The Red Hot Chili Peppers' original founder and guitarist, Slovak, was replaced in 1984 by Jack Sherman, while Slovak and Irons recorded music with their band at the time, "What Is This?" Upon Slovak's return, Sherman was fired from the band.
Slovak did not actually appear on the self-titled debut album, despite performing and writing the content with the band prior to recording. He was replaced by Jack Sherman for the recording of the album, but returned to the band for second album, Freaky Styley. The third album, Uplift Mofo Party Plan, is in fact the only album to include all four founding members. After this, Slovak overdosed on heroin and was replaced on future albums (Mother's Milk, Blood Sugar Sex Magik - on which Frusciante provides guitars, One Hot Minute - Navarro, Californication and By the Way - Frusciante) Frusciante is also on 2006's Stadium Arcadium.
Following Slovak's death of a heroin overdose, a young John Frusciante took over as guitarist in 1988. Frusciante, however, quit the band in 1992 due in part to his sadness at the band becoming so successful in such a short time; complex personal issues, involving an addiction to heroin, were also a factor. He was then replaced by Arik Marshall. Approximately a year later, Marshall left the band, to be replaced by former Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro.
After the release of 1995's One Hot Minute, Navarro's escalating drug habits became a subject of conflict. In 1998, Navarro was fired from the band, to be taken over by none other than former guitarist, Frusciante, who remained in the band until 2008, when he quietly took his leave on good terms with the other members.
Frusciante has also been making solo albums for a number of years. His new album with the band Ataxia came out May 2007, and is titled Automatic Writing II.
In 2003 Flea played bass on The Mars Volta's album Deloused In The Comatorium. Frusciante added guitar to tracks on Deloused and 2005's Frances The Mute. He also played rhythm guitar on The Mars Volta's Amputechture. Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez, guitarist for The Mars Volta, appeared on Stadium Arcadium, playing the solo on "Especially In Michigan".
A new era in the band's history took place due Frusciante's departure in 2009. He was replaced by Josh Klinghoffer, who had already played shows as a second guitarist with the band during their 2007 tour dates.
In 2011, the band released I'm With You, their tenth studio album, and their first with guitarist Josh Klinghoffer.

Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
One reason why I got you for
A-woman is that you can do the moveable
Kitchen or bedroom or bathroom floor
Keep it moving 'cause I need the hardcore
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Soft, she's off and left, now I'm a-coming
I'm feeling in the ghetto 'cause that's my trouble
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance

Another reason why I love your ass
You're dancing like everyday could be your last
Do ya do ya do ya wanna dance
Let's get it on like black trash
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Soft, she's off and left, now I'm a-coming
I'm feeling in the ghetto 'cause that's my trouble
I met her on the school yard and
She was such a cool card
She took me for a fool
Because I acted like a bodyguard
Oh Yohanna love, my Yohanna love
She was just the cutest thing
My god that I have ever seen
Tearin' up my seratonin
Messing with my dopamine
Oh Yohanna love, my Yohanna love
Just about the time
That I was feeling fine again
She walked into the room
Wearing nothing but a cardigan
Oh Yohanna love, my Yohanna love
She knew what she was doin'
When she told me no she would
Never let the perfect message
In and get the perfect screwin'
Oh Yohanna love oh oh
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a phfat dance
Do a do a do a phfat dance
Number three reasons why I'm in your house
Hot butter melts across your mouth
Dancing and a-dancing, and a dancing machine
Somebody move, somebody scream
Yeah
One reason why I got you floored
A-woman is that you can do the move amore
Kitchen or bedroom or bathroom floor
Keep it moving ‘cause I need the hardcore
I need the hardcore
I need the hardcore
I need the hardcore
Hardcore

Cry Slowly
DO A FAT DANCE 💃
Anthony Moreira
conheci esse som com um br safado zuando uma gordinha,amei o som
Dane White
Im not crazy about this version. The background vocals solo’ed are really strange for the hook. Probably should’ve kept Anthony’s lead for the whole. Still a sick song though
Theddison
Makes it more funk-y though which imo fits the song better.

Chad after the song ends: Ow drop it
mottchspiceelm

Brendan Olsen
