CHORUS
Here and now you've got to live your life
Don't worry how-- just go hard tonight
C'mon--Dance like it don't matter

VERSE 1
Once upon a rhyme, not long ago
Flat tops were in and you cut your afros
I went to a club on the hip-house scene
With Doc Marten's and a pair of baggy jeans
It might've been Queens or the Bronx, I think
and it was 18 to party, 21 to drink
I blinked in darkness, the suckers let me in
The night of my life was about to begin
Inside now NOTHING could stop me
Three songs later met the first Nice body !
a good lookin' girl--
From her voice, I could tell she was a Brooklyn girl
The world stopped It seemed to vanish
I asked what she was half Black, half Spanish
Not that it mattered, just conversatin
She went to the bar and I took her invitation

CHORUS
Here and now you've got to live your life
Don't worry how-- just go hard tonight
C'mon--Dance like it don't matter

VERSE 2
Everybody move, nobody front
It was February--Black history month
I turned my beeper off so I wouldn't be on call
There were 99 bottles of beer on the wall
but none would fall so I started to reach
She had two orgasms and a sex on the beach
Such each ice cube and still wanted more
You know what I was thinkin'? Mmmm Lipstick on a straw
I said to the cutie "This is where hello stops"
then I flavored her tongue with three different jello shots
tasted it off her, her eyes got softer
She said "You gonna dance now?" -- I said "Thanks for the offer"
Lost all control; the strobe lights was blinding
Krs was rhyming this girl was grinding
My inhibitions were totally shattered
and that's when she told me to "Dance like it don't matter"

CHORUS
Here and now you've got to live your life
Don't worry how-- just go hard tonight
C'mon--Dance like it don't matter

VERSE 3 - Krs-One
Dance like it don't matter, on stage a dope rapper
I see Greenie on the dance floor--- go dada!
Pockets don't grow skinny they grow fatter
Music pumpin' so damn hard, the glass shatters
but there's Greenie, dancin' to the CD
I'm gonna be me, I hope this cat sees me
Party all packed and the drinks are goin' up
While KRS raps, it's Greenie blowin' up
Dancefloor I got the whole spot leanin
Hear it, the spirit--you got the whole place fiendin'
Real emceeing, real streets you seein'
Kickin' live lyrics to live huiman beings
This is what we do, we're not in a trance
Like my man Lelu, we like to dance
Can you dance? Can you move your body?
Can you move somebody? Are you new in the party?
There's the hottie--but her man got the shotty
and I'm the emcee that puts the boogie in your body
