You get the limo out front
Hottest styles, every shoe, every color
Yea when your famous it can be kinda fun
It's really you but no one ever discovers
In some ways you're just like all your friends
But on stage you're a star
You get the best of both worlds
Chillin' out, take it slow
Then you rock out the show
They're the world's most fearsome fighting team
(We're really hip!)
They're heroes in a half-shell and they're green
(Hey - get a grip!)
When the evil Shredder attacks
These Turtle boys don't cut him no slack!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
When there's trouble, you know who to call (TEEN TITANS!)
From their tower, they can see it all (TEEN TITANS!)
When there's evil on the attack
You can rest knowing they got your back
'Cause when the world needs heroes on patrol
TEEN TITANS, GO!
TEEN TITANS, GO!
With their super powers, they unite (TEEN TITANS!)
Never met a villain that they liked (TEEN TITANS!)
They got the bad guys on the run
They never stop until the job gets done
'Cause when the world is losing all control
I got ketchup on my blue jeans,
I just burnt my hand,
Lord, it's hard to be a bachelor man.
I got girls that can cook,
I got girls that can clean,
I got girls that can do anything in between,
I gotta get ready, make everything right,
'cause all my rowdy friends are comin' over tonight.
Do you wanna dance,
hey, do ya wanna party,
Hey, honey, this is ole Hank
ready to get the thing started.
We cooked a pig in the ground,
we got some beer on ice,
And all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight.
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
Shawty had them Apple Bottom jeans, jeans
Boots with the fur, with the fur
The whole club was lookin’ at her
She hit the flo’, she hit the flo’
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low, low low low low
Them baggy sweat pants
And the Reeboks with the straps, with the straps
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack,
ayy! She hit the flo’, she hit the flo’
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low, low low low low
Now put your hands up
Up in the club, we just broke up, I'm doing my own little thing
Decided to dip and now you wanna trip
'Cause another brother noticed me
I'm up on him, he up on me
Don't pay him any attention
Just cried my tears, for three good years
Ya can't be mad at me
'Cause if you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it, then you shoulda put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it‘
Cause if you liked it, then you shoulda put a ring on it
I want your ugly, I want your disease
I want your everything as long as it's free
I want your love
Love, love, love, I want your love
I want your drama, the touch of your hand
I want your leather studded kiss in the sand
I want your love
Love, love, love, I want your love
(Love, love, love, I want your love)
Tonight's the night, let's live it up
I got my money, let's spend it up
Go out and smash it like oh my God
Jump off that sofa, let's get, get off
I know that we'll have a ball
If we get down and go out and just lose it all
I feel stressed out, I wanna let it go
Let's go way out spaced out and losing all control
Fill up my cup, mazel tov
Look at her dancing, just take it off
Let's paint the town, we'll shut it down
Let's burn the roof, and then we'll do it again
