Lately everybody’s so self-conscious.
People talk about each other; so heartless,
but I don’t want to hear those conversations.
I just want to feel the good vibrations.
Whatever happened to the simple pleasures.
It’s hard to live when there’s so much pressure,
but I don’t want to think about the ending
‘cause every moment is a new beginning.
[Chorus]
Ohhhhh ohhh
You know life’s too short to be complicated.
Ohhhhh ohhh
Sometimes, sometimes,
sometimes you gotta
shake, shake what your momma gave you,
pull out your Michael J. moves,
and dance with the record on.
Sometimes, you gotta get
down, down at the supermarket
even if there’s people watchin’
just because you like the song.
Sometimes, you gotta just
shake, shake shake shake shake shake.
Sometimes, you gotta just
shake, shake shake shake shake shake.
Yeah, do we really even know what matters
when we’re stuck inside the same old patterns.
You know it’s easy to forget that feelin’
when the kid in your heart stops dreamin’.
Doesn’t matter if you’re 6 or 60.
It doesn’t matter if you’re rich or fifty.
If the moment feels right just do it.
Who cares if you’re lookin’ foolish?
[Chorus]
Ohhhhh ohhh
You know life’s too short to be complicated.
Ohhhhh ohhh
Sometimes, sometimes,
sometimes you gotta
shake, shake what your momma gave you,
pull out your Michael J. moves,
and dance with the record on.
Sometimes, you gotta get
down, down at the supermarket
even if there’s people watchin’
just because you like the song.
Sometimes, you gotta just
shake, shake shake shake shake shake.
Sometimes, you gotta just
shake, shake shake shake shake shake.
(Ohhhhh ohhhhh)
Tell me, is it wrong if it makes you feel right?
You’ll never know if you don’t even try.
Let it go, you might find that you like to…
[Chorus]
shake, shake what your momma gave you,
pull out your Michael J. moves,
and dance with the record on.
Sometimes, you gotta get
down, down at the supermarket
even if there’s people watching
just because you like the song.
Sometimes you gotta just
shake, shake what your momma gave you,
pull out your Michael J. moves,
and dance with the record on.
Sometimes, you gotta get
down, down at the supermarket
even if there’s people watching
just because you like the song.
(just because you like the song)
Sometimes you gotta just
shake, shake a little shake a little now.
Shake, shake a little shake a little now.
(Sometimes you gotta shake)
Shake, shake a little shake a little now.
(woooaah)
Shake, shake a little shake a little now.
Sometimes, you gotta just… shake.
