| You can’t cool me down, I’m too hot
|
| Oh, it’s astronomical, baby
|
| Now dig
|
| A kid from the mitt in tone with the rhythm
|
| Picked up a record, couldn’t stop listenin'
|
| Found his salvation, knew he was different
|
| Breakin' all the rules, the nature of the fiction
|
| Cheatin', I was sleepin' with the digitals
|
| Brought home, comprende, the G knows
|
| You chase girls whose heads full of rainbows
|
| Nothin' made sense 'til he busted out the saxophone
|
| Everybody get up on they feet, now (Feet, now)
|
| You know I been funky since knee-high (Knee-high)
|
| Bustin' through the ceiling, get higher (Higher)
|
| You can’t cool this off, we on fire (Fire)
|
| Everybody get up on they feet now (Feet now)
|
| Everybody, everybody (Higher)
|
| The kid on a journey, met Mary-Lou
|
| He spun in the groove but on, he kept movin'
|
| Run for his dreams and faith in the music
|
| Run from the fame and lames and the jewelry (Yeah)
|
| Always on the road, the melody is home
|
| Snack packs and playin' music on the go
|
| Do you, 'cause doin' you is what’s dope
|
| Know he stayed true to his soul
|
| 'Cause you can’t fake the funk
|
| Ahh, the funk
|
| You can’t fake the funk

|
| Hey, Mr. Sax-man, get louder
