The Creep
The Lonely Island Lyrics

When you're out in the club and you see a fly girl Do the Creep (hah) Do the Creep (hah) And if you wanna make friends at the ATM Do the Creep (hoo) Do the Creep (hah)
The song encourages people to perform the 'creep' dance move when they are out having fun or conducting financial transactions, as a way to make a new connection or stand out in a subtle way.

Well, we got a new dance so get up on your feet It's real easy to do, and it's called 'The Creep' Let your hands flap around like a Marionette Pop your knees up and down, sh-sh-shaking your neck Now pull your waistband up like you expectin' a flood And slick your hair down flat like it was covered in mud Trim up your pencil mustache and pop them peepers Put this in your speakers; you a certified creeper
The lyrics explain how to actually perform the 'creep' dance move, which involves various awkward and exaggerated motions with one's body and appearance, as a way to embrace one's inner weirdness and stand out.

When you see a country peach, laying out at the beach Do the Creep (hah) Do the Creep (hah) And when a fine PYT walks in front of your tree Do the Creep (hoo) Do the Creep (hah)
The song suggests performing the 'creep' dance move when encountering attractive people, in a humorous and lighthearted way that implies the person can embrace their own quirks and imperfections without taking themselves too seriously.

I was six years old when I started creepin' My parents took it to their room and I started peepin' You can't imagine their surprise when they lifted their heads And saw my little ass creepin' at the foot of the bed Yeah they knew I was a creep, since the day I was born Came poppin' out my momma like some kettle corn Yeah the doctor caught my head and he started freakin' 'Cause I came out clean - and I came out creepin'!
The lyrics describe the main character's lifelong demeanor and mentality as a 'creep', implying he has always been interested in observing others in a strange and unexpected way that can make people feel uncomfortable or self-conscious. This is portrayed as a humorous quirk rather than a serious character flaw.

When I was a girl, I creeped in the boys' locker room Hide deep inside - it was my little creep stalker room As they disrobed, I was oogling and oggling Little did they know, that for me, they were modeling And I would laugh, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha And they would dance, la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la So pop-pop-pop your peepers, And tweak out your sneakers Don't sleep, come on get your Creep on with me!
The lyrics describe a humorous and exaggerated scenario where a young girl enters a boys' locker room to observe them undressing, revealing a bizarre voyeuristic desire that doesn't harm anyone and is played for laughs. The message is that people should be themselves and embrace their quirks, even if they are unconventional or unpopular.

Go on, get to sweatin' off a bride at her wedding Do the Creep (hah) And do the Creep (hah) And when you sneak into a wake, and you see a beefcake Do the Creep (hoo) And do the Creep (hah) And when the judge is a hottie and you can't control your body Do the Creep (hah) Do the Creep (hah)
The song continues to suggest humorous and exaggerated scenarios where performing the 'creep' dance move would be appropriate, such as at a wedding, a funeral, or a courtroom, showing the absurdity of conformist social norms while celebrating individuality and spontaneity.

So, get your knees flexin', and your arms T-rexin', And Creep (hoo) Do the Creep! (hah) And don't forget to smile!
The song ends with a final call to action to embrace one's inner 'creep', to keep moving and acting in strange and unexpected ways that break the monotony of everyday life, and to do it all with a smile and a sense of joy and fun.
