Lyrics
MR. J. MILLS, HE'S THE MAN WHO KNOWS
WHEN THE BAND GETS HOT AND IT'S ON THE GO
EVERYBODY HAWKIN' THEM EIGHTH NOTE BEATS
HERE'S THE WAY TO GET MORE HEAT
CUT IT IN HALF, CUT IT RIGHT IN HALF
DRUMMER AND THE BASS GOT TO CUT IT IN HALF
CUT IT IN HALF, TRIM IT TO THE BONE
DR. JOHNSON GONNA BRING IT ON HOME.
(BREAK)
ON NIGHT LAST WEEK THEY'RE JOOKIN IN TOWN
TEARING IT UP BURNING IT DOWN
RHYTM SECTION BEARCAT BEAR
J. MILLS WHOOPIN' THAT PICCALO SNARE
CUTIN HALF, CUT IT RIGHT IN HALF
DRUMMER AND THE BASS DONE CUT IT IN HALF
CUT IT IN HALF, TRIM IT TO THE BONE
JOEL JOHNSON BRINGIN' IT ON HOME
(BREAK)
THESE YOUNG GIRLS HURRYING ON THE WAY TO TOWN
THE GET TOO EXCITED AND THEY CAN'T SLOW DOWN
AIN'T NO BIG THING WHATCHA CAN DO
CUT IT IN HALF, CUT IT HALF IN TWO
CUT IT IN HALF, TRIM IT TO THE BONE
TAKE IT REAL EASY, BRING HER ON HOME
(BREAK)
