One, two, three, (uh)!

My baby don’t mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure.
(Uh) But does she really wanna
But can’t stand to see me
Walk out the door.
Don’t try to fight the feelin’
‘Cause the thought alone
Is killing me right now.
(Uh) Thank God for mom and dad
For sticking two together
‘Cause we don’t know how. (Uh)

[Chorus]
Hey… Ya…
Hey Ya…
Hey… Ya…
Hey Ya…
Hey… Ya…
Hey Ya…
Hey… Ya…
Hey Ya…

You think you’ve got it
Oh, you think you’ve got it
But got it just don’t get it
Til’ there’s nothing at all. (Ah)
We get together
Oh, we get together
But separate’s always better
When there’s feelings involved. (Oh)
If what they say is “Nothing is forever”
Then what makes, then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes (what makes, what makes)
What makes love the exception?
So why-oh-why-oh why-oh-why-oh-why-oh
Are we so in denial
When we know we’re not happy here?
Y’all don’t wanna hear me; you just wanna dance.

[Chorus]
Hey Ya… (Oh oh)
Hey… Ya… [(Oh oh) Don’t want to meet your daddy (oh oh)]
Hey Ya… [Just want you in my Caddy (oh oh)]
Hey… Ya… [(Oh oh) Don’t want to meet yo’ mama (oh oh)]
Hey Ya… [Just want to make you cumma (oh oh)]
Hey… Ya… [I’m… (oh oh) I’m… (oh oh)]
Hey Ya… [I’m just being honest (oh oh) I’m just being honest]

Hey, alright now,
Alright now, fellas! (Yeah!)
Now what’s cooler than bein’ cool? (Ice Cold!)
I can’t hear ya,
I say what’s… what’s cooler than bein’ cool? (Ice Cold!)

Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright–
Okay, now ladies! (Yeah!)
Yeah we gonna break this thang down in just a few seconds
Now don’t have me break this thing down for nothin’
Now I wanna see y’all on yall’s baddest behavior!
Lend me some suga’, I am your neighbor!
Ahh, here we go now!

Shake it, shake, shake it,
Shake it (oh oh), shake, shake it,
Shake it, shake, shake it,
Shake it, shake it,
Shake (oh oh), shake it,
Shake it like a Polaroid picture.
Hey Ya.

Shake it, shake, shake it,
Shake it, shake, shake it,
Shake it, shake it,
Shake it (here we go), shake it,
Shake it like a Polaroid picture.

Now all the Beyonces and Lucy Luis
And baby dolls, get on the floor

You know what to do… (ha ha ha)
You know what to do…

[Chorus continues until fade]
