Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And we just want some place to rock
Rock and roll
Another town another show
And we ain't got no place to go
No place to go
We just want to
Raise the Roof get on up
That's right little girl shake that butt
Yeah just make it bump
Move that bootie little cutie back it up
Just make it bump
Raise your cup fill it up
make it bump
Just make it bump
Just make it bump
Just make it bump
Three O' Clock and we ain't threw
Don't tell me there's nothing to do
nothing to do
Now's the time I must say I'm
Ready to find some place to grind with you
Grind it with you
We just want to
Raise the Roof get on up
Come on everybody just make it bump
That's right little girl shake that butt
Yeah just make it bump
Move that bootie little cutie back it up
Just make it bump
Raise your cup fill it up
make it bump
Play some music turn the sound up
Call all your friends and do the round up
I'm like a toy I get all wound up
Just make it bump and shake the ground up
I'm loosing control I think I'm gonna break
I don't know how much more of this I can take
I wanna feal the ground shake
Three O' clock and we don't stop
And we just want some place to rock
Another town another show
And we ain't got no place to go
Raise the Roof get on up
Come on everybody just make it bump
That's right little girl shake that butt
Yeah just make it bump
Move that bootie little cutie back it up
Just make it bump
Raise your cup fill it up
Make it bump
Play some music turn the sound up
Call all your friends and do the round up
I'm like a toy I get all wound up
Just make it bump and shake the ground up
The song "Bump" by OPM is a high-energy rock and roll anthem about wanting to find a place to party and let loose. The lyrics describe the frustration of being in another town for a show but not having any place to go to have fun. The chorus encourages everyone to "raise the roof" and "make it bump", meaning to dance and party and have a good time. The song is filled with references to shaking booties and filling up cups, creating a vibrant atmosphere of joy and celebration. The bridge of the song exemplifies this, with the singer exclaiming that they are "losing control" and wanting to "shake the ground up".

I wanna feel the ground shake
I want the music and dancing to be so intense that the floor shakes
