   I don’t think Mark cares what the lyrics are! LOL! But, in case you were wondering, here they are!

   Artist: CAMEO
   Song: Word Up

   Yo pretty ladies around the world
   Got a weird thing to show you so tell all the boys and girls
   Tell your brother, your sister and your mamma too
   We’re about to go down and you know just what to do
   Wave your hands in the air like you don’t care
   Gilde by the people as they start to look and stare
   Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick mamma
   Come on baby tell me what’s the word

   Word up everybody say
   When you hear the call you’ve got to get it underway
   Word up it’s the call word
   No matter where you say it you know that you’ll be heard

   Now all you sucker DJ’s who think you’re fly
   There’s got to be a reason and we know the reason why
   You try to put on those airs and you act real cool
   But you got to realize that you’re acting like fools
   If there’s music we can use it be free to dance
   We don’t have the time for psychological romance
   No romance, no romance, no romance for me mamma
   Come on baby tell me what’s the word

   Word up everybody say
   When you hear the call you’ve got to get it underway
   Word up it’s the call word
   No matter where you say it you know that you’ll be heard

   Word up everybody say
   When you hear the call you’ve got to get it underway
   Word up it’s the call word
   No matter where you say it you know that you’ll be heard

   Word up everybody say
   When you hear the call you’ve got to get it underway
   Word up it’s the call word
   No matter where you say it you know that you’ll be heard

   Word Up is the short way of saying : I am telling you the truth. Its my word.
   It also can be used as a question : Are you telling me the truth ? I hear it all the time LOL

   Publius, you are right! Shame on me for not knowing my funk artists! LOL! I made the correction above. Apparently, Korn covered the song. Whoever they are! LOL!

   I dont know which is scarrier, Chief Justice Levin playing this song, or the thought of him getting jiggy with it while sitting behind the microphone. Ive seen him dance and he is as bad as me.

    I can teach you all the Funky Céilí. You may need to look that “Word Up” in the Irish dictionary.
