Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now I lay me down to sleep
Ooh, I just can't find a beat
Flash light
Oh, I will never dance
Flash light
Flash light
Flash light
[Bridge]
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Oh, it's no use
[Chorus]
Flash light
Red light
Neon light
Ooh, stoplight
[Verse 2]
Now I lay me down to sleep
I guess I'll go count the sheep
Oh, 'cause I will never dance
[Verse 3]
Oh, don't make me do it
Dance, sucker
Get it
[Verse 4]
Most of all, he needs the funk
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk (I know you can get it)
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk (I know you will)
Help him find the funk (Dance, sucker)
Most of all, he needs the funk (Shine the spotlight on him)
Help him find the funk
[Verse 5]
Oh, funk me
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da (Get on down, dawg)
Dance, then, y'all
[Chorus]
Flash light
Flash light
Spotlight
Neon light
Street light
[Verse 6]
Everybody's got a little light under the sun
Shinin' on the funk
Shinin' on the funk
Shinin' on the funk
[Verse 7]
Most of all, he needs the funk
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk (Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da)
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk (Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da)
Help him find the funk
Most of all, he needs the funk (Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da)
Help him find the funk
[Verse 8]
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Flash light
Flash light
Flash light
Flash light
Flash light
Flash light
Flash light (Woah, flash light)
Flash light (Oh, flash light)
Spotlight (Spotlight)
Neon light (Ooh, neon light)
Flash light (Ooh, flash light, hey)
Stoplight (Stoplight)
[Verse 9]
Now I lay me down to sleep
I guess I'll go count the sheep
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Shake your funk
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Shake your funk
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
[Verse 10]
I think I found the funk
Flash light (Flash light)
Daylight (Daylight)
Spotlight (Spotlight)
Red light (Oh, red light)
[Verse 11]
Everybody's got a little light under the sun
[Verse 12]
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
Ha-da-da-dee, ha-da-da, ha-da-da-da
[Outro]
Everybody's got a little light under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun
Under the sun, under the sun
