[Verse 1: apl.de.ap]
Hey, what's up?
We back up in the cut
Beat it up into submission
We don't need no permission
Black Eyed Peas the coalition
Everybody go and listen
We goin on a mission
Givin you what you've been missin
So scream, and shout
You gotta let it out
The energy will never die
I can see it in the crowd
Get your engine up!
Get your engine up!
And wave your hands high
Like you tryin to touch the sky, but

[Chorus: apl.de.ap & Fergie]
Don't bring me down (just pick me up)
Don't bring me down (just pick me up-up)
Don't bring me down (just pick me up)
Don't bring me down...

[Post-Chorus: Fergie]
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah

[Verse 2: will.i.am]
Hey, hot damn!
We back up in the jam
Gotta drop it like SLAM
We rock it cause we can
Let's scream (let's scream)
And shout (and shout)
Let's turn the sucker out
Yeah, we burnin down the house
Y'all know what we all about
Yo' we energetic, so magnetic
Gravitate to my poetic
You connect? cause I'm kinetic
This is real, it ain't cosmetic
We are feeling, not synthetic
When I send it, you will get it
It's so splendid, I can't forget it
I know you lovin the sound...

[Chorus: apl.de.ap & Fergie]
Don't bring me down (just pick me up)
Don't bring me down (just pick me up-up)
Don't bring me down (just pick me up)
Don't bring me down...

[Post-Chorus: Fergie]
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah
Ah-ah-ahhh, ah

[Bridge: will.i.am & Fergie]
Don't let the elevator
Go on and bring me down
Feel the escalator
Move up to higher ground
Move up to higher ground
Move up to higher ground
Move up to higher ground

[Outro: Fergie]
Move up to higher ground
Don't let the elevator bring you down
Don't let the elevator bring you down
Don't let the elevator bring you down
