[Intro]

One, two, three

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha


[Verse 1]

There’s a fairy tale that says

Once upon a time

Funky music belonged to people who

Drank cheap wine


[Chorus]

That’s why I gotta get on my own way

That’s the new golden rule

Enjoy the closest human

I’m much too hot to be cool

100 miles an hour, baby

That’s what it’s all about

I need a lover that can slow me down

Somebody that’ll make me shout


[Verse 2]

There’s a misconception that says

Everything on the one (Everything on the one)

Then my first reaction is just try to

Have a little fun


[Chorus]

That’s why I gotta get on my own way

That’s the new golden rule

Enjoy the closest human

I’m much too hot to be cool

100 miles an hour, baby

That’s what it’s all about

I need a lover that can slow me down

Somebody that’ll make me shout

Uh, ha, ha-ha-ha, ha, oh


[Verse 3]

There’s a fairy tale that says

Twice in the Land of Oz (Twice in the Land of Oz)

Dorothy make love to the Lion because

Because, because


[Chorus]

That’s why I gotta get on my own way

That’s the new golden rule

Enjoy the closest human

I’m much too hot to be cool

100 miles an hour, baby

That’s what it’s all about

I need a lover that can slow me down

Somebody that’ll make me shout (Make me shout)


[Outro]

Gonna make me shout
