Word Up Lyrics By Cameo

    oh

    yo pretty ladies around the world
    got a weird thing to show you
    so tell all the boys and girls
    tell yo brother yo sister
    and yo momma too
    ’cause we’re about to throw down
    and you’ll know just what to do
    wave your hands in the air
    like you don’t care
    glide by the people as they start to look and stare
    do your dance do your dance
    do your dance quick mama
    come on baby tell me what’s the word

    oh word up
    everybody say when you hear their call
    you’ve got to get it underway
    word up it’s the code word
    no matter where you say it
    you’ll know that you’ll be heard

    now all you sucker djs
    who think you’re fly
    there’s got to be a reason
    and we know the reason why
    you try to put on those airs and act real cool
    but you’ve got to realize
    that you’re acting like fools
    give us music we can use it
    we need to dance
    we don’t have the time
    for psychological romance
    no romance no romance
    no romance for me mama
    come on baby tell me what’s the word

    oh word up
    everybody say when you hear their call
    you’ve got to get it underway

    interlude
    dial l for low
    come on all you people say
    word up word up
