The Reverend

Now brothers and sisters

There comes a time in your life you've got to get up and get busy

Can I get a witness

(Yes brother yes )

Now I don't know if you're prepared to embark upon this journey

But the time is running out

Brother Jazzy break it down

Liggedy-ladies and gentlemen hello and how are you doin all

Now there's a problem that we really have got to solve

In our society there's a big mess

People are having entirely too much stress

And me and Jeff yo we've been workin on

A way to ease your everyday burdens of

Work and school because we thought that we should

Make a record that makes people feel good

This is a remedy simple and basic

You work too hard come on face it

You gotta treat yourself you deserve it

Dance like a wild person come on you earned it

Young and old and old and young

Relax come on cool out come and get some

You gotta let yourself go get loose it's

Cool - dance to the music

Say J-e-f this beat is def

Can I get a witness Jeff (Yes)

Are you ready to start things off yet

Aight bet

Clap your hands and dance come on let's do this

Here is a hip-hop track with a new twist

Designed to ignite a subliminal dance fuse

And even if you can't dance you can't lose

It's for everybody you included

We hooked up a beat and a rhyme and e q -ed it

And then we - yo Jeff where's my beat at

Oh there it is back to the story line

The music and rhyme are designed to make you have a (good time)

At the party or wherever you hear it pumpin

Get up and twist or breakdance or shake somethin

Yo man this groove is all of that

And it's different from anything we've done in fact

I might even go as far as to say

This cut shines bright on the darkest day

And sometimes you really need some light

Like when your teacher or boss ain't actin right

This will quench your thirst to chill it hits the spot

Give em a taste yo Jeff let the beat rock

Now Brother Jazzy

Please enlighten us with a bassline

And for all the people assembled before us

Brother Jazzy scratch

We're at the top not the bottom or the middle

We're the freshest the deffest the best Jeff cut it up a little

(Oh I get it you wanna dance )

Ahhhh the time is now to get up and dance and move

And clap and jump and jam and feel the groove

I want you wigglin and jigglin and stompin and shakin

And showin your approval for the records me and Jeff are makin

We got a brand new album out

And dancin and shakin and movin is what it's all about

We want everybody to get busy

You're not down with the Rev then get with it

This is a new age history turned a new page

They said that we would decay and I say who do they

Think they're dealing with a couple of amateurs

I'm willin to bet to where this jam hits

At your job and at your school dance and also on the radio

Winter inside the house summer on the patio

Let me get out of here before I lose it

But remember the motto y'all: dance to the music

Now now

Ladies and gentlemen of the congregation

We realize you are not in a position to get up and dance right now

So we'd like to ask of you if you're in your car honk your horn

Honk your horn to the rhythm

We'd like to ask if you're behind the desk at your job

We'd like you to tap your pen and pencil to the rhythm

If you're walkin down the street

You can be a little discreet

And snap your fingers to the beat

But if you are in a position

To get up and dance

We'd like to ask you to wiggle and jiggle everything you got

And get involved with it
