[Spoken Intro: Barry White]
Talk to me! Say something!
Say something
Say something
You just sitting right there
And you're sitting right there on your ass
Life is just passing you by
You ’ve got to do something
Talk to me
Say something
[Chorus]
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Get your ass up
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
You ’ve got to deal with consistency
You gotta stay up, gotta stay up, gotta stay up, you gotta
After you get up you gotta stay up
You gotta stay up, gotta stay up, gotta stay up, you gotta
You gotta to stay up
[Verse 1]
You know the only thing that comes to
To people who do nothing
Oh no, there is a reward
There's a big reward for doing nothing
You know what reward you get?
You don’t get a damn thing
Nothing
Nothing at all
[Chorus]
Get up
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Get up of your ass
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Get up
You gotta stay up
You gotta stay up, gotta stay up, gotta stay up, you gotta
You’ve got to stay up
You gotta stay up, gotta stay up, gotta stay up, you gotta
You gotta move up
You gotta move up, gotta move up, gotta move up, you gotta
In life and living you always got to move up
You gotta move up, gotta move up, gotta move up, you gotta
That’s why you gotta to get up
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Get up
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Stop just sittin’ on your ass
[Verse 2]
There are many things you want in this world
Ha, I do, too
But you know what I was willing to do for mine
For the things that I wanted?
Suffer
I was willing to be patient and work while I wait
So get up of your ass and do something
Say something
Get something
Anything you want
If you’re willing to suffer
[Chorus]
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Come on, get up
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Laying down on your ass not doin’ a thing
You gotta stay up, gotta stay up, gotta stay up, you gotta
Stay up
You gotta stay up, gotta stay up, gotta stay up, you gotta
See, it goes like this:
First you get up, you stay up, then you move up
You gotta move up, gotta move up, gotta move up, you gotta
You gotta move up, gotta move up, gotta move up, you gotta
But first, you gotta get up
You've got to get up, stay up, to move up
You gotta get up, gotta get up, gotta get up, you gotta
Get on up, get on up
