If y'all wanna hear us do it again, somebody say "Yeah!" (Yeah!)
We're gonna talk about the times that people laugh and cheer
Party time is the only time that people have nothin' to fear
People dance and celebrate and set aside some time
So they can boogie to this funky sound and listen to our rhymes, dig it!
Uh, hey, hey, ya get up!
Ya get down!
Stop-stop that messin' around!
Ahh boy
Say what?
Yeah
Huh, huh
Uh
Hey, hey, hey!
Party time, the time is now
You got to do your thing, so come on get down
Well it's time to say, we're gonna say a new rhyme
Funky 4 is here and it's party time!
We're gonna rock the house without a doubt
I'm Keith Keith, Jazzy Jeff, Sha-Rock, and Breakout
So get up and let's go, get loose, let's party
Not only you and you, we're talkin' to everybody
Rappin' is a sensation
And we are gonna spread it all around the nation
So get up on the dancefloor
Shake-shake your body
If you wanna party with everybody
You got to do it!
Well I'm Keith Keith and I don't take no pity
And I'm here to rock from New York City
With the girl Sha-Rock, I'm Jazzy Jeff
DJ Breakout, yes! He's one of the best
With the beat he make and the rhyme we sing
And you can better believe that they're all bling bing
Now the steps you do and the sounds you give
Party people in the place, party times we live!
I'm gonna get to the party about partyin' time
When you got cash money and you're feelin' fine
Well as a matter of fact 'cause any day of the week
When you wanna rock steady to the sure-shot beat
Well everybody in the place, let's go to work
And when you do your own thing just keep alert
It's about the time that I would like to say
The Funky 4 everybody is here to stay!
Woo!
Come on, get down with The 4!
Keith Keith, hey I'm Jazzy Jeff!
Breakout and, uh!
And I'm Sha-Rock party people (And she's ready to rock!)
And if you wanna be down you got to give me what you got
Five fellas in the place won't steer you wrong
You got to give it up (or leave-leave it alone)
So get ready for this (so get) ready for this
The party people in the place (get ready for this)
Just keep it on to, to the crack of dawn
To the fly guys (get-get-get) get it on, get it on
Ooh! You got to get it on
The party people in the place stop and listen to me
While I rap about the [?] with the greatest of ease
'Cause I'm just that bad and I want you to know
(That she can rock and don't stop) 'til I'm ready to go
'Cause I'm too hot to trot, too cold to walk
To all the fly fellas I'm aiming to talk (to you)
So whatcha wanna do? Woo!
Funky 4 is in the house!
That's right
C'mon
I'm walkin' down the street with my head up high
I got a name for myself and I'm satisfied
(Well he's Jazzy Jeff) I got a funky beat
And I'm a super bad rapper (right out of the streets)
You better take a good look, I'm like a very good book
(With a lot of rhymes) that'll get you hooked
'Cause I rap so sweet and I look so fine
And I'm the only MC (to pull a girl with a rhyme)
Hey I'm Jazzy Jeff with the most finesse
Come on, give it to me baby (get it off your chest)
You can give me your love (You can give him your money)
Well I'ma get both ('cause he ain't no dummy)
Gonna make a lot of sense, got to put it you straight
Just tell you who I am (and just why he's great)
I'm gonna talk about myself, tell it to the world
I wanna party with the guys, (make love to the girls)
Rappin' is a sensation
And we are gonna spread it all around the nation
So get up on the dancefloor
Shake-shake your body
If you wanna party with everybody
You got to do it!
You go on and on and on and on
The funky beat won't stop 'til the break of dawn
It's like hot butter on your bag of popcorn
Like a needle on the record when it's playing your song
And like a man who ran in the marathon
(He ran!) On and on and on and on
And everybody, and everybody
And everybody to-to the break of dawn
Come on, get down with The 4!
So get up and let's go, get loose, let's party
Not only you and you, we're talkin' to everybody
Hey y'all, party time, it's [?]
A discotheque, different places, 12 o'clock, midnight
Come dressed [?] down in your pinstripe [?]
You got money in your pocket, gonna rock the town!
And wear diamond rings, and your fancy things
You're wearin' gold on your neck with big respect
You pull up to the front in your fancy car
You want to be well known as a superstar
Then you walk in the party just as cool as can be
And then you prance and dance for the world to see
Now you do a nice step in the discotheque
And everybody in the place all know you're the best
And we're talkin' to the girls, we're talkin' to the guys
Now it's party time so don't pass it by
Because the night is young and the stars are bright
The spotlight's on you and you're feeling aright
And now you got the DJs that's on the mix
Breakout's number one, he got a bag of tricks!
So with his funky MCs that's on the mic
Now we can rock, we can shock, we can squeeze the light
So get up and let's go, get loose, let's party
Not only you and you, we're talkin' to everybody!
Keith Keith!
Mira Chachi!
Go, go, rock the house!
