Whip It

Gerald Casale, Mark Mothersbaugh

Lyrics Translation

Crack that whip
Give the past a slip
Step on a crack
Break your mama's back

When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

When a good time turns around
You must whip it
You will never live it down
Unless you whip it
No one gets away
Until they whip it

I say whip it
Whip it good
I say whip it
Whip it good

Crack that whip
Give the past a slip
Step on a crack
Break your mama's back

When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it

It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

Crack that whip
Estale esse chicote
Give the past a slip
Deixe o passado para trás
Step on a crack
Pise numa rachadura
Break your mama's back
Quebre as costas da sua mãe
When a problem comes along
Quando um problema surge
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo
Before the cream sits out too long
Antes que o creme fique muito tempo fora
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo
When something's going wrong
Quando algo está dando errado
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo
Now whip it
Agora chicoteie
Into shape
Dê forma
Shape it up
Arrume
Get straight
Fique direito
Go forward
Siga em frente
Move ahead
Avance
Try to detect it
Tente detectar
It's not too late
Não é tarde demais
To whip it
Para chicoteá-lo
Whip it good
Chicoteie bem
When a good time turns around
Quando um bom momento vira
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo
You will never live it down
Você nunca vai superar
Unless you whip it
A menos que você chicoteie
No one gets away
Ninguém escapa
Until they whip it
Até que eles chicoteiem
I say whip it
Eu digo chicoteie
Whip it good
Chicoteie bem
I say whip it
Eu digo chicoteie
Whip it good
Chicoteie bem
Crack that whip
Estale esse chicote
Give the past a slip
Deixe o passado para trás
Step on a crack
Pise numa rachadura
Break your mama's back
Quebre as costas da sua mãe
When a problem comes along
Quando um problema surge
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo
Before the cream sits out too long
Antes que o creme fique muito tempo fora
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo
When something's going wrong
Quando algo está dando errado
You must whip it
Você deve chicoteá-lo

Crack that whip
Saca ese fuete
Give the past a slip
Dale un pase al pasado
Step on a crack
Pisa un hoyo
Break your mama's back
Rómpele la espalda a tu mamá
When a problem comes along
Cuando un problema viene
You must whip it
Tienes que azotarlo
Before the cream sits out too long
Antes de que la crema se asiente mucho
You must whip it
Tienes que azotarlo
When something's going wrong
Cuando algo malo está pasando
You must whip it
Tienes que azotarlo
Now whip it
Ahora azótalo
Into shape
En forma

To whip it
Para azotarlo
Whip it good
Azótalo bien
When a good time turns around
Cuando un buen tiempo cambia
You must whip it
Debes azotarlo
You will never live it down
Nunca lo vivirás
Unless you whip it
Al menos de que lo azotes
No one gets away
Nadie se escapa
Until they whip it
Hasta que lo azoten
I say whip it
Digo azótalo
Whip it good
Azótalo bien
I say whip it
Digo azótalo
Whip it good
