Word Up

Yo, pretty ladies around the world
We got a weird thing to show you
So tell all the boys and girls
Tell your brother, your sister and mama too
'Cause we're about to go throw down
And we'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 (do your dance)
Do your dance quick
Mama, come on, baby, tell me what's the word?

Ay, oh
Word up (word up)
Everybody say when you hear the call
You got to get it underway
Word up (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 ass and act real cool
But you've got to realise that you're acting like fools

If there's music we can use it, we need to dance
We don't have that time for psychological romance
No romance (no romance), no romance (no romance)
No romance for me, mama
Come on, baby, tell me, what's the word?
