D.M.S.R. Lyrics
[Intro]
Ow!
[Verse 1]
Everybody
Get on the floor
What the hell'd you come here for?
Girl, it ain't no use
You might as well get loose
Work your body like a whore
Say, everybody
Get on the beat
We're gonna show you mothers how to scream
People everywhere, loosen up your hair
Take a deeper breath and sing along with me, yes
Are you ready?
[Chorus]
Everybody, everybody, ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
Oh, everybody, say ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
[Verse 2]
Everybody (Everybody), loosen up
Shake it like you just don't care (Shake it like you just don't care)
Nevermind your friends
Girl, it ain't no sin
To strip right down to your underwear
I say, everybody, mmh (Everybody)
Screw the masses
We only want to have some fun (I only wanna have some fun)
I say do whatever we want
Wear lingerie to a restaurant
Police ain't got no gun
You don't have to run
Ow!
[Verse 1]
Everybody
Get on the floor
What the hell'd you come here for?
Girl, it ain't no use
You might as well get loose
Work your body like a whore
Say, everybody
Get on the beat
We're gonna show you mothers how to scream
People everywhere, loosen up your hair
Take a deeper breath and sing along with me, yes
Are you ready?
[Chorus]
Everybody, everybody, ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
Oh, everybody, say ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
[Verse 2]
Everybody (Everybody), loosen up
Shake it like you just don't care (Shake it like you just don't care)
Nevermind your friends
Girl, it ain't no sin
To strip right down to your underwear
I say, everybody, mmh (Everybody)
Screw the masses
We only want to have some fun (I only wanna have some fun)
I say do whatever we want
Wear lingerie to a restaurant
Police ain't got no gun
You don't have to run
[Chorus]
Everybody, ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
Everybody say ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
Ooh
Everybody, clap your hands now
All the white people, clap your hands on the four now
One, two, three
One, two, three
One, two, three
One, two, three
Listen to me
[Verse 3]
I don't wanna be a poet
'Cause I don't wanna blow it
I don't care to win awards
All I wanna do is dance (Yeah)
Play music, sex, romance
And try my best to never get bored (Oh)
If you feel all right, lemme hear you scream
Yeah
Everybody, ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance
Everybody say ooh (Ooh)
All right (All right)
Dance, music, sex, romance

And try my best to never get bored (Oh)
If you feel all right, lemme hear you scream
