Lyrics

Say your gettin' down, but who you getting it from
I got more fonk than Sanford got Junk you can all get some
It's an old groove, goes way back to 1765
Kunta was on the run just to stay alive
There were lions on the left, and cheetahs on the right
Those cats were hungry and they were lookin' for a bite
He got to thinking and picked up a pair of sticks
and high-tailed nis butt up to the rhinoceros
Started beating a rhythm, it was such a funky sound
Those cats stopped in their tracks & started gettin' down...
(That's a true story. I heard it on Pee Bee Ess...)

Came the Pied Piper, tried to pipe those rats away
But those meeses went to pieces, laughed for 7 days
Well, the Pied Man, he got himself a piccolo snare
And those rats marched down to the river, jumped in
like they didn't have a care.

Here we are, once again, entertaining time
You just sit there drinkin' while I think of a rhyme
I offer you my music w/ a groove as smooth as glass
If you're gonna stand there at least you could shake a that As...


I got to have it more funky...
