'A rainy Monday afternoon There's a funk over the city Everybody's movin' to a different tune Some are weak and some are strong And some are sittin' pretty And then there's others who are barely hanging on

[Ahhh yeah, now this is what I call a party] [Party people everywhere] [???] [Look to my left, there go my boys] [Hold up fellows, hold up] [Wait, hold up fellows]
