My mama don't like it
My mama don't like it
My mama don't like it
My mama don't like it
Hip hop, doo-wop
Doom's day fight, the final Friday night
Big bang, doo-lang
Everything's crazy now the end's in sight
Looks like someone finally lost control
Pushed that panic buttom to the floor
I hope it don't mess my pompadour
Baby, give your love to me
Ain't much time as you can see
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
It's my thing
Jump back, beat cat
Honey, I was born to be a super star
King Kong, A-bomb
We'll never have time to show them who we are
What's that sound, the planes are overhead
Better hurry now and lock the door
Old James Dean he just don't live here anymore
Baby, give your love to me
Ain't much time as you can see
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
It's my thing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
It's my thing
Backyard shelter, party underground
In the morning, no one will be found
In the distance you won't even hear a sound
Baby, give your love to me
Ain't much time as you can see
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
It's my thing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
It's my thing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
It's my thing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
My mama don't like that funkabilly swing
