Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body (Rock your body)
Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body

Let me see your body rock
Shaking it from the bottom and top
Freak to what the DJ drop
We be the ones to make it hot (to make it hot)
Electric shock, energy like a billion watts
Space be boomin', the speakers pop
Galactic combin' missed a spot
We bumpin' in your parking lot

When you're comin' up in the spot
Don't bring nothin' we call pink dot
'Cause we burnin' around the clock
Hit the lights and then turn them off
If you bring that don't make you stop
Like the jungle we run the block
No one rollin' the way we rock, way we rock

I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock, right, now

I wanna da I wanna dance in the lights
I wanna ro I wanna rock your body
I wanna go I wanna go for a ride
Hop in the music and rock your body right

Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body (Rock that body)
Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body
Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body (Rock your body)
Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body

Superfly ladies,
All of my superfly ladies
All of my superfly ladies
All of my super, superfly ladies

Yeah, you could be big bone, long as you feel like your own
You could be the model type, skinny with no appetite
Short, stacked, black or white
Long as you do what you like
Body outta sight
Body outta sight (Body body outta sight)

She does the two-step,
And the tongue drop,
She does the cabbage patch
And the Bus Stop

She like electro (electro), she wrote hip-hop (hip-hop)
She like the reggae,
She feel punk rock
She wear samba and the mambo
She like to break dance and calypso
Getta little crazy,
Getta little stupid
Getta little crazy-crazy-crazy

I wanna da I wanna dance in the lights (I wanna dance in your light)
I wanna ro I wanna rock your body (Rock your body)
I wanna go I wanna go for a ride (You wanna go for a ride?)
Hop in the music and rock your body right

Rock your body right
Rock your body right

Come on, yeah!

Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body (Come on, yeah!)
Rock that body, come on come on, rock that body (Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock!)

Go oh!
Let's go oh oh oh oh oh oh!
Let's go oh oh oh oh oh oh!
Let's go oh oh oh oh oh oh!

I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock
I wanna, I wanna rock
Let's go oh oh oh oh oh oh!
I wanna, I wanna rock
I wanna, I wanna rock
Let's go oh oh oh oh oh oh!
Let's go oh oh oh oh oh oh!

I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock right now, now, now, rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock right now
I wanna, I wanna rock, right, now
