Gangsters of the Groove

We're the gangsters of the groove

Got a contact out on you

We're the syndicate of soul

Gonna take control

Check out the stiff that sits in the corner

Don't you know that could be you

Jump on the riff, we're givin' the orders

Watchin' everything you do

Don't try to squeal

We'll be gunnin' you down

Got the deal, spread the message around

That the mob is hitting town tonight

We're the gangsters of the groove

Got a contact out on you

(There ain't a chance that you'll survive)

We're the syndicate of soul

Gonna take control

(You've got to join the winning side)

We're the bandits of the beat

(Yeah)

Gonna dance you off your feet

(There ain't a word that you can say)

Better do just what you're told

Let the good times roll

(Come on and join us all today)

Don't try to hide, there ain't no protection

Even from the FBI

Don't call the cops, just follow directions

If you wanna stay alive

Dress up to kill

(Lay your life on the line)

For the thrill

(Be a partner in crime)

Of the wildest sound that's goin' down

We're the gangsters of the groove

Got a contact out on you

(There's no excuses left to use)

We're the syndicate of soul

Gonna take control

(We're tired of livin' in the blue, yeah)

We're the bandits of the beat

Gonna dance you off your feet

(There ain't a word that you can say)

Better do just what you're told

Let the good times roll

(You've got to try us out today)

Stand and fire up the nation

With a brand new point of view

Got to fight the depression

Let the world know what the family could do

Here tonight, baby, ooh, hoo

Gangsters of the groove

We're comin' after you

Gangsters of the groove
