Word Up

- The 80's Allstars

Yo pretty ladies around the world

Gotta a weird thing to show you

So tell all the boys and girls

Tell your brother your

Sister and your momma too

Were about to go down

And you 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 mom

C'mon baby tell me what's the word

Now word up

Everybody say

When you hear the call

You got to get it under way

Word up

It's the code word

No matter where you say it

You know that you'll be heard

Now all you sucker djs

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 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 mom

C'mon baby tell me what's the word

Now word up

Everybody say

When you hear the call

You got to get it under way

No matter where you say it
