Oariá raiô
Obá obá obá
Oariá raiô
Obá obá obá

Mas que nada
Black Eyed Peas came to make it hotter
We be the party starters
Bubblin' up just like lava, like lava
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
Oariá raiô
Obá obá obá

Peter Piper picked peppers
But Tab rocked rhymes-a
1, 2, 3, 4, several times-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
We got we got Tab magnifications
Tab magnified like every day

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 (la la la la la)
Oariá raiô
Obá obá obá

Drop hot hot be my daily operation
Got to put in work in this crazy occupation
Gotta keep it movin' (that's the motivation)
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)

Mas que nada
Sai da minha frente
Que eu quero passar
Pois o samba esta animado
O que eu quero e sambar
Este samba, que e misto de maracatu
E samba de preto velho
Samba de preto tu

The Peas and Sergio Mendes heating up samba

Не волнуйтесь, я перевел для вас текст:
Оо Мария ооо
Ура ура ура
Оария скат
Ура ура ура

Но ничего
Black Eyed Peas пришел, чтобы сделать его еще жарче.
Мы победили стартеров вечеринки
Бурлит, как лава.
Как лава, нагревай ее, как сауну.
Проникновение в ваш бронежилет
Ритмично мы сообщаем вам
С хип-хопом, смешанным с самбой.
С самбой, так что да, да, да
Ты знаешь, мы никогда не остановимся
Мы никогда не отдыхаем
Черноглазый горох сохраняет его свежесть и свежесть.
И мы не остановимся, пока не получим тебя, пока не получим тебя.

Оария скат
Ура ура ура
Оария скат
Ура ура ура

Питер Пайпер собирал перец, но Таб потрясал рифмами
1,2,3 несколько раз
Тяжелое вращение, производимое всеми видами
Радиостанций, благословляющих каждый разум
И мы пересекаем границы, как каждый день
Tu papi papi пара в r n b
У нас есть вкладка "Увеличение" увеличена
Как каждый день
Так что да, да, все
Ты знаешь, мы никогда не останавливаемся, мы никогда не отдыхаем, да, да
Черноглазый горох сохраняет его свежесть и свежесть.
И мы не остановимся, пока не получим тебя, пока не получим тебя.
Сайин

Оария скат
Ура-ура-ура (ла-ла-ла-ла-ла)
Оария скат
Ура ура ура

Будь горячим, горячим, будь моей ежедневной работой.
Надо исправить это безумное занятие
Надо продолжать двигаться, вот мотивация
Надо кататься на волнах и поддерживать крепкие отношения.
Моя команда продолжает двигаться и делает все правильно.
Я был в лаборатории каждый день до рассвета
Вот как обстоят дела в этом обезьяньем бизнесе.
Мы взяли старую песню самбы и сделали на нее ремикс.

Но ничего
Прочь с дороги
я хочу пройти
Потому что самба живая
Я хочу самбу
Эта самба
Что смешано с маракату
И старая черная самба
Самба в черном ты

Но ничего, мы заставим тебя чувствовать себя немного горячее
Горошек и Серхио Мендес разогревают самбаааа
Бадабабабабабаааааа
Серхио, играй на пианино, Серджио, играй на своем йо-йо-йо-йо
Фортепиано (эхо)

Проверьте это

Оария скат
Ура-ура-ура (ла-ла-ла-ла-ла)
Оария скат
Ура-ура-ура (ла-ла-ла-ла-ла)

Оария скат
Ура ура ура

Эта самба
Что смешано с маракату
Это старая черная самба
Ты, черная самба (ла-ла-ла-ла)
