Pass the Beat
[Intro]
Shake shake shake it
Shake shake shake it
Shake it
And don't break it
It took your mother nine months to make it
Shake it
And don't break it
Ha, ha, ha
Shake it
And don't break it
It took your mother nine months to make it
Shake it
And don't break it
Ha, ha, ha
[Verse 1]
Our whole school's talking, the word has been spread
It's a party affair, everyone will be there
We tell you what the word say is that
All the candy girls of the world will be so sweet now...
[Chorus]
Pass the beat! (Pass the beat)
Pass the beat! (Pass the beat)
Pass the beat! (Pass the beat)
Pass the beat! (Pass the beat)
Pass the beat!
[Verse 2]
Now Mike told Bobby
And Bobby told Ricky
Well, Ricky told Ronnie
And Ronnie told Ralph
That we're candy boys with soul
About to rock the party, let's go
Let's move along, be strong
Just dance, take the chance
Got the feelin', I really get the feelin'
Keep givin'
[Refrain]
Rock the party, let's go
Rock the party, let's go
Rock the party, let's go
Rock the party, let's go
Rock the party, let's go
Let's get on with the show
[Chorus]
Pass the beat
Pass the beat
Pass the beat
Pass the beat
Shake shake shake it!
[Refrain]
Shake it!
Don't break it
It took your mother nine months to make it
Shake it
Don't break it
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Shake it!
Don't break it
It took your mother nine months to make it
Shake it
Don't break it
Ha, ha, ha, ha
[Verse 3]
Now we're the poppin' kings
So we must do our thing
Make the ladies talk and scream
Being lean, clean, and mean
Put your pride aside
And let's go with the flow
Let your feelings show
Let's just rock this party
Shock this party
Take this party
Let's make it to the party
Now I heard a word
That the party will be jumpin'
And the bass will be thumpin'
Lookin' forward to somethin' heavy
Maybe we can leave the scene
With the girls of our dreams
And we can all talk together
Forever and ever, and ever
We said that we would get enough
But we can't because our soul's been touched
So let's do what we came here to
And prove that all this talk is true
[Refrain]
Shake it!
Don't break it
It took your mother nine months to make it
Oh, shake it!
And don't break it
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Pass the beat!
Pass it, pass it, pass it, pass it
Pass the beat!
