My baby don't mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure
But does she really wanna
But can't stand to see me
Walk out the door
Can't stand to fight the feeling
'Cause the thought alone
Is killin' me right now
Thank God for mom and dad
For sticking two together
'Cause we dont know how
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
You think you've got it
Oh, you think you've got it
But got it just don't get it
'Til theres nothing at all
We've get together
Ohhh, we've get together
But seperate is always better
When there's feelings involved
If what they say is "nothing is forever"
Then what makes? Then what makes?
Then what makes? Then what makes?
Then what makes love is the exception
So why you, why you
Why you, why you
Why you are we so in denial
When we know we're not happy here?
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Alright now, alright now, fellas
Oh, what's cooler than being cool?
I can't hear ya
I said: what's cooler than being cool?
All right (15x)
Ok, now, ladies (yeah)
We gon break this thing down in just a few seconds
Now dont have me break this thing down for nothing
I wanna see ya'll on ur badest behavior
Lend me some sugar
I am your neighbor
Ah, hear we go now
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it like a polaroid picture
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it, sh, shake it
Shake it, sugar
Shake it like a polaroid picture
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
Hey ya
Heey yaaaa
