Songtekst
"Yo' Vanilla kick it one time boooy
Oh yeah, gotta gotta yep yep
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music 'till ya' die
Check it out, 'cause Ice is rhyming
To the top I keep on climbing
Suckas', thought I couldn't swing this
Now rock the crowd and get a pump-fist
Go Ice, everybody is sayin'
To the funky beat that's playing
If you wanna' stop me you can't hang
Vanilla is in this with a shotgun bang
Extreme is where im taking it
One week MC's just keep on faking it
Smoooth, like Strawberry ice cream
Flow with the beat real smooth and nicely
Ladies, I wanna' rock with you
And Later in the night, you know I'd like to persue
Somthing, real sexy and nice
Play that funky music Vanilla Ice!
CHORUS:
Play that funky music
Play that funky music riiight-Pump it up!
Play that funky music riiight-I can't hear you!
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music 'till you die
CHORUS
Some people thought I wouldn't break
Then I stuffed number one in their face
Never, forget where I came from
Don't lose your head, heh, 'cause you can get dumb
Do it, is my motto for the moment
Get in my way, I'll knock you out like my opponent
Cause' in this life it's one for all
All for one and a loud no downfall
Punks, always wanna' get some
Pick-Pockets and then they try to play dumb
Yo', take it From the Ice man
Lyrical Poet with a master plan
Telling you how it is in show biz
A white rapper with some street knowledge
I write the rhyme for you, Yeeeah
Drop this one for the V.I.P. Crew
CHORUS
Vanilla Ice, Yep Yep, I come in hard like a rhino
Intoxicate you so you staggle like whino
So stop trying, Girl stop crying
Vanilla Ice is selling and you people are buying
It's not me, it's my possie, Too
That's why you freaks are talking like Crazy Glue
Movin', and Groovin' trying to sing along
All through Ghetto to prove this here song
Now your amazed, by the V.I.P possie
Stepin' so hard like a German Nazi
Startled by the vases hittin' the ground
There no trip in the mind because im gettin' down
Stalk-o-Matic i'm hangin' top like a fanatic
You taught me words, and I thought you might have it
So sit down and lend me your ear
'Cause 1990 is my year, baby
CHORUS
Your wreakin' vast, NO!, and I can tell it
Your body's gettin' hot, SO?, so I can smell it
So don't be mad, and don't be sad
'Cause your lyrics brung the Ice(SSS)
You can call me Dad
Your pitchin' a fit, so step back and endure
Witch doctor Ice(SSS) will do the dance to cure
Come up close, uh, and don't be square
You wanna' battle me? Anytime, Anywhere
You thought that I was weak
Boy, your dead wrong
Come on everybody, let's sing this song
Say, Play that funky music
-Play that funky music
Say, Go white boy, Go white boy, Go
-Go white boy, Go white boy, Go
Just lay down and boogie, and play that funky music till' you die
CHORUS
Pump it Up!
Uh
Ah
That's right baby."
