Play that funky music
Play that funky musicwhite boy
Play that funky music
Play that funky musicwhite boy
I’m back and I’m ringin’ the bell
A rockin’ on the mike while the fly girls yell
In ecstasy in the back of me
Well that’s my dj deshay cuttin’ all them z’s
Hittin’ hard and the girlies goin’ crazy
Vanilla’s on the mikeman I’m not lazy.
I’m lettin’ my drug kick in
It controls my mouth and I begin
To just let it flowlet my concepts go
My posse’s to the side yellin’go vanilla go!
Smooth ’cause that’s the way I will be
And if you don’t give a damnthen
Why you starin’ at me
So get off ’cause I control the stage
There’s no dissin’ allowed
I’m in my own phase
The girlies sa y they love me and that is ok
And I can dance better than any kid n’ play
Play that funky music come on come on
Play that funky musicwhite boy I can’t hear yousay it
Play that funky music say itsay itsay
Play that funky musicwhite boy itcome on
Yeaa little bit louder
Now come oncome on
Stage 2 — yea the one ya’ wanna listen to
It’s off my head so let the beat play through
So I can funk it up and make it sound good
1-2-3 yo — knock on some wood
For good luckI like my rhymes atrocious
Supercalafragilisticexpialidocious
I’m an effect and that you can bet
I can take a fly girl and make her wet.
I’m like samson — samson to delilah
There’s no denyin’you can try to hang
But you’ll keep tryin’ to get my style
Over and overpractice makes perfect
But not if you’re a loafer.
You’ll get nowhereno placeno timeno girls
Soon — oh my godhomebodyyou probably eat
Spaghetti with a spoon! come on and say it!
Play that funky music
Play that funky musicwhite boy
Play that funky music come on come on
Play that funky music white boy let’s do it
Vip. vanilla ice yepyepI’m comin’ hard like a rhino
Intoxicating so you stagger like a wino
So punks stop trying and girl stop cryin’
Vanilla ice is sellin’ and you people are buyin’
’cause why the freaks are jockin’ like crazy glue
Movin’ and groovin’ trying to sing along
All through the ghetto groovin’ this here song
Now you’re amazed by the vip posse.
Steppin’ so hard like a german nazi
Startled by the bases hittin’ ground
There’s no trippin’ on mineI’m just gettin’ down
SparkamaticI’m hangin’ tight like a fanatic
You trapped me once and I thought that
You might have it
So step down and lend me your ear
’89 in my time! you’90 is my year.

Your body’s gettin’ hotsoso I can smell it
