This is a song about a young man (or perhaps a Clone of Dr. Funkenstein) who feels an urge to leave his home to go find “the funk.” He feels sad that he has to leave his mother, but he also knows that he needs to carve out his own way in life.

Funkin’ for Fun Lyrics
Ooooh, hooo!
Hey, yeah
Haaa
I got to go
Got to leave
Something's missing
That I need
I need to find it
Whatever it is
That's burdening my mind
I know mother will understand, yeah
I know she knows that I'm still the same man
They say bring up a child in the way he shall go
And he shall not depart
And I know when they said it, it turns my heart
Hey, hey, hey, hoo
Guy, guy guy guy guyeeee (x4)
Don't worry
Don't!
Worry 'bout me (don't worry)
I'm just funkin' around
For fun
When you see my mother
Don't!
Worry 'bout me (Tell her don't worry)
I'm just funkin' around (ai, ai)
For fun
Ohhh, nothing could compare
To my mother, nah, nah, nah, because I know she cared, yeah
I got to find my own way around
Hey, hey, I got to get down, yeah
Guy, guy guy guy guyeeee (x4)
Don't worry
Don't!
Worry 'bout me (don't worry)
I'm just funkin' around
For fun
Don't worry
Don't!
Worry 'bout me
I'm just funkin' around
For fun
When you see my mother
Hey, if you have a chance to see my father, my brother
Just tell 'em, that everything's all right
Hey, anytime
You find people assemble in the same place
Funkin' around
Everything's all right
Hey, hey
I don't think you heard me (coo coo ca choo) (say what)
Heyy, whooo (coo coo ca choo)
Owww, whooooaaa, aiiiii, hoooo!
If you see my mother (when you see my mother)
Tell her I'm all right
Tell her I'm all right
Just funkin' around
For fun
When you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right
I'm just funkin' around
For fun
When you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right (tell her you saw me and everything's all right)
I'm just funkin' around
For fun
Let's funk around
Hey!
Funk me, baby
Let's funk around
Hey
If you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right
Tell her I'm all right
Just funkin' around
For fun
Yeah, ah, ah, ah oohh!
If you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right
Tell her I'm all right
Just funkin' around
For fun
(x2)
When you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right
Tell her I'm all right
Just funkin' around
For fun
Having a good time
I'm funking around for fun
I'm having a good, good good time, yeah
Playing my guitar
Funking around for fun
Giving up the P.Funk
Ahh, the Bomb
When you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right (tell her everything's all right)
Tell her I'm all right
Just funkin' around
For fun
If you see my mother
(tell her that I met a man called Dr. Funkenstein and everything's all right)
Tell her I'm all right
Tell her I'm all right
Just funkin' around
For fun
If you see my mother
Tell her I'm all right (the P.Funk)
Tell her I'm all right (the bomb)
Just funkin' around
For fun
Owwww!!!
