Wack It Lyrics

Bass
Bass
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)

Now this is called the "Wack It", and I do it all the time
Put the wackest, wackest beats and add the wackest, wackest rhymes
The wacky, wacky, wacky voice, which I really shouldn't say is wacky
Some people say it's wack, but it's not, it's just cracky

This is how I do it, some people just can't hack it
If it's cold outside, then go on and put on a jacket
But now I'm here to tell you, and we know this for a fact
This record's just like crack, you know what it is? It's wack
Wack it

I mean we goin' out the whole nine yards

Now I'm sittin' in my room tryin' to guess just what to do
So I decided to get wacky, 'cause you know, yo, that's true
So we turned on to a track that had to be super wack
And yo, guess what we came up, somethin' like that

I was really thinkin' about some things that make me mad
How could you get a Gold record when you sound like J.J. Fad?

I mean come on, let's be for real, I mean, I didn't wanna say it
But their shit was so wack, yo, this one I know you'll play it
It's record
A wacky record
Now just jump up and down, spin your head from left to right
Then just move a little bit, get real close, but not too tight
Let me see you throw your hands up in the air like you don't care
And that's called the wackest dance, and we'll call it "The Underwear"
It's a record
A wacky record (Go on, girl)

Now my name is Shanté, not Wanda Wawa
And I'm here to make a wecord, and some people say I'm a star
I say, yeah, I do agree, but you have to think real close
I mean, when it comes to bein wacky, J.J. Fad, yo, they're the most
It's a wack it

Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)

Now if you want a example, let me tell you what makes me mad
Did you ever hear Supersonic that was by J.J. Fad?
Listen close to what I'm sayin, 'cause it went somethin' like this
(Blah-blah-blah-blah) Or you can say I missed, I really can't resist
To come to someone, up to their face and then give them a diss
I do it all the time, every time I say a rhyme
People jump, yeah, all on mines, 'cause you know they're out of line
I tell them to step right back, 'cause you know the record's wack
If you do not like the record, yo, I got it like that
I can make rhymes up just like this
Make the people not wanna resist
They listen to the beat and start to dance
And then they start to jump up in their pants
Now I told you how to do the dance
Get on the floor and take a chance
Now this is known as a matter of fact
Yo, stop the track, let's get wack
Wack, wack, wack, wack
Yo, yo, wait a minute, wait a minute, my ears
What you doin, baby? Stop playin'
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, my God

Now sittin' in my room tryin' to guess just what to do
So I decided to get wacky, 'cause you know, yo, that's true
So we turned on to a track that had to be super wack
And yo, guess what we came up, somethin' like that

Now get off of my tip, hahahaha
Now who would believe?
See this, this here happens to be a fad or a phase or a style
That the party people happen to be going through
And I'm in this to win this
And I'm here to get paid, so I figured I might as well get wack too
I mean come on
They might even tell me that the record is dynamite
Now wasn't that cute?
But anyway
Bet y'all some respect after this one, uh

Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it (Bass)
Wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it, wack it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
