[Verse 1]
E5
I said a hip hop, The hippie to the hippie The hip hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it
A
To the bang bang boogie, say up jump the boogie, To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat.
E5
Now, what you hear is not a test I'm rappin' to the beat,
A
And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
Em E7sus4
See, I am Wonder Mike, and I'd like to say hello,
A
To the black, to the white, the red and the brown,

The purple and yellow. But first, I gotta

Rock the rhythm that'll make your body rock
E5
Well so far you've heard my voice but I brought two friends along,
A
And the next on the mic is my man Hank, C'mon, Hank, sing that song!
E5
Check it out, I'm the C-A-S-A, the N-O-V-A, And the rest is F-L-Y,
A
You see I go by the code of the doctor of the mix, And these reasons I'll tell you why.
Em
You see, I'm six foot one, and I'm tons of fun
E7sus4
When I dress to a T,
A
You see, I got more clothes than Muhammad Ali
A13
And I dress so viciously.
Em
I got bodyguards, I got two big cars
Esus4
That definitely ain't the wack,
A A13
I got a Lincoln Continental and a sunroof Cadillac.
E5
So after school I take a dip in the pool, Which is really on the wall,
A
I got a colour TV, so I can see The Knicks play basketball. Hear me talk about
E5
Checkbooks, credit cards, mo' money than a sucker could ever spend,
A
But I wouldn't give a sucker or a bum from the Rucker Not a dime 'til I made it again. Everybody go
Em E7sus4
Ho-tel, Mo-tel, Whatcha gonna do today? (Say what?)
A
'Cause I'm a get a fly girl,
A13
Gonna get some spank n' drive off in a def OJ. Everybody go

Say if your girl starts actin' up, then you take her friend.
E5
Master Gee! My mellow! It's on you, so whatcha gonna do?
A
Well, it's on'n'n'on'n'on on'n'on, The beat don't stop until the break of dawn.
E5
I said M-A-S, T-E-R, a G with a double E,
A
I said I go by the unforgettable name of the man they call the Master Gee.
Em
Well, my name is known all over the world
E7sus4
By all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls.
A
I'm goin' down in history
A13
As the baddest rapper there ever could be.
Em
Now I'm feelin' the highs and you're feelin' the lows,
E7sus4
The beat starts gettin' into your toes
A
You start poppin' your fingers and stompin' your feet
A13
And movin' your body while while you're sitting in your seat
E5
And then damn! Ya start doin' the freak, I said Damn! Right outta your seat
A
Then you throw your hands high in the air, ya rockin' to the rhythm, shake your derriere
E5
Ya rockin' to the beat without a care, with the sureshot MCs for the affair.
A
Now, I'm not as tall as the rest of the gang but I rap to the beat just the same.
Em
I got a little face, and a pair of brown eyes
E7sus4
All I'm here to do, ladies, is hypnotize
A
Singin' on'n'n'on'n'on on'n'on,
A13
The beat don't stop until the break of dawn
Em
Singin' on'n'n'on'n'on on'n'on,
E7sus4
Like a hot buttered pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie
A
Pop da pop pop, don't you dare stop
A13
Come alive y'all, gimme whatcha got
E5
I guess by now you can take a hunch and find that I am the baby of the bunch
A
But that's okay, I still keep in stride, 'cause all I'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
E5
Singin' on'n'n'on'n'on on'n'on, the beat don't stop until the break of dawn.
A
Singin' on'n'n'on'n'on on'n'on, rock rock, y'all, throw it on the floor
Em
I'm gonna freak you here, I'm gona freak you there,
E7sus4
I'm gonna move you outta this atmosphere.
A
'Cause I'm one of a kind and I'll shock your mind
A13
I put the tick, tick, tick in your behind. I said
Em E7sus4
One, two, three, four, come on, girls, get on the floor
A
A-come alive, y'all, a-gimme whatcha got
A13
'Cause I'm guaranteed to make you rock
E5
I said one, two, three, four, tell me, Wonder Mike what are you waiting for?
A
I said a hip hop, the hippie to the hippie the hip hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it
E5
To the bang bang boogie, say up jump the boogie, to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat.
A
A Skiddleebebop, we rock, scooby doo, and guess what, America, we love you
Em
'Cause you rocked and a rolled with so much soul,
E7sus4
You could rock 'til a hundred and one years old.
A
I don't mean to brag, I don't mean to boast,
A13
But we like hot butter on our breakfast toast
Em
Rock it up, Baby Bubba!
E7sus4
Baby Bubba to the boogie da bang bang da boogie
A
To the beat, beat, it's so unique
A13
Come on everybody and dance to the beat!
[Instrumental]
N.C.
[Verse 2]
E5
A hip hop the hippie to the hippie the hip hip a hop and you don't stop
A
Rock it out, Baby Bubba to the boogie da bang bang the boogie to the boogie, the beat.
E5
I said, I can't wait 'til the end of the week when I'm rappin' to the rhythm of a groovy beat
A
And I attempt to raise your body heat. Just blow your mind, so you can't speak
E5
And do a thing but a-rock and shuffle your feet
E7sus4
And let it change up to a dance called the freak
A
And when you finally do come into your rhythmic beat,
A13
Rest a little while so you don't get weak.
Em
I know a man named Hank
E7sus4
He has more rhymes than a serious bank
A
So come on, Hank, sing that song,
A13
To the rhythm of the boogie, the bang bang da bong!
E5
Well, I'm Imp the Dimp, the ladies' pimp, the women fight for my delight.
A
But I'm the grandmaster with the three MCs that shock the house for the young ladies
E5
And when you come inside, into the front, you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
A
And when the sucker MC try to prove a point, we're a treacherous trio, we're the serious joint!
Em
From sun to sun and from day to day
E7sus4
I sit down and write a brand new rhyme
A
Because they say that miracles never cease
A13
I've created a devastating masterpiece
Em
I'm gonna rock the mic 'til you can't resist,
E7sus4
Everybody, I say it goes like this
A
Well, I was coming home late one afternoon
A13
A reporter stopped me for an interview
E5
She said she's heard stories and she's heard fables that I'm vicious on the mic and the turntable
A
This young reporter I did adore, so I rocked some vicious rhymes like I never did before
E5
She said, "Damn, fly guy, I'm in love with you. the Casanova legend must have been true."
A
I said, "By the way, baby, what's your name?" said, "I go by name of Lois Lane.
Em
And you could be my boyfriend, you surely can,
E7sus4
Just let me quit my boyfriend called Superman."
A
I said, "He's a fairy, I do suppose
A13
Flyin' through the air in pantyhose
Em
He may be very sexy, or even cute,
E7sus4
But he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit,"
A
I said, "You need a man man who's got finesse
A13
And his whole name across his chest.
E5
He may be able to fly all through the night, but can he rock a party 'til the early light?
A
He can't satisfy you with his little worm, but I can bust you out with my super sperm!"
E5
I go do it, I go do it, I go do it, do it, do it.
A
And I'm here and I'm there, I'm Big Ban Hank, I'm everywhere
Em
Just throw your hands up in the air
E7sus4
And party hardy like you just don't care
A A13
Let's do it, don't stop, y'all, a tick tock, y'all, you don't stop!
