Mmmmm
(Keep it nice and quiet, keep it nice and quiet)
'the hell was that?
Hey y'all, I thought we bust this new hype before
All across the land (Come on, man, let's get busy)
(New dance commercial, take 2)
Rio, Marbella - huh
We gettin' stupid - Ha!
Germany, Paris, France
We gettin' stupid
Yeah, Stockholm, Sweden, we love ya'
Me shed, it's easier said code red
Bust the new groove just hyped 4 the jughead
Bass thumpin' everybody's doin the bumpin'
Oops there, I slipped up on a move
I think it's time 2 bust somethin' sleazy, but cool and easy
("Is this the right one?")
Yeah - this is 4 the hood
Better keep it greasy
Better yet on a smooth tip
I don't wanna sweat
I want my slimmie 2 get with this (Woo!)
Move your head, shoulders from side 2 side
Take your back foot and then U let it slide (Yeah, get busy)
Yo, in a fade motion, lots of attitude, coast 2 coastin'
U're floatin', homeboys boastin'
U made his skeeze freeze (Hahahaha)
U've been chosen, P!
Ladies and gentlemen, NPG introduces the...
Jughead
(Bum-bum-bum-bum-bump) repeats in the background vocals
Yeah, we gettin' funky in the house 2night
Kickin' the jughead (Doin' the jughead) (Oh yeah)
Come on, get stupid, get stupid (Uh huh, yeah)
Kickin' the jughead (Jughead)
Aw yeah, we gettin' funky in the house 2night (Doin' the jughead)
Kickin' the jughead, yeah (Get stupid, get stupid)
Wait a minute, what's they doin'?
Well, mack daddy in the house over there
What U doin' dawg?
(Gettin' busy G, kickin' the jughead)
Yeah, baby's gettin' busy in my face (Haha!)
Cold housin' a future
Everything has been well placed
This daddy's 2 fly
He bust the jughead as he floats 2 the other side (Hey)
U watch the rotation, there's a bit of hesitation (Hey)
This is some new hype stuff U're facin'
U gotta come with a new git (Uh huh)
The J-U-G-H-E-A-D, and I'm flowin' with it
U could say I'm on a roll
N.P.G. 'ey y'all, and we're gettin' bold
Aw yeah - bold steps must be taken 2 bump a nation
Their scrutiny is what I'm facin' (Hey)
As U pump the volume 2 what I'm sayin' (Hey)
U'd catch me dead before U catch me doin' anything but the jughead (Dead)
(Jughead)
Yeah, we gettin' funky in the house 2night
Kickin' the jughead (Doin' the jughead)
Yeah, come on get stupid, get stupid
Kickin' the jughead (Jughead)
Yo, yo, we gettin' funky in the house 2night (Aye)
Kickin' the jughead, ha ha (Doin' the jughead)
(Get stupid, get stupid) (Ooh)
Don't worry if U're lookin' silly
Look over here at me, workin' 4 Willie
(Check him out, man, check him out)
Gettin' busy in the corner (Oh yes, is that legal?!)
Holdin' my own-a - U think that I'm posin'? (Yeah, man)
I'm just frozen on an upbeat (Ho, man)
Clockin' a freak in a low pro (Hut)
U know, discreet (What)
Baby was laughing (Hey)
But before a "no" was even said (Hey)
She's on the dance floor next beat kickin' the jughead

(Get funky) {x2}
Who turn the mutha out? (Man, NPG, man, funk that!)
{Song continues in in the background vocals}
Tony, U were excellent
What U need is a manager
4 what?
I can make U...
Moneyminders are like parasites
They pose as wheelers and dealers 4 your rights
And most companies say that U need 'em!
Not me
But I kick back, observed, and watched them bleed 'em
I'm honest
Artists young and old
I can bring U 2 the top!
Where'd this unwritten law come from anyway?
That years after the contract U should still be gettin' paid?
Boy, I'd go broke and hit the skids
Before I take care of a rich sucker's kids
My contract...
Hell, a contract ain't no pension plan
My contract...
Years after this, my kids are still gonna make the grands
Tony, U...
And U laughed at my brother, Little Richard
When he says U ain't gave him nothin'
Let's leave him out of this
Hell, that ain't no joke
His songs are still sellin', that man could die broke
So fellow artists, push 4 yours
U need me
And watch 4 Mr. Moneyminder as we settle the score
Tony...
Ohhhh!
