[Spoken Intro]

Turn it up


[Refrain]

You need to, you need to

You need to lay it down

You need to, you need to

You need to lay it down


[Verse 1]

You need to lay it down

And let me show you how

We do this thing

Up in funky town

From the heart of Minnesota

Here come the Purple Yoda

Guaranteed to bring the dirty new sound

Come on, now


[Refrain]

You need to, you need to

(What, What, What)

You need to lay it down

(What, What, What)

You need to, you need to

(What, What, What)

You need to lay it down


[Verse 2]

You need to shut it up

Your cup ain't full enough

Let me show you what I learned

From laying in the cut

You need a six string

And let that sucker ring

The holy funk 'n roll

Let it get the people up


[Refrain]

(What, What, What)

You need to, you need to

(Get up)

You need to lay it down

(Get up)

You need to, you need to

(Stay Down)

You need to lay it down


[Bridge]

To say this name borders on blasphemy

Everybody wants to be me

If your girlfriend didn't have the surgery

Maybe she could see what I see


[Refrain]

You need to, you need to

You need to lay it down


[Verse 3]

You need to lay it down

And let me show you how

We do this thing

Up in funky town

From the heart of Minnesota

Here come the Purple Yoda

Guaranteed to bring the dirty new sound

Come on, now


[Verse 4]

Yours ain't really the grove we dance to

We need something more funky to move to

Y'all know what I'm talking 'bout

That purple bounce, bounce

Rio de Janeiro

Euro and and soon Amero

This dirty little groove for you

Let's do it now, come on, boo


[Ad lib]

Bounce, bounce

Come on, now, come on, now


[Verse 4]

You need to lay it down

And let me show you how

We do this thing

Up in funky town

From the heart of Minnesota

Here come the Purple Yoda

Guaranteed to bring the dirty new sound

Come on, now

Let's go
