The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Welcome posse We're kicking up Once again, we have the plan Driving you wild, as good as we can Don't stop us now, we're gonna make you move Raving outside to the passionate groove So I wanna check the microphone I wanna check the microphone I wanna check, I wanna check The Rick, the Ferris and MC H.P. Scooter, back in the U.K. Yes, somewhere in England, banging the bass Join our trip to this weird place Back to nature where we can be Faster and harder, louder and free I wanna check the microphone I wanna check the microphone I wanna check, I wanna check The Rick, the Ferris and MC H.P. Scooter, back in the U.K. We started in 1994 In 1996, we're still on the case Hold tight crew Together no one can stop us now So I wanna check the microphone I wanna check the microphone I wanna check, I wanna check The birds, the trees, the clouds, the seas The Rick, The Ferris and MC H.P.
