This hereâ²s a jam for all the fellas
Tryin' to do what those ladies tell us
Get shot down â²cause you're overzealous
Play hard to get, females get jealous
Ok, smarty, go to a party
Girls are scantily clad and showin' body
A chick walks by you wish you could sex her
But youâ²re standinâ² on the wall like you was Poindexter
Next day's function, high class luncheon
Food is served and youâ²re stone cold munchin'
Music comes on, people start to dance
But then you ate so much you nearly split your pants
A girl starts walkinâ², guys start gawkin'
Sits down next to you and starts talkinâ²
Says she wanna dance 'cause she likes the groove
So come on, fatso, and just bust a move
You're on a mission and youâ²re wishinâ²
Someone could cure your lonely condition
Lookin' for love in all the wrong places
No fine girls, just ugly faces
From frustration, first inclination
Is to become a monk and leave the situation
But every dark tunnel has a lighter hope
So donâ²t hang yourself with a celibate rope
New movie's showinâ², so you're goinâ²
Could care less about the five you're blowin'
Theatre gets dark just to start the show
Then you spot a fine woman sittinâ² in your row
Sheâ²s dressed in yellow, she says "hello
Come sit next to me, you fine fellow!"
You run over there without a second to lose
And what comes next? hey, bust a move!
If you want it, you got it
If you want it, baby, you got it, (just bust a move!)
If you want it, you got it
If you want it, baby, you got it
In the city, ladies look pretty
Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty
Tell a funny joke just to get some play
Then you try to make a move and she says, "no way"
Girls are fakin', goodness sakinâ²
They want a man who brings home the bacon
Got no money and you got no car
Then you got no woman and there you are
Some girls are sophistic, materialistic
Looking for a man makes them opportunistic
They're lyinâ² on the beach perpetratin' a tan
So that a brother with money can be their man
So on the beach youâ²re strollin', real high-rollin'
Everything you have is yours and not stolen
A girl runs up with somethinâ² to prove
So donâ²t just stand there, bust a move!
If you want it, you got it
If you want it, baby, you got it (just bust a move)
If you want it, you got it
If you want it, baby, you got it (break it down for me fellas)
Your best friend Harry has a brother Larry
In five days from now he's gonna marry
Heâ²s hopin' you can make it there if you can
â²Cause in the ceremony you'll be the best man
You say neato, check your libido
And roll to the church in your new tuxedo
The bride walks down just to start the wedding
And thereâ²s one more girl you won't be getting
So you start thinkin', then you start blinkinâ²
A bride maid looks and thinks that youâ²re winkin'
She thinks youâ²re kinda cute so she winks back
And now you're feelin really fine â²cause the girl is stacked
Reception's jumpinâ², bass is pumpin'
Look at the girl and your heart starts thumpin'
Says she wants to dance to a different groove
Now you know what to do, G, bust a move!
If you want it, you got it, ah
If you want it, baby, you got it (just bust a move), ah
If you want it, you got it, ah
If you want it, baby, you got it (move it, boy)
