Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Incoming
Fire in the house
Burn that son of a
[Verse 2]
Woo, I'ma shut this down
Kitty cat, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow
Hit it with the hee to the hee to the haw
Miss Jackson, oh, she wear the crown
Brand new sound, got a brand new style
Comin' with the banger like boom-boom-pow
Wow, ooh-ooh-ooh, child
Janet Jackson comin' soon to your town
[Verse 3]
I am never gon', gonna go nowhere, yeah
Quit actin' brand new, you know I've been right here
Lately I've been on, on a mission, yeah
But that don't mean I've forgotten how to move you
Yeah-yeah, yeah
[Verse 4]
So tell me what you wanna do (What you wanna do?)
But don't do nothin' stupid
What is happenin' in front of you
All it is is love from the booth
(Let's go)
[Verse 5]
When the DJ play this we gon' dance like no one's watchin'
Hey, Mr. DJ, drop that track and won't you turn it up?
I'ma dance all night and I don't care who's out there watchin' us
Just give me that fire and I'ma show you how to BURNITUP!
[Verse 6]
Let your body burn it all up
BURNITUP!, and burn it all up
Let your body burn it all up
That's how I BURNITUP!
[Verse 7]
Ain't no sittin' down, gotta keep it up
Me and Missy got the whole room jumpin off (That's right)
Instant motion from the second it drops
We got a headbanger bringin' the beat, it's so hot, hot
[Verse 8]
So tell me what you wanna do (What you wanna do?)
But don't do nothin' stupid
What is happenin' in front of you
All it is is love from the booth
(Here we go)
[Verse 9]
When the DJ play this we gon' dance like no one's watchin'
Hey, Mr. DJ, drop that track and won't you turn it up?
I'ma dance all night and I don't care who's out there watchin' us
Just give me that fire and I'ma show you how to BURNITUP!
[Verse 10]
When the DJ play this we gon' dance like no one's watchin'
Hey, Mr. DJ, drop that track and won't you turn it up?
I'ma dance all night and I don't care who's out there watchin' us
Just give me that fire and I'ma show you how to BURNITUP!
(Come on)
[Verse 11]
Let your body burn it all up
BURNITUP!, and burn it all up
Let your body burn it all up
(Missy)
BURNITUP!, and burn it all up
[Verse 12]
Now this your jam, now do your dance
This that jam, now do your dance
If this that jam, now do your dance
This that jam, now do your dance
Make it work, make it work, make it work (Work that)
Make it work, make it work, make it work (Drop that)
Make it work, make it work, make it work (Come on, girls)
Make it work, make it work, make it work (Sing a song with me)
[Verse 13]
Tonight, we gon' come all together (Drop that)
Let me see your hands up high (Hey)

Wanna come with me and take a ride?
(Let your body burn it all up)
Baby, this is how I do it
[Verse 14]
Ah, we feelin' good
Ah, we in this place
Ah, now bring that beat back, Mr. DJ
[Verse 15]
When the DJ play this we gon' dance like no one's watchin'
Hey, Mr. DJ, drop that track and won't you turn it up? (Let 'em burn)
I'ma dance all night and I don't care who's out there watchin' us
Just give me that fire and I'ma show you how to BURNITUP!
[Verse 16]
Let your body burn it all up
