I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
I took my baby to the doctor
With a fever, but nothing he found
By the time this hit the street
They said she had a breakdown
Someone's always tryin' to start my baby cryin'
Talkin', squealin', lyin'
Sayin' you just wanna be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
You got to be startin' somethin'
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
It's too high to get over (yeah, yeah)
Too low to get under (yeah, yeah)
You're stuck in the middle (yeah, yeah)
And the pain is thunder (yeah, yeah)
You're a vegetable, you're a vegetable
Still they hate you, you're a vegetable
You're just a buffet, you're a vegetable
They eat off of you, you're a vegetable
Lift your head up high
And scream out to the world
I know i am someone
And let the truth unfurl
No one can hurt you now
Because you know what's true
Yes, i believe in me
So you believe in you
Help me sing it, ma ma se,
Ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma sa, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma coo sa
Ma ma se, ma ma sa,
Ma ma coo sa (6x)
