1, 2, 3, go!

My baby dont mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know fa sho (Uh!)
But does she really wanna
But cant stand to see me walk out the do
Dont try to fight the feeling
Cause the thought alone
Is killing me right now (Uh!)
Thank God for Mom and Dad
For sticking to together
Cause we dont know how

Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya

You think youve got it
Oh, you think youve got it
But got it just dont get it
Til theress nothing at all (Ah!)
We get together
Oh, we get together
But separates always better
When theres feelings involved (Oh!)
If what they say is nothing is forever,
Then what makes
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 were not happy here?

(Yall dont want to hear me
You just wanna dance
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya)

Just want you in my Caddy (Oh oh! Oh oh!)
Dont want to meet your momma (Oh oh!)
Just want to make you come-a (Oh oh!)

Alright! (15x)

Okay now, ladies! (Yeah!)

Shake it like a Polaroid picture

You know what to do
You know what to do

Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya
Hey Ya… Hey Ya…

   
Songlog Ok, Outkast! Sure its pop, but many bonus points for a sweet video and a catchy fun tune.
At a time when experimentation is taboo in most overground rap, that’s all Outkast seem intent on executing.

Thanks, Janny!!
