What It Is?

What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is?
Sure is funky
What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure is funky

Did I hear somebody say
"Down with the system"?
Shut your mouth
Or take your toy away
Children shouldn't play with bombs
Boom boom boom

Ain't no words to this song, ain't no words
You just dance and hum along
Ain't no words to this song, yeah
You just dance and hum along

Everybody sing yeah

What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure is funky
What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure looks funky

Did I hear somebody say
"Down with the system"?
Shhh-shut your mouth

Ain't no words to this song
You just dance and hum along
Ain't no words to my song people
You just dance and hum along

Everybody did it

What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure is funky
What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure is funky

Don't try to figure out what this song is about

Just put it on your box when you're feelin' down and out
It'll set your soul on fire

Ain't no words to this song
You just dance and hum along
Ain't no words to this song people
What it is?
You just dance and hum along

Music got my soul on fire

What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure is funky
What it is, what it is?
Somebody tell me
What it is, what it is?
Sure is funky

Did somebody say
"Sing a song, soul sister"?
