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'

13 posts	This is only true when the person "closing the case" knows that they are wrong and doesn't want to hear the opposing side. Which is kind of funny, considering I presented an entire argument based on theory of political correctness and the actual, literal meaning of the word "retarded" ("to cause to move slowly") yet you replied with a gigantic, enraged ball of incoherent words 'explaining' your outrage at people for misusing your conception of the word "retarded" (again: "to cause to move slowly") which, unfortunately, in my earlier argument I had beyond a shadow of a doubt disproved. Which, I believe, is not wrong, but rather right. Interesting, eh? So... next time, try reading the argument instead of assuming stupidly about it content? Please? As an aside, closing the case, while usually entailing someone being wrong and refusing to admit it thereof, can also be described as proving one's case beyond a shadow of a doubt or rebuttal. And you really think that two words are going to stop people? No, because apparently people such as yourself can't READ. And it makes me a dumb fuck, or rather, retarded, to tell people to shut the hell up when they have absolutely zero plausible rebuttal and/or argumentative skills whatsoever? Okay then, whatever, I guess I'm retarded. *WHICH, BY THE WAY, FOR STUPID PEOPLE: For the last damn* time, means to "cause to move slowly".** Ooh, that wasn't nice, I apologize sincerely.

21 posts	Go Kinneas! Not to make a bad rep. of myself on a site or anything, cuz usually the meanest thing i'll say to a person is "get the hell off me" ...but... What a bunch of uptight assholes! my god..do you all even realize that you're arguing about a SONG?!? its, what, 3 and a half minutes long? And here's a newsflash for ya.. There's this nice little document that states something about "freedom of choice". Yea. Ever hear of that? Its called the freaking Bill of RIGHTS! So if you don't like a song, then you, my friends, have the right to either (1) turn off the song (2) dont buy the CD or (3) don't watch MTV/VH1 when it comes on. I know there's also something called "freedom of opinion" which is all fine and dandy, i respect that, but you all need to lighten up just a teensy bit. Have a wonderful day/life. And put a smile on.
