Let's get it started in here
Let's get it started (ha)
Let's get it started in here
Let's get it started (ha)
Let's get it started in here
And the base keeps runnin' runnin'
And runnin' runnin'

You say you don't go
I say take me out!
I say you don't show
Don't move, time is slow
I say take me out!

That's where I want to be! (gimme, gimme)
Living in Beverly Hills

Rolling like a celebrity! (gimme, gimme)
Living in Beverly Hills
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then you'd understand
And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Now don't you worry we'll all float on
Alright
