Lyrics
Let's get it started in here... And the bass keeps runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', And runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and... In this context, there's no disrespect, so, when I bust my rhyme, you break your necks. We got five minutes for us to disconnect, from all intellect collect the rhythm effect. Get started, get stupid. You'll want me body people will walk you through it. Step by step, like an infant new kid. Inch by inch with the new solution. Transmit hits, with no delusion. The feeling's irresistible and that's how we movin'. (Yo) Everybody (yeah), everybody (yeah), let's get into it (yeah), get stupid (c'mon) Get it started (c'mon), get it started, get it started! Let's get it started (ha), let's get it started in here. Let's get it started (ha), let's get it started in here. Let's get it started (ha), let's get it started in here. Let's get it started (ha), let's get it started (whoa, whoa, whoa) in here. Yeah. Let's get woohoo! Let's get woohoo! (in here) Let's get woohoo! Let's get woohoo! (in here) Let's get woohoo! Let's get woohoo! (in here) Ow, ow, ow! Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya... Runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin', and runnin' runnin'...
