[Intro]
What? That sound like the Mothership is coming
What you know about the Mothership?
I know as soon as I get my Mothership, all the little mamas gon' be on board
This is X baby, X baby
("This woman's gotta have it")
It's Bootsy, baby

[Verse 1: Ice Cube]
Funky, funky Bootzilla
Watch the boy play the bass like Godzilla
Watch me pimp the mic like a gorilla
In a Snoop DeVille when I go get her
Now I'm dressed to kill when you see me with her
How I make you feel, just a little bitter
You can take a pill to try to feel better
Or you can ask Bootsy to help you get her

[Interlude]
Yeah, play on, playa
Cincinnati, Ohio, yay-yay
Don't you wanna get down with Funk G? (That's me)

We have a Snoop Dogg protégé in the house
But hey baby, I didn't think you'd be so young
(Well, you don't look so bad yourself)
Oh, and he's fresh, too, I like that
So, um, what do you wanna be when you grow up, sweetie?
(Well, I wanna be a rap star just like Snoop Dogg)
Ah yeah, come on, you got to do it
[Verse 2: Snoop Dogg]
Hello, it's Snoopy Collins, Bootsy's baby brother
I got the P in me — come on, baby bubba
Slippin', slidin', dippin', glidin'
Ridin' to a whole new dimension
It's like playin' some ball, me and my doggs
Jammin' on all'a y'all (All y'all)
Get up off the wall
You can smell it, Snoopadelic, run go tell it (That's funky)
They gon' yell it, we gon' sell it
Y'all gon' buy it 'cause y'all feel it
The groove just set
One more rhyme, one more crime, one more time
It's all the same, for real'a, my nilla
It's Snoop and Bootzilla, my nilla
You've been losin', I got the groovin'
That's guaranteed to keep your party people movin'
Come on

[Interlude]
Keep it going for the legends
The king of the kings who sing with much passion
Top fashion remain, all of the great classics
With fantastic grooves that got us all asking to sing it...
Sing it...
Sing it (We got funk, we got style)
[Verse 3: Chuck D]
Recognize, son, as you drop it on the one
We just getting started, uh, I beg your pardon
Recognize, people, where the peace comes from
Pay attention in the music 'cause this is it
Salute to get with it so y'all will never quit it
It's a beautiful thing and before y'all spit it
It's a natural high, you can't get over it
Bass so low you gotta love if you livin' it
Your vocals beyond local 'cause this is global
Don't be just be doin' it just to get paid
Or just to be fakin' it to just get laid
Can't be afraid to take it to the stage
Just look who we lost in this millennium age
Michael Jackson, James Brown, and Isaac Hayes
Teddy, Barry, Luther, Lena, Nina, JMJ, and Rick James
We gotta live up to the names

[Interlude]
Play it for my hometown
We just gonna get down
Quit messin' with my groove, y'all
It's Bootsy, baby
Do that funk, do that funk, do that funk, do that funk
Ah, do that funk
("This woman's gotta have it")
[Outro: Bootsy Collins, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg]
Ah yeah, play on, playa
Cincinnati, Ohio
Ah yeah
Yay-yay
We got to do it (Do it 'til we get it)
Los Angeles, California
Ah, we ain't on the porch here, mama
