IT'S A SLANG THANG



WITH THE DISC JOCKEY ROCKIN
THE SOUNDS START A POPPIN
PEOPLE START FLOCKIN
THE PARTY'S A TOPPEN

IZZY AND LIZZY
BOTH BUSY AND DIZZY
KNEE KNOCKIN
BEBOPPIN
HIP HOPPIN
TIC TOKIN

THEN IT ALL HAPPENS 
CROWDS START A CLAPPIN
RAPPERS START RAPPIN
FINGERS START SNAPPIN
TOES START A TAPPIN
CAMERAS START FLASHIN

IT ALL SEEMS AMAZING 
ONLOOKERS GAZZING
EYES ARE A GLAZING
THE JAMS ARE A BLAZING 
SPIRITS ARE RAISING
THEN THE MUSIC STARTS PHASING

THE PRODUCTION'S A RAP
THE AUDIENCE CLAPS
WITH THEIR MOVES ON THE MAP
TIPS DROP IN THE HAT

IT'S TIME TO RELAX
TAKE A LOOK BACK
REMEMBER THE TRACKS
THAT MADE IT ALL HAP
TOMORROW THEY'LL DO IT AGAIN.
