Food they're serving you're stone-cold munchin'

Music comes on people start to dance

But then you ate so much you nearly split your pants

A girl starts walking guys start gawking

Sits down next to you and starts talking

Says she wants to dance 'cause she likes to groove

So come on fatso and just bust a move

You're on a mission and your wishin'

Someone could cure your lonely condition

Lookin' for love in all the wrong places

No fine girls just ugly faces

Some frustration first inclination

Is to become a monk and leave the situation

But every dark tunnel has a light of hope

So don't hang yourself with a celibate rope

Your movie's showin' so you're goin'

Could care less about the five you're blowin'

Theater gets dark just to start the show

Then ya spot a fine woman sittin' in your row

She's dressed in yellow she says

Hello come sit next to me you fine fellow

You run over there without a second to lose

And what comes next hey bust a move

In this city ladies look pretty

Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty

Tell a funny joke just to get some play

Then you try to make a move and she says No way

Girls are fakin' goodness sakin'

They want the man who brings home the bacon

Got no money and you got no car

Then you got no women and there you are

Some girls are sadistic materialistic

Lookin' for a man makes them opportunistic

They're lyin' on a beach perpetrating a tan

So a brother with the money can be their man

So on the beach you're strollin' real high rollin'

Everything you have is yours and not stolen

A girl runs up with somethin' to prove

So don't just stand there bust a move

Your best friend Harry has a brother Larry

In five days from now he's gonna marry

He's hopin' you can make it there if you can

'Cause in the ceremony you'll be the best man

You say neat-O check your libido

And roll to the church in your new tuxedo

The bride walks down just to start the wedding

And there's one more girl you won't be getting

So you start thinkin' then you start blinking

The bridesmaid looks and thinks that you're winking

She thinks your kinda cute so she winks back

And now your feelin' really firm 'cause the girl is stacked

Reception's jumpin' faces pumpin'

You look at the girl and your heart starts thumpin'

Says she wants to dance to a different groove

Now you know what to do just bust a move
