Bust a Move

Bust it

This here's a tale for all the fellas

Tryin' to do what those ladies tell us

Get shot down 'cause you're over zealous

Play hard to get, females get jealous

Okay smartie, go to a party

Girls are scantily clad and showin' body

A chick walks by, you wish you could sex her

But you're standin' on the wall like you was Poindexter

Next day's function, high class luncheon

Food is served, and you're stone cold munchin'

Music comes on, people start to dance

But then you ate so much, you nearly split your pants.

A girl starts walkin', guys start gawkin'

Sits down next to you and starts talkin'

Said she wanna dance 'cause she likes the groove

So come on, fatso, and just bust a move.

Uh, hey, ya, uh, uh, hey, ya

Just bust a move

Uh, hey, uh, ya, uh, hey, ya, uh, uh.

You're on a mission and you're wishin'

Someone could cure your lonely condition

Lookin' for love in all the wrong places

No fine girls, just ugly faces.

From frustration, first inclination

Is to become a monk and leave the situation

But every dark tunnel has a light of hope

So don't hang yourself with a celibate rope.

Your movie's showin', so you're goin'

Could care less about the five you're blowin'

Theater gets dark just to start the show

And then you spot a fine woman sittin' in your row.

She's dressed in yellow, she says "Hello

Come sit next to me, you fine fellow"

You run over there without a second to lose

And what comes next, hey bust a move.

If you want it, you got it

If you want it, baby, you got it

Just bust a move

If you want it, you got it

If you want it, baby, you got it

In the city, ladies look pretty

Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty

Tell a funny joke just to get some play

Then you try to make a move and she says, "no way"

Girls are fakin', goodness sakin'

They want a man who brings home the bacon

Got no money, and you got no car

Then you got no woman, and there you are

Some girls are sadistic, materialistic

Looking for a man makes them opportunistic

They're lyin' on the beach perpetratin' a tan

So that a brother with the money can be their man

So on the beach you're strollin', real high rollin'

Everything you have is yours and not stolen

A girl runs up with somethin' to prove

So don't just stand there, bust a move

If you want it, you got it

If you want it, baby, you got it

Just bust a move

If you want it, you got it

If you want it, baby, you got it

Break it down for me, fellas

Huh, hey, ya, uh, huh, ooh, hey, ya

Uh, uh, hey, ya, ee, uh, uh, uh, ya

Your best friend Harry has a brother Larry

In five days from now he's gonna marry

He's hopin' you can make it there if you can

'Cause in the ceremony you'll be the best man

You say "neato," check your libido

And roll to the church in your new tuxedo

The bride walks down just to start the wedding

And there's one more girl you won't be getting

So you start thinkin', then you start blinkin'

A bride maid looks and thinks that you're winkin'

She thinks you're kinda cute so she winks back

And then you're feelin' really fine 'cause the girl is stacked

Reception's jumpin, bass is pumpin'

Look at the girl, and your heart starts thumpin'

Says she wants to dance to a different groove

Now you know what to do, G, bust a move

You want it, you got it

If you want it, baby, you got it

Just bust a move

If you want it, you got it

If you want it, baby, you got it

Move it, boy

Uh, uh, uh, hey, uh, uh, ya, uh

Huh, hey, huh, hey, uh, uh, hey, ya, ya
