The Silverback Groove

Lyrics

[Intro] (Slapping bass line, funky wah-wah guitar) Yeah! Check out the silverback! He's got the moves! [Verse 1] Deep in the jungle where the neon glows He stepped out the trees in some shiny clothes White polyester and a gold medallion chain Once he hits the floor, it’ll never be the same The disco ball is spinning, reflecting off his fur He’s a 500-pound rhythm-making blur! [Chorus] He’s a Gorilla (Killer on the floor!) Watch him shimmy (Give him some more!) King of the jungle, King of the beat Making everybody move their funky feet Go Ape! Go Ape! Groovin' to the 70s sound! [Verse 2] The DJ’s playing 'Stayin' Alive' The big man starts his Saturday night drive He does the hustle, he does the bump Listen to that massive funky jungle thump He’s got the footwork, light as a breeze Dropping to his knees with the greatest of ease! [Bridge] (Bass Solo) (Percussion breakdown with bongos and cowbell) Don't slip on the banana peel He's got a heart of velvet and nerves of steel! Work it! Work it! [Chorus] He’s a Gorilla (Killer on the floor!) Watch him shimmy (Give him some more!) King of the jungle, King of the beat Making everybody move their funky feet Go Ape! Go Ape! Groovin' to the 70s sound! [Outro] Keep it funky, big fella. (Fade out with groovy guitar licks and gorilla grunts in rhythm) Yeah, he’s killing it. The baddest primate in the disco. [End]
