The Roof Is On Fire... GenX Social History Songs

Lyrics

Hey girls, hey boys
Superstar DJs here we go!
Somebody say 'ho' (ho)
Say 'ho, ho' (ho, ho)
Now somebody, anybody, everybody scream
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you're not a square from Delaware
And you got on clean underwear
And your momma ain't on welfare
Somebody say 'oh, yeah' (oh, yeah)
Oh, yeah! (oh, yeah)
Well DJ's spinning on the wheels of steel
Like it ain't no thing, cause he is for real
He's cuttin' the jams with a wave of his hand
And it sounds so fresh it'll make you stand
You hear the highs in your eyes, the bass in your face
This super DJ can rock the place
You hear bass, highs, tremblin' tones
He can even cut the jams without the headphones
Well Stick Rick is rockin' to the break of day
Makin' all the fly girls that wanna give me a play
Now if your DJ rocks to the break of day
Let me hear you say 'DJ' (DJ)
DJ (DJ)
We're gonna rock to the break of day
Say 'Keep on rockin' it' (keep on rockin' it)
Keep on rockin' it (keep on rockin' it)
Come on y'all keep on rockin' it (keep on rockin' it, keep on rockin' it)
Heh
Now clap your hands and stomp your feet
While the DJ scratch to the funky beat
He's makin' you move until your body sweat
He's even givin' you more than you supposed to get
Now twist and turn and let your body burn
And show everybody what you just learned
Let's all get together and form a crowd
While the DJ play it, nice and loud
Now everybody in the place to be
Let's all get together, repeat after me
Say, 'rock the house' (rock the house)
Say, 'rock the house' (rock the house)
Everybody say, 'turn it out' (turn it out)
Come on turn it out (turn it out)
I like it (I like it)
Come on I love it (I love it)
Let me hear ya, I like it (I like it)
One more time, I love it (I love it)
Come on
Well I'm the master blaster, a man to see
Rockin' the bass for everybody
If ya DJ rocks to the break of day
Somebody say 'DJ' (DJ)
DJ (DJ)
We're gonna rock it to the break of day
Say 'keep on rockin' it' (keep on rockin' it)
Keep on rockin' it (keep on rockin' it)
Keep on rockin' it (keep on rockin' it)
Keep on rockin' it (keep on rockin' it)
DJs now, I'm coming strong
You better take my advice
Because it lasts this long
Is rocking the house
One job well done
For any DJ in this world to be someone
To make a fella say "ho" the girls get loose
And if the crowd respond to that, the jock got juiced
Enough pull to make some cash
'Cause it's all about duds
And they can jam-pack the place
No matter how much you spend
So if you wanna make some cash or be a DJ
You must rock the house right and know what to play
Now everybody in the place to be
Let's all get together, repeat after me
Say, 'oh' (oh)
Say, 'oh, ho' (oh, ho)
Once again I like it (I like it)
Come on I love it (I love it)
One more time I like it (I like it)
Come on I love it (I love it) ha!
All the fellas in the house if ya wanna break dance
Say, 'break dance' (break dance)
Say, 'break dance' (break dance)
Come on
'Break break, break, break' (break break, break, break)
Cut it up DJ
This DJ cut different ways
So let me hear you cut it, DJ
Let's make some noise (ho)
Let's make some noise come on
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
(We don't need no water, let the motherfucker burn)
(Burn, motherfucker, burn)
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
(We don't need no water, let the motherfucker burn)
(Burn, motherfucker, burn)
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
