Word Up (Lyrics):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come on baby<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All 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
Cause we’re about to go down
And you’ll know just what to do<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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 mama, come on baby tell me what’s the word<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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
We need to dance
We don’t have no time
For psychological romance
No romance
No romance
No romance for me mama
Come on baby tell me what’s the word<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The word up
Everybody say when you hear the 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<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Word up
Everybody say when you hear the 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<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Word up
Everybody say…
Word up
It’s the code word…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
