"Push" Lyrics

Buy from iTunes: Prince & The New Power Generation - Diamonds and Pearls - Push

Step 1, step off 2 the dance floor {x2}
Push! (Yeah) (Push up on it) (Good God)
Yeah, push, yeah, woo!
(Push it) (Push up on it)
Every time U get some
People wanna take it back
They rather see U on the run
Than see U get it like that
Every time they stop U
A-change up like a sock
Every time they try 2 clock U
Tick more than they tock, ah...

Chorus:
Push (I push) don't U let them pull U down
Yeah, push (I push ) until U get 2 higher ground
Hey, push - U're never 2 young, U're never 2 old
Yeah push - don't stop until U go
Did U ever stop 2 wonder
Why U put another down?
No man should asunder
The joy that another man found
Maybe U thought the business U was worried
Wasn't ever filed in your name
Maybe the cartridge U was playin'
Don't fit in your video game

Chorus

Hey alright (I push)
Push (I,I,I...) (Push up on it)
Push (I push)
Push, push, hey, yeah
Push (U wanna push it now, yeah, push)
(Push up on it)
Push, yeah (I push) (Push)
Every time U get some (Push)
People wanna take it back (P-push)
They rather see U on the run (Push)
Than see U get it like that
Everytime (everytime they stop U) U got 2 change up
U change up like a sock (Push)
Every time they try 2 clock U (Push)
Tick more than they tock, ah...

Chorus

(Higher)
Push (I push) {x2}
(Good God)
Push (I push) {x2}
Did U ever stop 2 wonder? (Did U ever stop 2 wonder?)
(Push) repeats in the background vocals
Yeah, I'ma push up on it (Yeah)
Tony, (Yo) (come on) get on the mic (Yeah, G-g-g-g-get on the microphone)
I'ma push up on it
Tony, (Yo) get on the mic
Yeah, I'ma push up on it
Tony, (Yo) get on the mic
Slow down, I'ma push up on it
(Get on the mic) {x2}
I push 4 a beat that is greasy
I'll dis a beat if it teases
Marks this down as I state it
I like my funk concentrated
The pop seems, hmmm, a little overrated
Guess U can tell what was stepped in
Just some grease on the stage
Oops, I just stepped in it
Circling as we vibe the full stride was the ride
On a watered-down tip, we could never get by
Fellas, (G-get on the mic) check it out
Here's what U gotta do
Got 2 step in the room with the mood
Never juicin' yourself, just a competent attitude
So maybe U will get busy, yo' mouth'll drop open (Get on the mic)
As U watch the slimmies walkin'
But U don't want the one who's jockin'
Cuz it's all about the clockin'
Step 1, step off 2 the dance floor
Push up on it, there U go, y'all, yeah (Point, point 2,3) (Push {x3})
(C'mon, push it) Push up on it
(Get on the mic)
{Push is repeated }
Prince, get on the mic {x3}
(Get on it, get, get, get on it) (Push up on it)
U don't want me on the mic
Prince, get on it, get, get, get on it
Naw man, U don't want me on the mic
(Don't stop it)
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah!
It's Thunder when I'm on the mic (I push)
Daddy Pop's in the house
And U're sure 2 like his Diamonds
Sure 2 like his Pearls (I push)
I'm good 2 Cream every boy and girl
Cuz I'm Strollin', steady, hip-hop, rock and rollin'
A Willing And Able Horny Pony
And I'm pumpin' 'em, I'm pumpin' 'em
I'm pump-pump-pump-pump-pumpin' 'em
From Pakistan 2 Poland straight into yo' town (Get on the mic) {x2}
Snatchin' up kiddies like a circus clown (Get on the mic) (Get on the microphone)
Hahahaha...
Well, all U people out there, U better beware
Cuz they call me Rosie G. and I just don't care
I like 2 step, all night long
A rapper here, rappin' there, pushin' his song
The song gets hotter and it sets U on fire (Get on the mic)
Like the lightening in the Bible it takes U all higher
My momma said, "Girl, U know it ain't cool, said U don't want 2 play
by nobody's rules"
I said, "Momma, chill out, and give me a break
Cuz I know I got just what it takes"
I said, "Momma , don't put me under pressure. (get on, get on...get
on the mic)
I love U and I think U're fresher"
Push
Everybody, here we go, c'mon now push if ya wanna
(Push ) (Get on the mic) (Push)
Come on, come on, come on, come, p-p-push it
Push (Yeah, push it) {x2}
Push
