Lyrics

Oh, scorpio
Show no shame
Shake it baby
He is DJ Flash
And he came here
To give you a blast
And we are the Furious Five
And we're rocking, shocking
All the way live
Show no shame
Shake it
Shake it, baby
Ah, show no shame
Don't be shy girl
Show no shame
Higher baby
Higher now
Higher baby
Higher now
Higher baby
Break it down
Show no shame now
Throw your hands
Way up high
And everybody's gonna try
To reach the sky
Because you can't stop
Won't stop
Playing the game
And I know that you can do it
If you show no shame
Hey girl, don't be shy
Shake your body the way I
The way that I like it
With no shame girl
That's the way
Shake it baby
Take me higher
Higher
Higher
Higher
Higher
Now break it down
Don't be shy girl
Now switch
Make a switch
Biology power
Ah, make a switch
Hey June Bug, switch
Trenie, switch
Make a switch
Make a switch
Make a switch
Make a switch
Switch
Don't be shy girl
Higher
Higher baby
Higher now
Higher
Higher baby
Break it down
And show no shame girl
Mister Nash
Who rocks the fest
And Rhaheim
Who beliefs things
And Cowboy
Is the real McCoy
And Grandmaster
Cuts much faster
And me and Rob
Doing the job
And Jigsaw
Is giving me more
And Steve Jerome
Is the king of the throne
And Merob
Is the place to be
And Kid Creole
Is selling go slow
Don't be shy girl
Ah baby, break it down
Now take me higher
Tricia break it down
Ah, take me higher now
Now baby, break it down
Higher
