Obá obá obá
Oariá raiô
Obá obá obá

Heated like a sauna
Penetrating through your body armor
Rhythmically we massage ya
With hip hop mixed up with samba
With samba
So yes, yes, y'all (yes, y'all, y'all)
You know we never stop we never rest, y'all (rest, y'all, y'all)
The Black Eyed Peas'll keep it funky fresh, y'all (fresh, y'all, y'all)
And we won't stop until we get y'all, 'til we get y'all sayin'
Oariá raiô
Obá obá obá

Obá obá obá
Peter Piper picked peppers
But Tab rocked rhymes-a

Heavy rotation played by every kind-a
Radio stations blastin' every mind-a
We crossing boundaries like everyday
To rock ya body, Bobbie be on the R and the Bay

Gotta ride the waves and keep a tight relation
With my team keep it moving, and doing it right
Up in the lab every day 'til daylight
That's the way things move in this monkey business
(We took an old samba song and remixed it)

The lyrics to Sérgio Mendes's song "Mas que nada" are a mix of Portuguese and English. The repeated lines "Oariá raiô" and "Obá obá obá" are traditional Brazilian phrases often used in samba music to express joy and excitement. The verses sung by the Black Eyed Peas are in English and reference their own party-starting, genre-crossing style, as well as their admiration for Mendes and his blend of samba and jazz.
The music itself is a fusion of several Brazilian styles, including samba, maracatu, and preto velho (a type of traditional African Brazilian music). The song's rhythm is fast and upbeat, with a prominent piano riff that is both catchy and complex. In the Black Eyed Peas version, a modern hip hop beat is overlayed onto the original track.
The lyrics could be interpreted as a celebration of music's power to unify people across cultures and languages. The Black Eyed Peas and Mendes come from different backgrounds and genres, but their shared love for Brazilian music brings them together to create a unique and infectious song.
