Shake
Little lady with electric fever
All the guys, they run and hide
They're afraid of this pioneer
But peek-a-boo, I see you
Don't hold me down
I'm irrepressible
Dangerous ground
Stop bossing me around
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
Take this chance right now
To be my leader
Lay it on me, wow
Make me smile from ear to ear
Shake me up and break me down
I've got my dancing shoes on
So make me move
'Til I cry out like a hound
A pretty bird sitting in her birdcage
Should be up in the air to fly
Now you're here trying to clip these wings
But that won't do, who the hell are you?
I'll say it loud
Step back from the scene of the crime
I won't allow
Stand behind the yellow line
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
Take this chance right now
To be my leader
Lay it on me, wow
Make me smile from ear to ear
Shake me up and break me down
I've got my dancing shoes on
So make me move
'Til I cry out like a hound
Shake your pepper
Shake your tail feather
Shake your money maker
Hell even shake your grandma
Let it all hang out
And just scream and shout
Like me, like me, like me
Take this chance right now
To be my leader
Lay it on me, wow
Make me smile from ear to ear
Shake me up and break me down
I've got my dancing shoes on
So make me move
'Til I cry out like a hound
All the guys, they run and hide
They're afraid of this pioneer
But peek-a-boo, I see you
Don't hold me down
I'm irrepressible
Dangerous ground
Stop bossing me around
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
Take this chance right now
To be my leader
Lay it on me, wow
Make me smile from ear to ear
Shake me up and break me down
I've got my dancing shoes on
So make me move
'Til I cry out like a hound
A pretty bird sitting in her birdcage
Should be up in the air to fly
Now you're here trying to clip these wings
But that won't do, who the hell are you?
I'll say it loud
Step back from the scene of the crime

Stand behind the yellow line
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
The only time you can tell me what to do
Is when we're dancing
Take this chance right now
To be my leader
Lay it on me, wow
Make me smile from ear to ear
Shake me up and break me down
I've got my dancing shoes on

'Til I cry out like a hound
Shake your pepper
Shake your tail feather
Shake your money maker
Hell even shake your grandma
Let it all hang out
And just scream and shout
Like me, like me, like me
Take this chance right now
To be my leader
Lay it on me, wow
Make me smile from ear to ear
Shake me up and break me down
I've got my dancing shoes on
So make me move
'Til I cry out like a hound
