Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey Timbo
Yeah
Don't you hate it when a dude starts actin' up
Like this fella over here with his hands on the scuff
Be muggin' and carryin' on

Hey JT
Yeah
Why these dudes keep starin' at us
I dunno but Ima bout to find out wassup
Be easy don't take it to rough
Talk to 'em

I'm not being cocky
I just noticed that she was looking at me
Chill homeboy be cool
Cause there ain't no reason for all that fussin' at me
Its just gettin' started
And there's a lot of fish around
Here just shakin' they jelly
I ain't tryin' to be rude dude but we tryin' to tear up the place come on

There ain't nothing to it
If you wanna get down then we can do it-do it
There ain't nothing to it
Get out your seat
Why
You ain't glued to it
Be easy and watch that, tone
Keep stepping with your new suede shoes, on
Boys and girls lets all sing along
Now everybody just get on the good foot

Get on the good foot

Now, how am I supposed to know that she's yours
She ain't got no ring on her finger
It ain't our fault homeboy that your girl likes to wonder and linger
Your actin' so serious
We just danced I ain't even ask for her number

Don't be mad 'cause we the life of the party
We ain't tryin' to hurt nobody talk to 'em

I'm not being cocky
I just noticed that she was looking at me
Chill homeboy be cool
Cause there ain't no reason for all that fussin' at me
Its just gettin' started
And there's a lot of fish around
Here just shakin' they jelly
I ain't tryin' to be rude dude
But we tryin' to tear up the place
Come on
There ain't nothing to it
If you wanna get down then we can do it, do it
There ain't nothing to it
Get out your seat
Why
You ain't glued to it
Be easy and watch that, tone
Keep stepping with your new suede shoes, on
Boys and girls lets all sing along
Now everybody just get on the good foot

Get on the good foot

If you keep on pressin' at me
(That don't bother me none)
Cause I see every fish in the sea
(Ima get the baddest one)
You take yourself so seriously
(But you don't impress me none)

Don't be alarmed boy, we came to do no harm boy
Talk to 'em

I'm not being cocky
I just noticed that she was looking at me
Chill homeboy be cool
Cause there ain't no reason for all that fussin' at me
Its just gettin' started
And there's a lot of fish around
Here just shakin' they jelly
I ain't tryin' to be rude dude
But we tryin' to tear up the place
Come on
There ain't nothing to it
If you wanna get down then we can do it, do it
There ain't nothing to it
Get out your seat
Why
You ain't glued to it
Be easy and watch that, tone
Keep stepping with your new suede shoes, on

LYRICS

Hey, Timbo? (Yeah?)
Don't you hate it when a dude starts actin' up
Like this fella over here with his hand on his cup
Mean muggin' and carryin' on? (Come on)
Hey, JT? (Yeah?)
Why these dudes keep starin' at us?
I don't know, but I'm 'bout to find out what's up
Be easy, don't take it too rough, talk to 'em
I'm not bein' cocky
I just noticed that she was lookin' at me
Chill homeboy, be cool
'Cause there ain't no reason for all that fussin' at me
It's just gettin' started
And there's a lot of fish around here just shakin' their jelly
(I ain't tryna be rude, dude)
(But we tryna tear up the place, come on)
It ain't nothin' to it, if you wanna get down
Then we can do it, do it
It ain't nothin' to it, get out your seat (Why?)
You ain't glued to it
Be easy and watch that tone
Keep steppin' with your new suede shoes on
Boys and girls, let's all sing along
Everybody just get on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Now, how am I supposed to know that she's yours?
She ain't got no ring on her finger
It ain't our fault homeboy, that your girl likes to wander and linger
You're actin' so serious, we just danced
I ain't even ask for her number
Don't be mad 'cause we the life of the party
We ain't really tryna hurt nobody, talk to 'em
I'm not bein' cocky
I just noticed that she was lookin' at me
Chill homeboy, be cool
'Cause there ain't no reason for all that fussin' at me
It's just gettin' started
And there's a lot of fish around here just shakin' their jelly
(I ain't tryna be rude, dude)
(But we tryna tear up the place, come on)
It ain't nothin' to it, if you wanna get down
Then we can do it, do it

Everybody just get on the good foot
Get on the good foot
(Oh, no) Get on the good foot
If you keep on pressin' with me (That don't bother me none)
'Cause I see every fish in the sea (I'ma kiss the baddest one)
Take yourself so seriously (But you don't impress me none)
Don't be alarmed, boy
We came to do no harm, boy
Talk to 'em
I'm not bein' cocky
I just noticed that she was lookin' at me
Chill homeboy, be cool
'Cause there ain't no reason for all that fussin' at me
It's just gettin' started
And there's a lot of fish around here just shakin' their jelly
(I ain't tryna be rude, dude)
(But we tryna tear up the place, come on)
