Mpls Lyrics


Prince Mpls


M P L(L) S



I used 2 play the gig at Archie's Bunker

Then I up and joined the Jeffersons

I was in a band with Lenny Kravitz's mama (Your mother)

Friday night was good every now and then

Now I'm old and doin' so much better (So much better)

Sellin' the wax out the back o' my Subaru

Now I cut this groove with a group called Minneapolis (Minneapolis)

In this here groove, they know just what 2 do, do



CHORUS:

MPLS funkin' house from east 2 west

MPLS funkin' (Shut up)

MPLS - Clinton listen, A on test

MPLS funkin' (Shut up)

(Funkin')



Other people's parties they be fightin'

They're pullin' the guns and actin' like a fool

The way I see it, the more good they be writin'

Makin' U wish that U stayed in a funky school (School)

First class - Guitar 101, James Brown - second hour

Horn part, U ain't got none unless U got Tower of Power

Bootsy will teach U all U need 2 know about the booty bass

(Y'all are crazy)

And if U can't play 7, 7 on the drums, U better not show your face

(U ain't funky)



CHORUS



Funkin'

Nobody buy my joint, it's cool cuz I got one (Hell yeah)

All the others cut 4 radio and cheat the fan

Good time - take us 2 the stage and watch us move your big butt

Cuz everybody, everybody's gettin' funky in this band



Who's in the band guys?

Sgt. Rock (Sonny T, yeah, that's..that's me) (M) (P)

Sittin' in from St. Paul (We're the S-t-e-e-l-e-s) (L) (S)

Cutie Pie on vocals (Jam) (M)

And by way of Queens (Master T) (P) (L) (S)

Hey, U ain't supposed 2 be on this record



MPLS funkin' house from east 2 west

MPLS funkin' (Shut up)

MPLS - Clinton listen, A on test

MPLS funkin'

We just keep funkin'

We just keep funkin'

Get funky



Party people steady pumpin'

Party people steady pumpin
