| This is a thing that you start with your partner…
|
| And end up with someone else’s!
|
| Ah man (ah yeah)
|
| Here we go (yeah)
|
| Q-tip right here (are you ready?!)
|
| Ah, ah, my-my man Lateef
|
| And DJ Shadow (Shadow)
|
| Let’s go (let's go)
|
| (Are you ready?!)
|
| Hey girl
|
| Let’s go on and paint the town tonight
|
| Make sure that the club speaker’s soundin' right
|
| Make sure that the dance floor’s shinin' nice
|
| Whether we do the two-step, or bump and grind
|
| Whether salsa and merengue, moan and whine
|
| Gonna work that body out in due time
|
| I stick to you close, like a shadow on all sides
|
| Now, let me see you move it around
|
| (Let me see you move it)
|
| Head up!
|
| Feelin' fed up
|
| By the set up
|
| As I punch that clock hard
|
| Get up
|
| Grab my leather (come on!)
|
| Ain’t worried 'bout the weather (hah!)
|
| It’s time for the art of life (yeah!)
|
| And all the strife
|
| That’s goin' on the floor tonight
|
| I spread my arms like a bird in flight
|
| It’s alright, little dime piece
|
| We gonna do whatever we like (whatever we like!)
|
| I ain’t over concerned with the price
|
| Tell you why (why!)
|
| Day-in, day-out, we be workin'
|
| Tension’s hot, my feet be hurtin'
|
| Now it’s time and I am certain
|
| We have had enough
|
| (Now everybody just dance)
|
| Listen as I let this echo
|
| In the ghetto, in the meadow
|
| Every female, every fellow
|
| We have had enough
|
| (Now everybody just dance)
|
| Inside the the world, I
|
| Struggle to find my
|
| Place with the bass
|
| And the treble that’s sky high
|
| Whether you’re stout, or you’re short
|
| Or you stand, or you fall
|
| And you don’t have a chance with them all
|
| From project to playground
|
| Crosstown to uptown
|
| Open your heart
|
| To the beat that’s DJ-ed down
|
| From DJ to DJ
|
| It isn’t easy
|
| We make the vibes for the world
|
| Hope that you play
|
| Deeper we seep in
|
| This is for weekends
|
| Listen to Q-Tip, Shadow, and Lateef then
|
| Music consoles, if you think it’s a no
|
| Then you insane
|
| Transforms — takes you to new planes
|
| This is for all y’all
|
| Folks who say «Aw no
|
| We ain’t gonna dance
|
| And enhance on this man’s song»
|
| Do get your ass up
|
| How could you pass up
|
| The chance to bring us in your world?
|
| Can you stand up?
|
| Day-in, day-out, we be workin'
|
| Tension’s hot, my feet be hurtin'
|
| Now it’s time and I am certain
|
| We have had enough
|
| (Now everybody just dance)
|
| Listen as I let this echo
|
| In the ghetto, in the meadow
|
| Every female, every fellow
|
| We have had enough
|
| (Now everybody just…)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!) (Ah-ah-ah)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!) (Shadow on all sides!)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!) (Shadow on all sides!)
|
| Dance, dance (come on, come on!) (Shadow on all sides!)
|
| Go crazy (go crazy)
|
| Get dumb (get dumb)
|
| As you want (as you want)
|
| It’s time to motivate your body
|
| Go ladies (go ladies)
|
| Get sprung (get sprung)
|
| Have fun (have fun)
|
| It’s time to motivate the party
|
| Get you movin' like your arteries
|
| Rock from here to Martinique
|
| Turn around, bend over
|
| Touch the floor like you’re gardening
|
| I’m trying to get closer than close — 'til you’re a part of me
|
| Extension of my spirit and soul, that moves consciously
|
| Forget about the parts of the world that move robotically
|
| And enhance the things that you love out of reality
|
| Take the proper steps to enjoy them methodically
|
| You’ll find that the levels you reach can be startling
|
| Everybody, time to get up on the dance floor
|
| It’s your chance for
|
| An encounter that’s romantic
|
| And advance on
|
| Like it was planned on (come on)
|
