[Parrish smith] Sick em champ... Well I have a new dance, that you all must learn You may have seen the pee-wee herman but it's had it's turn Now this brand new dance, I know you not with it You might break your neck, to really try to get it If you seen the clumsy movie it was called the jerk You had to check out steve martin as he started to work He was doin freaky moves with his feet and head With his blue farmer suit and his big pro-keds Now if you wanna learn it, it really takes time That's why I'm here now tellin you this rhyme And if you never seen it, then I'll be startin My brand new funky dance, called the steve martin Like this... get em steve, get em Get em steve, get em steve, get em Get em... Like this...
