We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang

We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang

Everybody, shake your body
We don't ill, we chill at a party
Keep a groove that's sensual
Three-dimensional, unquestionable the lover is professional

Got a category, my own and I'm the president
Don't be a monk but you're summonin' up the resident
With my particular style, style, particular
Extracurricular, smoother and trickier

Throwin' on lyrics like you throw up a flapjack
You're a Chicen McNugget and I'm a Big Mac
Brainstorm soloist, have a Coca-Colaist, doin' very well
'Cause it took the right road to this

Path, make the undertake, the record breaker
Get up on the floor and do the Heavy D shake
Started with a pow and I'm going to end with a bang
We've got our own thang

We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang

Picture the set, girlies wet with sweat
In the corner people sittin' down
They've had as much as they could possibly get
Here while I'm lampin', feeling like a champ
Push up on a cutie, phone digits, I'm stamping'

The place was packed though, stuffed like an Oreo
Everybody broke for a Heavy D video
Pumpin' in stereo, people said, 'Here we go,'
A cutie down in front said, 'Heavy you're my hero'

Understand this, before you make a comment
There's always a meanin' in a Heavy D statement
In this life, I strive for improvement
Be your own guide, follow your own movement

Love is a legend, me, I'm legendary at it
Livin' on the mike makes me a rappin' acrobat
Don't try to swing, 'cause you couldn't even hang
We've got our own thang

We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang

Original, individual, smooth criminal, dance a lot
Dance a little, shuffle to the middle
Don't clock anybody, let them all clock you
Don't be down with anybody, let them all be down with you

Stay self-managed, self-kept, self-taught
Be your own man, don't be borrowed, don't be bought
Started with a pow and I'm going to end it with a bang
We've got our own thang

We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang

We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang

We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
We've got our own thang, we've got our own thang
