Rock ya body, come on come on rock that body (Rock yo body)
Rock ya body, come on come on rock, ya, body!
Let me see your body rock
Shakin' from the bottom to the top
Freak to what the Dj drop
We be the ones to make it hot, (To make it hot)
Electric shock, energy like a million watts
Space be boom and the speakas pop
Galactic gone and miss the spot
We bumpin' in your parkin' lot!

When you comin' up in the spot
Don't bring nothin' we,
'Cause we running around the clock
Hit the lights and then turn them off
If you bring that don't make you soft

She like the Reggae, she feel Punk Rock
She like the Samba, and the Mambo
She like to Break Dance, and Calypso
Get a little crazy, get a little stupid
Get a little crazy (little crazy, little crazy)
I wanna dance, I wanna dance in the light
I wanna rock, I wanna rock yo body
I wanna go, I wanna go for a ride
Up in the music & rock yo body right

The best era of The Black Eyed Peas. They were far ahead from their time tbh. Even today in 2023 this song feels futuristic!

Man I miss the late 2000s and early 2010s mainstream music. It really all went downhill in the middle of the 2010s for some reason. The underground music scenes and less known artists are doing extremely creative things while new mainstream tracks feel like rotten leftover shit that are meant to maximize tikitokification of the track.
