Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My baby don't mess around
Because she loves me so and this I know for sure
But does she really wanna
But can't stand to see me walk out the door
I can't stand to fight that feeling
'Cause the thought alone is killing me right now
Thank God for Mom and Dad
For sticking two together 'cause we don't know how
[Verse 2]
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
[Verse 3]
You think you've got it, oh, you think you've got it
But got it just don't get it till there's nothing at all
We'll get together, oh we'll get together
But separate's always better when there's feelings involved
[Verse 4]
If what they say is nothing is forever
Oh, then what makes, then what makes, then what makes
Love the exceptions? so why oh, why oh, why oh, why oh, why oh
Are we so in denial when we know we're not happy here
[Verse 5]
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
[Verse 6]
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
[Verse 7]
Now alright, now fellas
You know what's cooler that being cool?
I can't hear you, no
I say what's cooler that being cool?
And alright, yeah alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Alright, now ladies
We gonna break it down in just a few seconds here
Don't make me break it down for nothing
I wanna see y'all on y'all's baddest behavior
I say to you lend me some sugar, I am your neighbor
[Verse 8]
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake, shake it
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake, shake it, shake it like a Polaroid picture
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake, shake it
Shake it, shake, shake it, shake it, shake, shake it
Shake, shake it, shake it like a Polaroid picture, now
[Verse 9]
We shake it, oh no, we shake it
Shake, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake, shake it, shake it like a Polaroid picture
Now we shake it, I say, a-shake it
Shake, shake it, shake it, a-shake it
Shake it, oh no, shake it up and shake it up
[Verse 10]
And hey ya
Hey ya
And hey ya
Hey ya, no no
[Verse 11]
Hey ya
Hey ya, no no
Hey ya
Hey ya
[Verse 12]
And hey ya
And hey ya
