| You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air, kick it all around. |
| Kick it!
|
| I don’t even know how I wanna say, but I know what I wanna say
|
| Do you know where I’m comin' from?
|
| As the bass plays on, and still the guitars strum
|
| While the Colonel beats the drum, so the whole band plays along
|
| And the whole world sings a song, yeah
|
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
|
| And before it falls apart, yeah, yeah
|
| Live a little, give a little, straight from the heart
|
| If this whole world gets ya down, yeah, yeah
|
| You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air. |
| Kick it all around
|
| And if you don’t like the way the music plays, the way it sounds
|
| Hop back in the kitchen, change it all around
|
| Stir it up, baby. |
| Stir it up, baby, stir it up
|
| Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up
|

| Stir it up now, stir it up, baby. |
| And you know:

| Nobody gets somethin' for nothin'
|
| Nobody’s gettin' it for free. |

|
| Stir, stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby
|
| Oh, U B U and I’ll be me, and the world will be free |
