Fellas, I'm ready to get up and do my thing

Stay on the scene (get on up)

Wait a minute!
Shake your arm, then use your form
Stay on the scene like a sex machine
You got to have the feeling sure as you're born
Get it together, right on, right on

The way I like, is the way it is
I got mine, don't worry 'bout his

Stay on the scene, like a sex machine!
The way I like it is, is the way it is
I got mine, (dig it!), he got his
Stay on the scene, like a lovin' machine
Stay on the scene, like a lovin' machine
Stay on the scene
I wanna count it off one more time now (go ahead!)
You wanna hear it like it did on the top, fellas? (Yeah!)
Hear it like it did on the top? (Yeah!)
