Lyrics

Hold on, hold on, why y'all beatin' on shit, what's that mean? Hold up, do y'all wanna learn a new dance? Are you qualified to learn one? That's what I thought Who can dance out there? Okay, we gonna try a new dance And if I don't see everybody doin' it, I don't wanna see you no more Jellybean, are we ready? Y'all better do this one What time is it? Alright, y'all got 10 seconds To get to the dance floor and whawk America, have you heard? I got a brand new dance and it's called "The Bird" You don't need no finesse or no personality You just need two arms and an attitude And everybody sing with me, come on now Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Brothers, don't be cool Women like it sometimes when you act a fool Sisters, don't be shy Let your body get loose, you ain't to fat to fly Come on now Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Yes, hold on now, this dance ain't for everybody Just the sexy people White folks, you're much too tight You gotta shake your head like the black folks You might get some tonight, look out America, have you heard? Got a sexy new dance it's called "The Bird" You don't need no finesse or no personality You just need two arms and attitude And everybody sing with me, come on now Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa, come on Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa, everybody Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa, come on Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Alright, when the horns blow I want everybody on the floor You know this groove is sexy You ain't got no excuse no more Jerome, I wanna show 'em where we live Siamese twins joined at the suit Fellas, give me something to fly with, whawk Alright, brothers, keep up with that Jerome, bring me my hat Did I mess my hair up? Fellas, y'all play something I'm go over here and talk to this girl I pledge allegiance to the time Can y'all sing that? Sing it I said, I pledge allegiance to the time Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Whawk! Hallelujah! Whoa Fellas? Yeah What's the word? Whawk When you wanna get some What'd you do? Do "The Bird" Fellas? Yeah What's the word? Whawk When you wanna get some What'd you do? Do "The Bird" America What's the word? Whawk When you wanna get some What'd you do? Do "The Bird" Take it home! Whawk! Whawk Chili sauce It's the last call for alcohol If you ain't got what you want You got to get the hell outta here
