W-o-r-d, we’re coming up
K-k-keep it, keep it coming up
So do your dance, do your dance
Do your dance, quick, mama
Come on, baby, tell me what’s the word, ohw
Woah, hey, word up, c’mon, c’mon, wooh

Yo pretty ladies around the world
Got a weird thing to show you, so tell all the boys and girls
Tell your brother, your sister and your mama, too
‘Cause we’re about to throw down and you know just what to do

Wave your hands in the air, like you don’t care
Glide by the people, as they start to look and stare
Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance, quick, mama
Come on, baby, tell me what’s the word

Word up, everybody say
When you hear the call, you’ve got to get it underway
Word up, it’s the code word
No matter where you say it, hou know that you’ll be heard

All you sucker DJs., who think you’re fly
There’s got to be a reason and we know the reason why
You try to put on those airs and act real cool (you ain’t cool)
But you’ve got to realize, that you’re acting like fools

Give us music, we can use it, we need to dance
We don’t have the time, for psychological romance
No romance, no romance, no romance for me, mama
Come on, baby, tell me what’s the word

Word up, everybody say
When you hear the call, you’ve got to get it underway
Word up, it’s the code word
No matter where you say it, hou know that you’ll be heard

W-O-R-D up
W-O-R-D up
W-O-R-D up (everybody say)
W-O-R-D up

W-O-R-D, we’re coming up, dial “L” for low
K-k-k-keep it, keep it coming up
So do your dance, do your dance
Do your dance, quick, mama
Come on, baby, tell me what’s the word
Word up, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Word up, word up, ohw, hey, hey

Word up, everybody say
When you hear the call, you’ve got to get it underway
Word up, it’s the code word
No matter where you say it, hou know that you’ll be heard

Word up, everybody say
When you hear the call, you’ve got to get it underway
Word up, it’s the code word
No matter where you say it, hou know that you’ll be heard, yeah
