Mr. DJ, are you ready?

You're driving me crazy, Mr. DJ

Mr. DJ, are you ready?

You're driving me crazy, Mr. DJ

Are you ready?

Are you ready to listen to this, all you bitches out there?

'Cause you fuckin' well like to know what I have to say

I'll first spell out my name to you

My name is R-I-C-H, Rich

And the bass is in my face

Fuck

I worked everywhere

From the sleaziest little whorehouse to the biggest disco in town

I've seen it all and I've been around

Rich bitches, poor suckers

Everything was okay

I've seen happy faces, sad faces

Happy people, sad people

But the music was always there

And I'm happy, thankful for the music

But the bass kept me going

The bass kept me going

You know, there was "yes" said, "no" said, "fuck" said, "every" said

There was fashion, there was passion

There were tears and fears and happiness

There was some style, there was some class

I never said no and I always said yes to the bass, the bass, the bass

I've been there, I've done that, I've seen that

You know, sex, drugs and rock and roll

And the funk, the funk was always there

May the funk be with you

And if the groove was alright, I was out of sight

But when the DJ didn't move me, I told him to fuck off

'Cause I needed some bass

I need to feel the bass in my face

You know what I'm saying, bitch?

I need the bass in my face, fuck you

Come on now, I wanna see you move

'Cause when I'm out here and dancing and singing

And doing all these wonderful things for you

I want you to do one thing for meFeel the bass

Come on, feel it with me

Come on now

I can see all you beautiful people out there

One by one

Yeah baby, I can see you dance

And I can see you shaking your little tiny ass around

On that dance floor

But what can you do without the bass?

The bass is the rhythm of life

The rhythm of life is the bass

Put the bass in your face

You know, I had some rides and some nice cars

Like limousines, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, you name it

They gave me diamonds, they gave me

Everything around

I've been all over the world

London, Tokyo, New York, Milano, Barcelona, Berlin

And it was nice, it was okay

But my name is Rich

R-I-C-H, Rich

But there ain't no funk without the bass

And the bass is the groove

That makes us move

We need the bass

We can't exist without the bass

So can you feel it?

Can you feel it?

Are you out there still with me?

I said, are you out there still with me?

Can you feel the bass?

Hey, all you bitches out there, can you feel the bass?

Come on, yeah, that's right

Now we're talking

Let's talk some basic shit

So let's go for the bass
