Funkin' Around Lyrics - Outkast

Verse 1: (andre 3000) 

hello, well good evening ladies and gentleman 

what we like to do right here, well first of all 

let me let you know who I am 

well, I go by the name of andre 3000, right 

and we hail from a little place called stankonia, GA, right 

you know right now everyone wants to be from space 

and like want to be from the country and everything like that 

you know, like really like the south is like 

it's cool to be from the south right about now, girls listen up 

torn between saturday night and early sunday morn 

I dont know I'm somewhere stuck in between, tween 

I'm out here knowing hip hop is dead 

the average nigga on my corner yelling, what the fuck you mean, mean 

see we ain't even seen, the mountain top counter clock 

wise goes the neighborhood hand me down and canned goods 

won't cut the gray poupon we got that make you run 

back to the drawing board can't afford to lose y'all, make me yawn 

one slash one slash ninety-one 

my teacher sees potential in me, says sit down son 

now let me tell you like I heard it, when I felt deserted 

it wasn't no other way to word it got my feelings murdered 

by the the bullet of bad the singer of sad 

songs to make you long for your mum and your dad 

plaid clash with polka dots I hope you ain't mad 

back up little mama I'm about to react

Chorus 1: (andre 3000) 

yep, we ain't just funkin around nope, you dont want to see me clown nope

it's time to bounce, rock, roller skate, bounce, rock, roller skate 

hey sex mama there's no time to waste, 

it's time to bounce, rock, roller skate, bounce, rock, roller skate 

grab your partner, roll around, and feel the sound ah baby 

people have your party, don't be late

Verse 2: (big boi) 

well scotty, is beaming, lil' pookie 'nem scheming 

what's the use in living my nigga, while you snoozing, I'm dreaming 

no tylenol PM, you amount to the same thing, everyday like per diem 

never trying to be nothing, better than you are being 

one nation under the cool, should be the rule 

when a young man or a young lady begins or starts grade school 

silence before violence, nine times out of ten times 

the quietest is the livest, fumbling through your privates 

daddy fat sax can I have you back, naw! 

ooh! you such a player, ooh! your southern drawl 

got me sprawled out, in your black book my name was crossed out 

went from starting second string, now you in the dog house 

reminiscin', a part of you was missing 

instead of arguments you think about the hugs and kisses 

if this is something hard for you to take 

you better, bounce, rock, roller skate 

(chorus)
