"Backbone Slip" lyrics

"Backbone Slip"

I got a backbone
It's made to rock
But I wanna know, what your backbone for
You move like a statue, like a wooden statue
You move like a statue on the dance floor

Mercy Mercy Mercy
Mercy Mercy Mercy

Let me give you a tip
You've got to loosen your hip
Make like a snake is crawling on your backbone
Shimmy on down, you got to shimmy on down
Bend your knees 'til they almost touch the ground

Do
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
Yeah you got to get on
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
Yeah you got to get

Do
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
Yeah you got to get on
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
Yeah you got to get

I know something and its name is soul
It start on the inside and then you start to roll
You got to get that rhythm, you got to feel that beat and then it gonna move from your head to your feet

Do
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
Yeah you got to get on
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
The backbone slip
Yeah you got to get

Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
Do the backbone slip
