Yo, pretty ladies around the world
Got a weird thing to show you
So tell all the boys and girls
Tell your brother, your sister and your mamma too
We´re about to throw down
And you know just what to do
Wave your hands in the air like you don´t care
Glide by the people as they stop to look and stare
Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick mamma
Come on baby tell me what´s the word
Word up everybody says
When you hear the call you´ve got to get it under way
Word up it´s the cool word
No matter where you say it you know that you´ll be heard
Now all you super DJs who think you´re fly
There´s got to be a reason and you know the reason why
Why you put on those airs and you act real cool
But you've got to realise that you´re acting like fools
If there´s music we can use it
And we can dance
We don´t have no time for psychological romance
No romance, no romance, no romance for me mamma
Come on baby tell me what´s the word
Word up everybody says
When you hear the call you´ve got to get it underway
Dial L for love, Dial L for love, Dial L for love
W.O.R.D. UP, W.O.R.D. UP, W.O.R.D. UP, W.O.R.D. UP
Now all you super DJs who think you´re fly
There´s got to be a reason and you know the reason why
Why you put on those airs and you act real cool
But you've got to realise that you´re acting like fools
If there´s music we can use it
And we can dance
We don´t have no time for psychological romance
No romance, no romance, no romance for me mamma
Come on baby tell me what´s the word
Word up everybody says
When you hear the call you´ve got to get it underway
Word up it´s the code word
No matter where you say it you know that you´ll be heard
Word up everybody says
When you hear the call you´ve got to get it underway
Word up it´s the cool word
No matter where you say it you know that you´ll be heard
