Song lyrics
Lets get retarded in here 

And the bass keeps runnin', runnin and runnin', runnin'
And runnin', runnin' and runnin', runnin'
And runnin', runnin' and runnin', runnin' 
And runnin', runnin' and runnin', runnin' and..

In this context, there's no disrespect 
So when I bust my rhyme 
You break your necks 
We got five minutes for this to disconnect 
From all intellect and let the rhythm effect 

Apt to lose this inhibition 
Follow your intuition 
Free your inner soul 
And break away from tradition 

Cause when we be out 
Girl, it's gonna be that 
You wouldn't believe how 
Wow s**t out 
Burnin' till it's burned out 
Turn it till it’s turned out 
Act up from north, west, east, south 

Everybody (yeah) everybody (yeah) 
Let's get into it (yeah) get stupid
(Come on) get retarded (come on) get retarded (yeah) get retarded 

Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 

Lose control, all body, all soul 
Don’t move too fast people, just take it slow 
Don't get ahead, just jump into it 
Y'all hit a body, the Peas’ll do it 

Get started, get stupid
Don't worry 'bout it people, we’ll walk you through it 
Step by step, like if you’re in for new kid 
Inch by inch, with the new solution 
Transmit hits, with no delusion 
The feeling's irresistible and that's how we move it 

C'mon! 

Everybody (yeah) everybody (yeah) 
Let's get into it (yeah) get stupid
(Come on) get retarded (come on) get retarded (yeah) get retarded 

Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 

(yeah) 
Runnin', runnin' and runnin', runnin'

C'mon y'all, let's get cuckoo (uh huh) 
Let's get cuckoo (in here) 
Right now get cuckoo (uh huh) 
Let's get cuckoo (in here) 
Right now get cuckoo (uh huh) 
Let's get cuckoo (in here) 

Oh, oh, oh
Ya ya ya.....

Let's get ill, that's the deal 
Apt the gade, and we’ll bring the butt doc drill 
(Just) lose your mind, this is the time 
Y'all guessed this drill, just to bang your spine

(Just) bob that head like epilepsy 
Up inside your club, or in your Bentley 
Get messy 
Ah, this sick y'all mind faster than another head trip 
(So) come now y'all, don't correct it
Let's get ig'nant, let's get happy 

Everybody (yeah) everybody (yeah) 
Let's get into it (yeah) get stupid
(Come on) get retarded (come on) get retarded (yeah) get retarded 

Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 
Let's get retarded in (ha) let's get retarded in here 

Let's get cuckoo (uh huh) 
We cuckoo (in here) 
Let's get cuckoo (uh huh) 
We cuckoo (in here) 
We cuckoo (uh huh) 
We cuckoo O O O 
Let's (ya, ya, ya....)

[till fade]
Runnin', runnin' and runnin', runnin'

"Oh good. Another dumbfuck who has the internet"

Using language like that was pretty low and is not considered "cool" anymore. You most likely feed on other people's sadness to make your life look better! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

Mmmm thanks. I don't feed off people's sadness. I feed off Double Cheeseburgers and Pepsi. I didn't say I was cool. That's how I talk.

people people people the word "retarted" has always been offensive wake up!!! Tell me who the heck hasn't said to someone "omg you are so retarted" or "you retart" okay? So why are we complaning when a Awsome group like BEP says it in there song...hmm. Well if your "offened" by this song then you have problems beacuse why are you offened by a word that is already offensive? WAKE UP PEOPLE your acting like they are talking about You!!...I have a mentally disabled person in my family and im sure is hell not pissed ...heck when I played the song he thought it was cool...::shock:: yea so there is no true harm being done...it's a song...it's going die out in like another week or 2
THE SONG IS A MEDIFORE (spelled wrong i kno)
BEP ROCKS

Look, you guys can call me whatever you like, name calling over the net is pretty sad... kgoose, that superduperkatie didn't have to use language such as "dumbfuck" it's not that big of a deal, i was merely stating my thoughts - superduperkatie was way out of line... you guys get so wound up so easily - chill out!! By the number of posts that the two of you have made it's clear that you enjoy putting others down as you both tried to do with me - I'm not going to retaliate because i was taught to do better than that.

Yep gracie... you got me figured out. I can't hide it anymore. I love cutting people down. But dumbfuck is still not out of line. Not too bad of a word if you ask me.

No people, if you look up RETARDED in the dictionary, it says delayed or slow. My sister is memntally challenged, and if she knew what that meant, it would deeply insult her. This song disgusts me. I burned it thinking it was lets get it started, but when I heard the lyrics, I turned it off. People, dont you understand that that is not "letting free" of "being carefree", its actually offending someone, otherwise, they would play it on the radio.. I dont want to hear any more of dis song. Y'all are fucking nuts if you think this is a song with good lyrics -y'all disgust me

I think this song is alright... it gets really annoying though... I'm talking about the Let's get it Started 1 though. And 2 answer the question about y they changed the title of the song is bcuz I think that they wanted 2 use the song as a song they would use 4 sports, but they thought it would sound better with the title change... Don't listen 2 me if u hear sumthin about y they changed the title of the song and it's not my reason...


I do kind of think the title Let's get "retarted" is offensive bcuz if a retarted person heard that, they would get offended, and they wouldn't understand it meant sumthin completely different..

i dont really think that retarded is that offencive. even though my little brother and my best friends little brother are both autistic. for you ignorant people, youd call them retarded. i personally think the lets get it started version is better. but if black eyed peas really was retarded, i dont think that theyd wanna be anymore.

Have you people all lived under a rock for the last decade? "Retarded" is a completely un-PC term and should not be used lightly as celebrities seem to be doing lately. (BEP, Britney, Lindsay Lohan, etc.)
