Lyrics

[00:01.64] Oh yeah, oh yeah
[00:10.49] You know life is all about expression
[00:13.98] You only live once, and you're not coming back
[00:15.98] So express yourself, yeah
[00:18.42] Express yourself, you gotta be you and only you, babe
[00:23.42] Express yourself, and let me be me
[00:28.30] Express yourself, don't tell me what I cannot do, baby
[00:32.17] Come on and work your body
[00:35.99] Now Joe wanna be like Bob
[00:37.61] Bob got it goin' on with no job
[00:39.86] And everything Rob got he got from Robin
[00:42.11] And everything she got she got ho-hoppin'
[00:43.79] My girl Jilly wanna be like Jackie
[00:46.61] Fat rope chains and I think that's wick-wacky
[00:48.79] Tom and Dick wanna be like Harry
[00:51.05] Little do they know he's bitin' on Barry
[00:53.30] Stan was a scam, but Vinnie's legit
[00:55.48] Mercedes coupe hometroop with no kit
[00:56.80] A businessman with a beeper for a reason
[00:59.36] Not like Tim because it's in this season
[01:02.17]
[01:03.05] Express yourself, you gotta be you and only you, babe
[01:08.55] Express yourself, and let me be me
[01:12.05] Express yourself, don't tell me what I cannot do, baby
[01:16.11] Come on and work your body
[01:20.24]
[01:22.24] Oh yeah, oh yeah
[01:28.96] Hey Pep, you up next
[01:29.96] Yes, I'm Pep and there ain't nobody
[01:31.20] Like my body, yes, I'm somebody
[01:32.83] No, I'm sorry, I'm-a rock this Mardis Gras
[01:36.08] Until the party ends, friends
[01:38.15] Yes, I'm blessed, and I know who I am
[01:41.02] I express myself on every jam
[01:42.52] I'm not a man, but I'm in command
[01:44.89] Hot damn, I got an all-girl band
[01:47.27] And I wear the gear, yeah, I wanna wear it, too
[01:50.02] I don't care, dear, go ahead and stare
[01:52.33] Afraid to be you, livin' in fear
[01:54.58] Expression is rare, I dare you
[01:55.82]
[01:56.63] Express yourself, you gotta be you and only you, babe
[02:00.32] Express yourself, and let me be me
[02:02.82] Express yourself, don't tell me what I cannot do, baby
[02:11.63] Come on and work your body
[02:14.72]
[02:16.54] Oh yeah, oh yeah...
[02:27.60] Yo, excuse us while we rap
[02:29.66] Go ahead, girls, express yourself!
[02:31.91] My party, your party, anytime drop in
[02:34.79] Cold hip-hop is always rockin'
[02:37.54] Don't you like it when the music drop
[02:39.29] Jump, spread out, and stop?
[02:40.29] Now bring in the go-go
[02:41.85] Look at how my butt go rock from left to the right
[02:44.43] You wanna step to me, groove me
[02:46.43] I know you wanna do me
[02:47.49] Come on now, fellas, don't fight
[02:48.80] At my door they're bum-rushin'
[02:50.80] To hear the percussion
[02:51.99] Sound of my go-go band
[02:53.05] I've long ago learned my lesson
[02:55.18] It's all about expression
[02:56.31] Will the real Salt and Pepa please stand?
[02:58.56] And...
[02:59.31] Express yourself, you've got to be you, babe
[03:03.77] Express yourself, and let me be me
[03:07.14] Express yourself, don't tell me what to do, babe
[03:11.89] Express yourself, come on and work that body
[03:15.90] Express yourself, you've got to be you, babe
[03:21.72] Express yourself, don't tell me what to do, babe
[03:24.48] Express yourself, you've got to be you, babe
[03:28.16] Express yourself, don't tell me what to do, babe
[03:33.04] Express yourself, oh yeah, oh yeah
[03:36.91] Express yourself
