Lyrics
So wide you can't get around it
<span begin="4.848" end="8.867">So low you can't get under it</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="6.615" end="10.031">(So low you can't get under it)</span></span>
<span begin="9.127" end="12.301">So high you can't get over it</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="11.464" end="15.634">(So high you can't get over it)</span></span>
This is a chance
This is a chance
To dance your way
<span begin="24.920" end="27.339">Out of your constrictions</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="29.622" end="30.707">(Tell suckah!)</span></span>
Here's a chance to dance our way
Out of our constrictions
Gonna be freakin'
Up and down
Hang-up alley way
With the groove our only guide, we shall all be moved
Ready or not, here we come
Gettin' down on
<span begin="1:02.169" end="1:06.552">The one which we believe in</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:03.818" end="1:07.103">(One nation under a groove)</span></span>
<span begin="1:06.602" end="1:08.973">Can I get it on the good foot, good God</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:07.774" end="1:11.129">(Gettin' down just for the funk of it)</span></span>
<span begin="1:10.507" end="1:13.542">'Bout time I got down one time</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:11.775" end="1:14.876">(One nation and we're on the move)</span></span>
<span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="1:14.428" end="1:17.644">(Nothing can stop us now)</span></span> <span begin="1:14.362" end="1:20.012">Ha, ha-ha-ha-ha-hi</span>
Feet, don't fail me now
Givin' you more of what you're funkin' for
Feet don't fail me now
Do you promise to funk?
The whole funk, nothing but the funk
Ready or not, here we come
Gettin' down on the one which we believe in
Here's my chance to dance my way
Out of my constrictions
You can dance away
<span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="2:53.267" end="2:54.467">(Feet, don't fail me now)</span></span> <span begin="2:54.016" end="2:57.867">Here's a chance to dance our way</span>
Out of our constrictions
Gonna be groovin' up and down hang-up alley way
Groove our only guide
<span begin="3:14.905" end="3:17.889">We shall all be moved</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:16.873" end="3:18.139">(Feet, don't fail me now)</span></span>
Givin' you more of what we're funkin' for
Feet, don't fail me now
Here's my chance to dance my way
Out of my constrictions
<span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="3:47.772" end="3:51.921">(Givin' you more of what you're funkin' for)</span></span> <span begin="3:48.291" end="3:49.555">Feet, don't fail me now</span>
Feet, don't fail me now
Do you promise to funk, the whole funk
Nothing but the funk
One nation under a groove
Gettin' down just for the funk of it
One nation and we're on the move
<span begin="4:11.144" end="4:14.345">Nothing can stop us now</span> <span ttm:role="x-bg"><span begin="4:12.099" end="4:14.285">(Nothing can stop us now)</span></span>
