[Verse 1]
She slid down to the city limits
Monkey time in fifteen minutes
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Don't let me down
Please stick around
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
[Chorus][x2]
Strobe light on funky feet
Soul children in the disco heat
Top dog, top cat
Move that muscle and shake that fat
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
[Verse 2]
Chicago, L.A
Everyplace, everyway
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Illinois, Santa Fe
Do do do do do do do what I say
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
[Outro] [x22]
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
She slid down to the city limits
Monkey time in fifteen minutes
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Don't let me down
Please stick around
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
[Chorus][x2]
Strobe light on funky feet
Soul children in the disco heat
Top dog, top cat
Move that muscle and shake that fat
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
[Verse 2]
Chicago, L.A
Everyplace, everyway
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Illinois, Santa Fe
Do do do do do do do what I say
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
[Outro] [x22]
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
