Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dip and galang, dip and stand up
Body basic, it won't dance more though
Dip, galang, stand up
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

So we just dip, (Get down, get down)
Galang, (Feel, get down)
Stand up, (Get down, get down)
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

Girls ah sit down and watch me
They want them stooshie
Movement do I look bashie
And me stooshie want to scratch me

Me have big booty
They sweet like tutti frutti
Licks you dance like cherry
Angels and that's why I'm screeching

What I wait among the pressure
Jump and sing flair and pattern
Body freeze and I pitch you up
Then boy, easy flick her off

'Cause of this some girls get envy
Even them try mess up your party
Love, but be warned if you beat me
There is no need to compete

So we just dip, (Get down, get down)
Galang, (Feel, get down)
Stand up, (Get down, get down)
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

So we just dip, (Get down, get down)
Galang, (Feel, get down)
Stand up, (Get down, get down)
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

So me ah chill in the VIP suite
See my DJ playing my beat
Every newscast adverting me
The dancefloor is where we will meet

All over the world, they feel it
Is so sweet, MIB
Pop Style, well I'm free
All jealousy, is for me

Their contribution fell on the finite
Why is me smelly? Cos of my feet
Live out of love alit by the magic
Then when I boom, then when I freak

Find my crumb out, out of my teeth
Back in the dancehall style for a repeat
Bow, now break to be the elite
You nuh see't how me nice and sweet

So we just dip, (Get down, get down)
Galang, (Feel, get down)
Stand up, (Get down, get down)
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

So we just dip, (Get down, get down)
Galang, (Feel, get down)
Stand up, (Get down, get down)
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

So we just dip and galang, dip and stand up
Body basic, it won't dance more though
Dip, galang, stand up
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

So we just dip, (Get down, get down)
Galang, (Feel, get down)
Stand up, (Get down, get down)
Wine pon yah man and ya hold 'em tough

Well it's comfy musical ting called
Groove Armada, featuring Stush and Red Rat, of course

Dip and galang, dip and stand up
Body basic, it won't dance more though
Dip, galang, stand up
While every man in the world light up

So they just dip, get down, get down
Galang, feel, get down
Stand up, get down, get down
While every man in the world light up

Girls all stand up and watch me
They want their sushi
Movement do I look bushy
And I miss you, they just cut me

Me have big booty
They sweet like tutti frutti
Licks you dance like cherry
Angels and that's why I'm screeching

What I wait among the pressure
Jump and sing for [incomprehensible]
Body freeze and I pitch you up
Then boy, easy flick her off

'Cause of this some girls get envy
Even then try mess up your party
Love, but be warned if you beat me
There is no need to compete

So they just dip, get down, get down
Galang, feel, get down
Stand up, get down, get down
Every man in the world light up

So they just dip, get down, get down
Galang, feel, get down
Stand up, get down, get down
Every man in the world light up

So me I chill in the VIP suite
See my DJ playing my beat
Every newscast adverting me
The dancefloor is where we will meet

All over the world, they're feeling
Is so sweet, MIB
Pop Style, well I'm free
All jealousy, is for me

Their contribution fell on the finite
Why is me smelly? Cos of my feet
Left all the love alit by the magic
Then when I boom, then when I freak

Find my commotions gone through my teeth
Working the last of style for a beat
Bow, now break to be the elite
Jealousy I'll be nice and sweet

So they just dip, get down, get down
Galang, feel, get down
Stand up, get down, get down
Every man in the world light up

So they just dip, get down, get down
Galang, feel, get down
Stand up, get down, get down
Every man in the world light up

So they just dip and galang, dip and stand up
Body basic, it won't dance more though
Dip, galang, stand up
