Talkin' Back

(album: Gap Band IV - 1982)

One fat hen, a couple of ducks
Three brown bears, four running hares
Five fat Emilies
(You gonna dance)
Six simple Simons sitting on a stump
Seven Siamese sailors sailing the seven seas
Eight egotistical egotists
Eeking in and out of existence
Nine nibbling nibbling Nubians
Nibbling nibbling gnats, knuckles and nicotine
Ten tenacious turnabouts
Tenaciously tracking through
Thickly Thackeray Timber Town!

Ho-ho! We back at you again
WGAP, and y'all thought we was gone
Now dig!
Tweedly dee, tweedly dum
It's all about that bumping in your gums!
F-U-N for fun
Now will y'all sing that for me
Fun, say it!

If you want some fun
Then you got to let us know
Up jumped the bumping of your gums
Sucker and things, double jaw jacking
Say it again, fun!

If you want some fun
Then you got to let us know
Up jumped the bumping of your gums and things
Can you dig it
Stick to the script, say it again, y'all!

If you want some fun, ho!
Then you got to let us know
Great gosh almighty, say it!
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
Oh, yes, you gonna dance, sucker!

If you want some fun, F-U-N!
Then you got to let us know
Hit me with a one and then
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
It's about that talking back, sucker

It's about that talking back to me, baby
Close your mouth, boy!
Don't you dare talk back to me
I ain't mad, I ain't playing either, sucker

It's about that talking back to me, baby, ho!
Reaganomics, Reaganomics, stick to the script
You dig

It's alright, I can't stand it
I can't stand it either, sucker
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
You dig

It's alright, I can't stand it
I can't stand it either
Say great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
With the bumping in your gums, sucker
F-U-N

If you want some fun
Then you got to let us know
Hit me with a one and then
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it, ho!

If you want some fun
Then you got to let us know
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it
Oh, yeah, you gonna dance, sucker!
Check me out!

Oh, no, not chickens!
One fat hen, a couple of ducks
Three brown bears, four running hares
Five fat Emilies
Six simple Simons sitting on a stump
Seven Siamese sailors sailing the seven seas
Eight egotistical egotists
Eeking in and out of existence
Nine nibbling nibbling Nubians
Nibbling nibbling gnats, knuckles and nicotine
Ten tenacious turnabouts
Tenaciously tracking through
Thickly Thackeray Timber Town!

Ho! Hit me!

Yeah, we back at you again
And y'all thought we was gone
Great gosh almighty!
How could you think something like that?
F-U-N!
Ho-ho!

It's about that talking back
Something like double jaw jacking
Bumping of your gums
Say it again

If you want some fun
Then you got to let us know, ho!
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!

It's alright, I can't stand it
I can't stand it either
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!

Oh, we're gonna raise the roof
Off this sucker this evening
It's alright, I can't stand it either
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
Ho, ho!

Check me out
Bumping of the gums
Shame, shame on you!

You ain't got no business messing around
'Cause I don't feel like going way downtown
To buy you no new dresses and things
'Cause you've been bumping your gums
Say it again now!

If you want some fun, F-U-N!
Then you got to let us know
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!

151, a couple of ducks

Reaganomics, Reaganomics, stick to the script
This is true

I can't stand it
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
Now dig!

Now you can stomp your feet
And raise your hands
I want everybody to go crazy in the stands
Dance, sucker!
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!

Ho, Reaganomics!

You dig!
It's about that talking back to me, baby
You knew what you did
When you were doing what you were doing
When you did what you did and what you did
How you do it, I don't know what I said
Say it, sucker!

It's about that talking back to me, baby
But I can't stand it
Bumping of your gums, ho-ho!

It's about that talking back to me, baby
But I can't stand it
Bumping of your gums
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
Ho-ho!

It's about that talking back to me, baby
This is true, stick to the script
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
I ain't playing

It's about that talking back to me, baby
Close your mouth!
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
And get up and dance
Dance!

It's about that talking back to me, baby
I can't stand it either
Great gosh almighty, let me see you, baby
Let's get down with it!
Reaganomics, Reaganomics, this is true
Stick to the script...
