Ohh! 
Yo 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 mama too 
We're about to go down 
And you'll 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 [bad word] on baby tell me what's the word 
Word up 

Everybody say when you hear they call you 
You've got to get it underway 
Word up, it's the code word 
No matter where you say it 
You'll know that you'll be heard 

Now all you sucker. D.J.'s 
Who think you're fly 
There's got to be a reason 
And we know the reason why 
You try to put on those airs and act real cool 
But you've got to realize 
That you're acting like fools 
If there's music we can use it 
Be free to dance 
We don't have the time 
For psychological romance 
No romance 
No romance 
No romance for me mama [bad word] on baby tell me what's the word 
The word up 

Everybody say when you hear they call you 
You've got to get it underway 
Word up, it's the code word 
No matter where you say it 
You'll know that you'll be heard
