[Verse 1 444 222 000 in drop D] 
[F#m] Yoh, pretty ladies, a - [Esus4]round the world,
Got a [D]weird thing to [E]show you, so tell 
[F#m]all the boys [F#m/E]and [F#m]girls, .. Tell your 
[F#m]brother, your sister, and your[Esus4] momma too,

[F#m]hands in the air, like [Esus4]you don't care,
[D] Glide by the [E]people as they [F#m]stop to look and stare,
Do your [F#m] dance, do your dance, [Esus4] do your dance quick,
Mo-- [D] --ma, come on, [E] baby, tell me [F#m] what's the word?

get it un [F#m/E] der [F#m] way
Word [F#m] up! It's the [Esus4] code [E] word, 
No [D] matter where you [E] say it, you [F#m] know 
that you'll [F#m/E] be [F#m] heard

[Verse 3] 
Now, all you [F#m] sucker DJ's who [Esus4] think you're fly,
There's [D] got to be a [E] reason, and we [F#m] 
know the rea [F#m/E] son [F#m] why
You try to [F#m] put on those airs, and [Esus4] act real cool,
But you [D] got to real - [E] ise that you're 
[F#m] acting like [F#m/E] [F#m] fools

[Verse 4] 
If there's [F#m] music we can use it, we're 
[Esus4] free to dance,
[D] We don't have the [E] time for psycho - 
[F#m] logical [F#m/E] ro [F#m] mance,
No ro - [F#m] mance, no romance, [Esus4] no romance for me,
Mo-- [D] --ma, come on, [Eadd9] baby, tell me 
[F#m] what's [F#m/E] the wor [F#m] d?
