[Verse 1]
I've got to get up to get down
And start all over again
Head on down to the basement and shout
Kick those white mice and black dogs out
Kick those white mice and baboons out
Kick those baboons and all the motherfuckers out
[Verse 2]
And uh, get it on
Get it on
On the day that uh, you got born
[Verse 3]
They had to dig him from the ground
They chipped in from the frozen snow
They took his monkey fingers
But he had nowhere to go
They took his pink hair curlers
They took his sequin gown
They took his Stratocaster
They took his pornographic crown
[Verse 4]
He's got some words of wisdom
I got some words of wisdom
He's got some words of wisdom
I got some words of wisdom
[Verse 5]
Get it on
Get it on
On the day that uh, you got born
[Verse 6]
He crawled out of the ooze
He defied evolution
He had green flippers and sang the blues
He caused a revolution
That got in the British weeklies
He got in the dailies too
He drank panther piss
And fucked the girls you're probably married to
[Verse 7]
He's got some words of wisdom
I got some words of wisdom
He's got some words of wisdom
They got some words of wisdom
[Verse 8]
Get it on
Get it on
On the day that uh, you got born
[Verse 9]
Get it on
Get it on
Alright
Get it on
Get it on
You gotta do that phone
Yeah and up is down
Where sweet is sweet
Yeah, taxi's on
[Verse 10]
Then one day he went away
His neighbor claimed he shot him
If he hadn't disappeared
The tax man would've got him
[Verse 11]
Yeah, but before I leave
I call out from the storm
For those who gave their lives
So we could get it on
[Verse 12]
Get it on
Get it on
On the day that uh, you were born
[Verse 13]
Get it on
Get it on
Get it on
Get it on
