[Intro: Billy Cobb]
One, two, three!

[Verse 1: Billy Cobb]
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?
Don't try to fight the feeling
'Cause the thought alone is killing me right now
Thank God for Mom and Dad
For sticking to together 'cause we don't know how

[Chorus: Billy Cobb]
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!

[Verse 2: Billy Cobb]
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 get together, oh, we get together
But separate's always bettеr when there's feelings involvеd
If what they say is, "Nothing is forever"
Then what makes, then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes, what makes, what makes love the exception?
So why oh, why oh, why oh, why oh, why oh
Are we so in denial when we know we're not happy here?
[Chorus: Billy Cobb]
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!

[Bridge: Billy Cobb]
Hey, all right now, all right now, fellas (Yeah?)
Now, what's cooler than being cool? (Ice Cold!)
I can't hear ya
I say what's, what's cooler than being cool? (Ice Cold!)
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right
Okay now, ladies (Yeah?)
Now, we gon' break this thing down in just a few seconds
Now, don't have me break this thing down for nothing
Now, I want to see y'all on your baddest behavior
Lend me some sugar, I am your neighbor
Ah, here we go!

[Refrain: Billy Cobb]
Shake it, sh-shake it, shake it, sh-shake it
Shake it, sh-shake it, shake it, shake it, sh-shake it
Shake it like a Polaroid picture, hey ya!
Shake it, sh-shake it, shake it, sh-shake it
Shake it, shake it (Okay), shake it, sugar
Shake it like a Polaroid picture, picture
[Chorus: Billy Cobb]
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!
