The Pussycats Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Oh)
(Yeah)
(Come on)
There's a new groove
That's going around.
You don't have to dance,
You can do it sittin' down.
You can get the groove
By clappin' your hands.
It's easy. Anybody can.

Come on now.
Come on now.

That's all you've got to do.

Come on I'll tell you
What the groove is all about.
Just clap your hands
Come on stand up and shout.
It's easy and it's a lot of fun
Everybody's doin' it from eight to eighty-one

Come on now (clap your hands)
Come on now (clap your hands)

England, {?}
People all over the world are clappin' hands.
In Russia too, even in Japan,
Everyone feels better when they're
Clappin' their hands.

There's a new groove,
Clappin' your hands.
You can do it.
Everybody can.
It's easy.
Just clap your hands.
You can do it.
Everybody can.
