Young MC - Bust A Move Lyrics
Official




Bust it
+
This here's a jam for all the fellas
+
Tryin' to do what those ladies tell us
+
Get shot down 'cause ya overzealous
+
Play hard to get, females get jealous
+
Okay smarty, go to a party
+
Girls are scantily clad and showin' body
+
A chick walks by, you wish you could sex her
+
But you're standin' on the wall like you was Poindexter
+
Next day's function, high class luncheon
+
Food is served and you're stone-cold munchin'
+
Music comes on people start to dance
+
But then you ate so much, you nearly split your pants
+
A girl starts walkin', guys start gawkin'
+
Sits down next to you and starts talkin'
+
Says she wanna dance, 'cause she likes to groove
+
So come on fatso and just bust a move
+
Uh, huh, yeah, huh
+
Uh, huh, yeah, huh (just bust a move)
+
Huh, hey, huh, yeah
+
Uh, huh, yeah, huh, huh
+
You're on a mission and you're wishin'
+
Someone could cure your lonely condition
+
Lookin' for love in all the wrong places
+
No fine girls just ugly faces
+
From frustration, first inclination
+
Is to become a monk and leave the situation
+
But every dark tunnel has a light of hope
+
So don't hang yourself with a celibate rope (uh)
+
New movie's showin', so you're goin'
+
Could care less about the five you're blowin' (uh)
+
Theater gets dark just to start the show
+
Then ya spot a fine woman sittin' in your row (uh)
+
She's dressed in yellow
+
She says, "Hello, come sit next to me you fine fellow" (uh)
+
You run over there without a second to lose
+
And what comes next, hey, bust a move
+
If you want it
+
You got it
+
If you want it
+
Baby, you got it (just bust a move)
+
If you want it
+
You got it, uh
+
If you want it
+
Baby, you got it, mh
+
In the city, ladies look pretty
+
Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty
+
Tell a funny joke just to get some play
+
Then you try to make a move and she says, "No way"
+
Girls are fakin', goodness sakin'
+
They want a man who brings home the bacon
+
Got no money and you got no car
+
Then you got no women and there you are (uh)
+
Some girls are sadistic, materialistic (yeah)
+
Lookin' for a man makes them opportunistic (uh)
+
They're lyin' on a beach, perpetratin' a tan (yeah)
+
So that a brother with money can be their man (huh)
+
So on the beach you're strollin', real high rollin' (yeah)
+
Everything you have is yours and not stolen (uh)
+
A girl runs up with somethin' to prove
+
So don't just stand there, bust a move
+
If you want it
+
You got it, uh
+
You want it
+
Baby, you got it (just bust a move)
+
And, you want it, ooh
+
You got it, uh
+
You want it
+
Baby, you got it (break it down for me fellas)
+
Ah-oh
+
Ah-oh
+
Ah-oh
+
Ah-oh
+
Huh, hey, yeah, oh
+
Ooh, ooh, hey, yeah
+
Uh, ooh, hey, yeah
+
Hey, huh, uh, uh, hey
+
Your best friend Harry has a brother Larry
+
In five days from now he's gonna marry
+
He's hopin' you can make it there if you can
+
'Cause in the ceremony you'll be the best man
+
You say, "Neat-o," check your libido
+
And roll to the church in your new tuxedo
+
The bride walks down just to start the wedding
+
And there's one more girl you won't be gettin'
+
So you start thinkin', then you start blinkin'
+
A bridesmaid looks and thinks that you're winkin'
+
She thinks your kinda cute, so she winks back
+
And now your feelin' really firm 'cause the girl is stacked
+
Reception's jumpin', bass is pumpin'
+
Look at the girl and your heart starts thumpin'
+
Says she wants to dance to a different groove
+
Now you know what to do G, bust a move
+
If you want it
+
You got it, uh
+
You want it
+
Baby, you got it (just bust a move)
+
Uh, you want it, ooh
+
You got it, uh
+
You want it
+
Baby, you got it (move it, boy)
+
Uh, huh, huh, hey
+
Uh, huh, yeah, huh
+
Huh, hey, huh, yeah
+
Uh, huh, hey, hey, yeah

Young MC - Bust A Move Video
(Show video at the top of the page)


• The main sample in this song is a loop from a song called "Found A Child" by a Seattle Funk group Ballin' Jack.

• It featured guest vocals by Crystal Blake and bass guitar by Red Hot Chili Peppers' Flea, both of whom also appeared in the video.

• About the experience Flea said: "I have a bitter taste in my mouth about that, because I feel as though I got ripped off. The bass line I wrote ended up being a major melody of the tune, and I felt I deserved songwriting credit and money because it was a #1 hit. They sold millions of records, and I got $200!"

• Young MC's also composed Tone Loc's hits Wild Thing and Funky Cold Medina.

• This won a Grammy for Best Rap Performance.
