Whoo!Come onAll the pretty ladies just clap your handsClap your hands, clap your handsAll the pretty ladies just clap your handsI just got some news todayEverything I wished for came my wayLove and peace and big moneyMore new members in the familyHaters finally dropped their gunsWasn't loaded anyway, scared no oneWent from ten bodyguards to noneIf they don't read, then posse no funBut here come Calibama talkin' mo' stuffGuess a hundred million records ain't enoughAll-Stars are comin' from the first to lastAnybody don't canStay quiet while I bring the noiseWe just got some brand new toysIf y'all ready just show me loveWatch Calibama get buggedUh, all the pretty ladies just clap your handsAll the funky brothers dance to my bandHa, NPG cuttin' up your rugUh, watch Calibama get buggedVerbal coat in flatteryDrum machine electricityEvery time I look I seeAnother facsimilePick and drumstick not in handSee no music on the standGrab your partner, gather 'roundThis is how we all get downWhoo! All the pretty ladies just clap your handsAll the funky brothers dance to my bandNPG, NPG cuttin' up your rugUh, lawd, watch Calibama get buggedCome onHornsHornsLike a rim shot on a New Roots jointMy band's tight, yeahAnointed, all naturalPass my tape, go straight to jailAnd another thing, when I singBlack and white hold handsStart clappin' when we enter the jamBack dance if you wanna just clap your handsHere we come, y'all, uhPrisoner BandGood GodAll the pretty ladies just clap your handsAll the funky brothers dance to my bandUh, New Power G, yeah, we got a new drugHere we come, y'all, Prisoner BandLook outHappy 'cause we just got paidFree from all contractsChillin' in the shade of the sun's lightOh, we got it rightDistribute your own, make a mil' overnightBefore the tax come, quick buy some landDon't build nothin', just clap your handsDon't build nothin', just clap your handsHere we come, y'all, uhPrisoner BandHa, Prisoner BandOh, hear me nowRecord labels used to be a friend of mineNow they're just a monumental waste of timeSell a million records, make a dollar a popYou're still on recruit when your band get droppedGot your own label but you're givin' 'em halfExpenses off the top, who's takin' a bath?Seven years of grind like it's only your nameIs what you pay to keep yourself a slave to that gameAnd what you can't do alone is not worth the fameAll of y'all get older but I still look the sameToo funky, y'all can't understandJust clap your hands, just clap your handsUh, the Prisoner Band
