The Bar-Kays - Shut The Funk Up lyrics
[The Bar-Kays - Shut The Funk Up lyrics]
If you're the one that feels that
The soul sound ain't real
Then you're missing what we're giving
And could it be that you are
Afraid to face what's true
You'd better listen and pay attention
We love to play and sing so
That you can do your thing
All it takes is for you to be real
We want to make you smile
Let us groove you for a while
'Cause we're dealing with our feelings
If our message is getting through
Then here's what you gotta do
Stop your rapping, get to clapping
If you like our melody come
And sing along with me
Take our music but you can use it
If there's a feeling in your soul
That makes you want to explode
That's the first clue, to the new you
In our music you will find
It will educate your mind
Let it stimulate, we hope we motivate
Get on up or just shut the funk up
Get on up or just shut the funk up
Get funky
If our message is getting through then
Here's what you gotta do
Stop your rapping, get to clapping
If you like our melody come
And sing along with me
Take our music but you can use it
If there's a feeling in your soul
That makes you want to explode
That's the first clue, to the new you
In our music you will find
It will educate your mind
Let it stimulate, we hope we motivate
The soul sound ain't real
Then you're missing what we're giving
And could it be that you are
Afraid to face what's true
You'd better listen and pay attention
We love to play and sing so
That you can do your thing
All it takes is for you to be real
We want to make you smile
Let us groove you for a while
'Cause we're dealing with our feelings
If our message is getting through
Then here's what you gotta do
Stop your rapping, get to clapping
If you like our melody come
And sing along with me
Take our music but you can use it
If there's a feeling in your soul
That makes you want to explode
That's the first clue, to the new you
In our music you will find
It will educate your mind
Let it stimulate, we hope we motivate
Get on up or just shut the funk up
Get on up or just shut the funk up
Get funky
If our message is getting through then
Here's what you gotta do
Stop your rapping, get to clapping
If you like our melody come
And sing along with me
Take our music but you can use it
If there's a feeling in your soul
That makes you want to explode
That's the first clue, to the new you
In our music you will find
It will educate your mind
Let it stimulate, we hope we motivate
