Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, oh, do me, baby
Oh, oh, do me, baby
[Verse 1]
Aight, stop what you're doin' 'cause I'm about to ruin
The image and the style that you're used to
I look funny
But yo, I'm makin' money, see
So yo, world, I hope you're ready for me
Now gather round
I'm the new fool in town
And my sound's laid down by the Underground
I drink up all the Hennessy you got on your shelf
So just let me introduce myself
My name is Humpty
Pronounced with a umpty
Yo, ladies
Oh, how I like to funk thee
And all the rappers in the top ten
Please allow me to bump thee
I'm steppin' tall, y'all
And just like Humpty Dumpty
You're gonna fall when the stereos pump me
I like to rhyme
I like my beats funky
I'm spunky
I like my oatmeal lumpy
I'm sick with this
Straight gangsta mack
But sometimes I get ridiculous
I'll eat up all your crackers and your licorice
Oh, yo, fat girl, come here
Are you ticklish?
Yeah, I called you fat
Look at me, I'm skinny
It never stopped me from gettin' busy
I'm a freak
I like the girls with the boom
I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom
I'm crazy
Allow me to amaze thee
They say I'm ugly, but it just don't faze me
I'm still gettin' in the girls pants
And I even got my own dance
[Chorus]
The Humpty dance is your chance to do the Hump
C'mon (Oh, do me, baby)
Ah, do the Humpty Hump
C'mon and do the Humpty Hump (Oh, oh, do me, baby)
Check me out y'all, and do the Humpty Hump (Do the Humpty Hump)
Just watch me do the Humpty Hump (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Yeah, well, do you know what I'm doin'? (Do the Humpty Hump)
Doin' my Humpty Hump (Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
C'mon, do the Humpty Hump
Ah, do the Humpty Hump
[Verse 2]
People say, yo, Humpty
You're really funny lookin'
That's aight 'cause I get things cookin'
You stare, your glare, you constantly try to compare me
But you can't get near me
I'm givin' more, see?
And on the floor, B? All the girls, they adore me
Oh, yes, ladies
I'm really bein' sincere
'Cause in the '69, my Humpty nose will tickle your rear
My nose is big
Uh-uh, I'm not ashamed
Big like a pickle
I'm still gettin' paid
I get laid by the ladies
You know I'm in charge
Both how I'm livin' and my nose is large
I get stupid
I shoot an arrow like Cupid
I use a word that don't mean nuttin'
Like looptid
I sang on Doowhutchyalike
And if you missed it
I'm the one who said, just grab 'em in the biscuits
Also told you that I like to bite
Well, yeah, I guess it's obvious, I also like to write
All you had to do was give Humpty a chance
And now I'm gonna do my dance
[Chorus]
The Humpty dance is your chance to do the Hump
C'mon, yeah, sexy baby (Oh, do me, baby)
Do the Humpty Hump (C'mon, uh)
Do the Humpty Hump
Sexy baby (Oh, oh, do me, baby)
Do the Humpty Hump (Everybody)
C'mon and do the Humpty Hump (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Uh, Do you know what we're doin'? (Do the Humpty Hump)
We're doing the Humpty Hump, y'all (Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Uh, do the Humpty Hump
Watch me do the Humpty Hump
[Bridge]
Aww yeah, that's the break, y'all
Let a little of that bass groove right here
Uh, doo, roo, doo, ruut
Uh, doo, roo, doo, ruut
Aww yeah
Now that I told y'all a little bit about myself
Let me tell you a little about this dance
It's real easy to do
Check it out
[Verse 3]
First I limp to the side like my legs was broken
Shakin' and twitchin' kinda like I was smokin'
Crazy wack funky
People say you look MC Hammer on crack, Humpty
That's aight 'cause my body's in motion
It's supposed to look like a fit or a convulsion
Anyone can play this game
This is my dance, y'all
Humpty Hump's my name
No two people will do it the same
You got it down
When you appear to be in pain
Humpin'
Funkin', jumpin'
Dig around, shakin' your rump
And when a doo-doo chump punk
Points a finger like a stunt
Tell 'em, step off
I'm doin' the Hump
[Chorus]
The Humpty dance is your chance to do the Hump
Everybody (Oh, do me, baby)
Uh, do the Humpty Hump
C'mon and do the Humpty Hump
Sexy baby (Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Do the Humpty Hump (Uh)
Do the Humpty Hump (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Do the Humpty Hump (Numa, numa, numa doin')
We're doin' the Humpty Hump, y'all, uh (Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Watch me do the Humpty Hump
Uh, check it out (Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
[Outro]
Black people, do the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump, c'mon (Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
White people, do the Humpty Hump
Do, do the Humpty Hump (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Puerto Ricans
Do the Humpty Hump
Just keep on doin' the Hump (Do the, do the Humpty Hump, oh, oh, do me, baby)
Samoans
Do the Humpty Hump
Do the, do the Humpty Hump
Aw, yeah
Let's get stupid
Uh, do the Humpty Hump (Gimme the music)
Do the Humpty Hump (Gimme, gimme the music)
Everybody, do the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump (Give, gimme the music)
Do the Humpty Hump
C'mon and do the Humpty Hump (Gimme, gimme the music)
Do you know what we're doin'? (Do the Humpty Hump)
Doin' the Humpty Hump, huh (Do the Humpty Hump)
Ah, yeah, go on and break it down (Oh, oh, do me, baby)
Uh, uh, yeah, yeah, sexy baby (Oh, oh, do me, baby)
Once again, the Underground is in the house
I'd like to send a shoutout to the whole world
Keep on doin' the Humpty Dance
And to all the ladies, peace and Humptiness forever
Oh, do me, baby
Oh, oh, do me, baby
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, do me, baby
Oh, oh, oh, do me, baby
