[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
[Verse 1]
Back off, boogaloo
Whatcha think you're gonna do?
I gotta flash right from the start
[Verse 2]
Wake up, meat head
Don't pretend that you are dead
Get yourself up off the cart
[Pre-Chorus]
Get yourself together now
And give me somethin' tasty
Everything you try to do
You know it sure sounds wasted
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
[Verse 3]
You think you're a groove
Standin' there in your wallpaper shoes
And your socks that match your eyes
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Pre-Chorus]
Get yourself together now
And give me somethin' tasty
Everything you try to do
You know it sure sounds wasted
[Verse 1]
Back off, boogaloo
Whatcha think I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna flash right from the start
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
[Chorus]
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
Come on, back off, boogaloo
Back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
I said, back off, boogaloo
[Verse 1]
Back off, boogaloo
Whatcha think you're gonna do?

Wake up, meat head
Don't pretend that you are dead
Get yourself up off the cart

Get yourself together now
And give me somethin' tasty
Everything you try to do
You know it sure sounds wasted
