now you sucker DJ's that think you're fly There's gotta be a reason and you know the reason why Why you put on your airs and you act real cool Got to realise that you're acting like fools Now there's music we can use it You're free to dance We don't have the time for psychological romance No romance, no romance, no romance for me and mamma Come on baby tell me what's the word
Word up everybody say When you hear the call you've gotta get it underway Word up it's the code word No matter where you say it you know that you'll be heard
