La, La, La, La, La, La, La... Woo!

See this song ain't for everybody

only the sexy people

you know who you are

Aaaaah! Hey Baby!

Ya, Ya Ya, Ya, Ya

I'mma take you back to the 80s

check this out

This beat makes me reminisce

takes me back to our first kiss

carved our names on a big oak tree

I heart you and you heart me

New edition on the radio

I had a Commodore 64

We use to sit close on my bedroom floor

but mama never let us close the door

We use to hang outside until the lights came on

thought I was fresh to death with my Adidas on

You'd kiss me on the cheek, I had a silly smile on

Where has the time gone

[chorus]

I loved you since

Thundercats, Thundercats, Thundercats, HO!

Back when MTV played music videos

you told me get a jheri curl, mama said no

That's how long I've loved you

remember when I use to have a high top fade

back when you use to rock a dooky braid

friendship bracelets in the 8th grade

[ Wayne Brady Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

I loved you since back in the day

Everyday after school

I'd pop, you'd lock, we'd act a fool

I was at your house, you was at mine

Cosby Show at 8, Diff'rent World at 9

Motown 25, Michael moon walked for the very first time

Meet you at the rink on Friday night

We'd rock, we'd skate, hold hands real tight

Girl you would look so cute with your Jordache on

bet that you could still put those same jeans on

kiss me now and I'll have that silly smile on

girl you still turn me on and on and on, on, on

{repeat chorus}

Now everybody you know how we use to do in the parties back in the day

You know how we use to do, stand right here, I'mma stand right here

we all get in a line and we all be like uh

It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you

without an old school jam to step to

remember when we'd do the Whop

the whole crowd drop, do the Robo Cop

go girl do the Cabbage Patch

Jam Master J killing on the scratch

Members Only, Kid 'n' Play

that's how we did it back in the day...raaah!

{repeat chorus twice}

Party. There's a party over here

Party. There's a party over there

Party. There's a party over here
