Michael Franti - Everybody Ona Move lyrics

rate me

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

The movement

Is like a phenomenon

You never know where it's comin' from

You never know when the next big sound gonna come

Baghdad, Hong Kong

Tokyo, King Kong

Synagogue, singsong

Hot beat, car bomb

Don't matter who's on the chart number one

Spearhead sound for the people everyone

Thunder comes from the bass and the drums

Rain or shine never stop anyone

I like my bass loudy, loudy, louder!

I like my bass loudy, loudy, louder!

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Oh, yes

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes

Touchin' down on mother earth

I take mud and turn it into pottery

Lottery, I give all a chance

As I welcome all to the dance

Angel, criminal, animal

Mineral and spiritual

All sinners, all head-spinners

So-called experts, we're all beginners

Enter the age of Aquarians

Carnivores and vegetarians

It's the next sound wave

Soon I may, ah, ask you to behave

El Presidente, you behave

Once war stops sendin' us to the grave

Vamanos, Vamanos

All walls will fall like dominoes

Earthquakin' and shakin'

Please don't stop, rock

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Oh, yes

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

And you don't stop

Yes, all walls will fall

All walls will fall

I never quit, I never give up

I'd hate to have me as my own enemy

Because music is not competition

Music is not repetition

Music is love, love for the masses

Love for all classes

Love conquers all

Love accepts all, love respects all

Love dares to dream

A love supreme, a love supreme

Soldier of fortune, open your cookie

Unfold the paper, stop looky looky

Takin' order, the march to the kitchen

Food for the masses, that's the new mission

Salam shalom, shalom salam

The one sound louder than a bomb

The whole world sings this song

Check it, stop, rock

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Oh, yes

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

And you don't stop

Hold up, hold up, I forgot something

I like my bass loudy, loudy, louder!

I like my bass loudy, loudy, louder!

This track is love fortified

This track is love amplified

This track combats genocide

Seven inch Jamaican forty five

Take a trip Gaza strip

ID's, a bob up, flip

I rock black scorpions

And a shout out to Ethiopians

Shot rings out everybody gonna run

One woman cries out for the loss of her son

Hold it high everybody everyone

All roads lead to love or the one

Don't you forget why you came to the dance

Might never ever be another better chance

Don't you forget why you came to the dance

The drums and bass are the king of the dance

Take a [Incomprehensible]

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Oh, yes

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

Come on, come on

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Big people ona the move

Little people ona move

Young people ona the move

Old people ona move, come on

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Everybody ona move

Everybody let's move

Yes, yes, yes

Touchin' down on mother earth

I take mud and turn it into pottery

Lottery, I give all a chance

As I welcome all to the dance

Ona move

Everybody let's move

And you don't stop

And you don't quit

Keep rockin', keep rockin' it

Keep shockin' it, come on
