Lyrics

[Intro] Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) [Verse 1] It's new, it's out of the ordinary, it's rather extraordinary So yo, bust this commentary A literary genius and a superior beat creator Have come together and we made a Musical composition which we think is a remedy To cure all the dance floors that's empty You wanna dance? We got what you want Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince bustin' out with the brand new funk [Interlude] Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) Get down Brand new funk, funky (Hit it) Funky [Verse 2] It was kind of an accident, the way that it happened One day I was rappin' and on the beat, Jeff was backin' me up And all of a sudden, he brought in a cut And I dropped my microphone and said, "What the— Hold up, Jeff, wait a minute, play it" He just smiled and said (Yeah, def, ain't it?) It was (Funky), it made wanna (Get-get down) And we knew almost at once it was a (Brand new funk) So we continued to listen to it And we knew it was def when I started rappin' to it So I gave a hi-five to Jeff And without hesitation, popped in my cassette I took it home that night, and analyzed it Rewound the tape over and over, and memorized it That Friday, we went to the club And out and out cold tore it up You shoulda seen the people dancin' and shakin' and movin' and jumpin' And spinnin' and clappin', while the beatbox was groovin' And screamin' and yellin' while on the microphone I was flowin' Fresh rhymes I was showin', the people say, "Yo, keep goin'" So I continued to rock, while Jeff was on the beatbox Special assistance from my homeboy Ready Rock People fought just to get up front To get a bird's eye view of what we call the brand new funk (Get down) [Interlude] Get down, get, get-get down (Hit it) Get, get down, get, get-get down (Funky) Get down, get, get-get down (Hit it) Get, get down, get, get-get down (Funky) Get down, get, get-get down (Hit it) Get, get down, get, get-get down (Funky) Get down, get, get-get down Get, get down (Get down) Yo, Jeff (Rock the beat) Yo, Jeff (Rock the beat) Yo, Jeff (Rock the beat) Beat Yo, Jeff (Rock the beat) Yo, Jeff (Rock the beat) Yo, Jeff (Rock the beat with your hands) Now get funky with the beat (Get down) Hit it Now turn it all around [Verse 3] The most original, amazing, astounding, miraculous Remarkable, startling, sensational, stupendous Music that has ever been created Is ours, but believe me, it was complicated But we have done it, so now we can breathe A long awaited sigh of relief This isn't a publicity stunt It's the raw, untouched, pure, hard brand new funk [Outro] Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hit it) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hit it) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hit it) Funky Rock the beat with your hands (Hit it) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hit it) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hit it) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hi—) Rock, rock (Funky) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down) Rock the beat (Brand new funk, funky, hit it) Rock the beat (Hit it, get down)
