The Message

There is somethin' wrong with sounds today

They never really captured how I feel, ha

And whatever happened to the sounds today

I think that they are lackin' somethin' real

Like them ol' school jams

The kind that make you wanna dance

Lose yourself in music, feel so free

It's time ya take your stand

And turn things around

I want you to express yourself through

Music and don't hide it

And just sing it, let's get it together

'Cause music and that freeness of thinkin'

Is pushin' us further

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get up and move

Gotta send out my message to the people

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get in the groove

Are you hearin' my message to the people?

So what's goin' on in life today?

People lookin' down though they won't say what's up, no

But we can figure out and find a way

Just keep on movin' forward, don't give up, no

Let's go back in time, back to music of my mind

With Stevie, playin' piano just for you

Yeah, yeah

So what happened to the sounds today

I know that deep down you still love your music

And don't hide it

Just sing it, let's get it togther

'Cause music and that freeness of thinkin'

Is pushin' us further

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get up and move

Gotta send out my message to the people

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get in the groove

Are you hearin' my message to the people? Oh, oh

Yeah, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

Get up and dance, oh

Hey, eh

(Gotta get up and dance)

(Gotta get up and move)

(Gotta get up and dance)

(Gotta get up and move)

Are you hearin' my message to the people?

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get up and move

Gotta send out my message to the people

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get in the groove

Are you hearin' my message to the people?

(Come weekends, we dancin' the night away)

Gotta send out my message to the people (Sing to me, sing to me)

Gotta get up and dance

Gotta get in the groove

This is my message to you
