Lyrics
This is a thing that you start with your partner
And end up with somebody else's!
Ah man, here we go
Q-Tip right here (are you ready?)
Ah, ah, my-my man Lateef and DJ Shadow
Let's go, are you ready?
Hey girl, let's go on and paint the town tonight
Make sure that the club speaker's soundin' right
Make sure that the dance floor's shinin' nice
Whether we do the two-step, or bump and grind
Whether salsa and merengue, moan and whine
Gonna work that body out in due time
I stick to you close, like a shadow on all sides
Now, let me see you move it around
Head up, feelin' fed up, by the set up
As I punch that clock hard
Get up, grab my leather, ain't worried 'bout the weather
It's time for the art of life
And all the strife
That's goin' on the floor tonight
I spread my arms like a bird in flight
It's alright, little dime piece
We gonna do whatever we like
I ain't overly concerned with the price, tell you why
Day-in, day-out, we be workin'
Tension's hot, my feet be hurtin'
Now it's time and I am certain
We have had enough
Listen as I let this echo
In the ghetto, in the meadow
Every female, every fellow
We have had enough
Inside the the world, I struggle to find my
Place with the bass and the treble that's sky high
Whether you're stout, or you're short or you stand, or you fall
And you don't have a chance with them all
From project to playground, crosstown to uptown
Open your heart to the beat that's DJ-ed down
From DJ to DJ, it isn't easy
We make the vibes for the world hope that you play
Deeper we seep in, this is for weekends
Listen to Q-Tip, Shadow, and Lateef then
Music consoles, if you think it's a no
Then you insane, transforms, takes you to new planes
This is for all y'all folks who say
"Aw no, we ain't gonna dance, and enhance on this man's song"
Do get your ass up, how could you pass up
The chance to bring us in your world? Can you stand up?
Day-in, day-out, we be workin'
Tension's hot, my feet be hurtin'
Now it's time and I am certain
We have had enough
Listen as I let this echo
In the ghetto, in the meadow
Every female, every fellow
We have had enough
Now everybody just dance, dance
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Go crazy, get dumb, as you want
It's time to motivate your body
Go ladies, get sprung, have fun
It's time to motivate the party
Get you movin' like your arteries
Rock from here to Martinique
Turn around, bend over
Touch the floor like you're gardening
I'm trying to get closer than close 'til you're a part of me
Extension of my spirit and soul, that moves consciously
Forget about the parts of the world that move robotically
And enhance the things that you love out of reality
Take the proper steps to enjoy them methodically
You'll find that the levels you reach can be startling
Everybody, time to get up on the dance floor
It's your chance for an encounter that's romantic
And advance on like it was planned on
Everybody, time to get up on the dance floor
It's your chance for an encounter that's romantic
And advance on like it was planned on
Everybody, time to get up on the dance floor
It's your chance for an encounter that's romantic
And advance on like it was planned on
By the commander in a manner that is tantric, so
Girl, gonna let it all hang out tonight
Gonna let 'em loose, that shirt's too tight
Shake that thing with all your might
Whatever you like, whatever feels right, til' the morning like
Tell you why!
Day-in, day-out, we be workin'
Tension's hot, my feet be hurtin'
Now it's time and I am certain
We have had enough
Listen as I let this echo
In the ghetto, in the meadow
Every female, every fellow
We have had enough
Now everybody just dance, dance
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Dance, dance (come on, come on)
Dance, dance (Shadow on all sides!)
Dance
