Expression Lyrics by Salt N Pepa

Expression Lyrics

    Oh yeah, oh yeah
    You know life is all about expression
    You only live once, and you're not coming back
    So express yourself, yeah

    Chorus
    Express yourself, you gotta be you and only you, babe
    Express yourself, and let me be me
    Express yourself, don't tell me what i cannot do, baby
    Come on and work your body

    Now joe wanna be like bob
    Bob got it goin' on with no job
    And everything rob got he got from robin
    And everything she got she got ho-hoppin'
    My girl jilly wanna be like jackie
    Fat rope chains and i think that's wick-wacky
    Tom and dick wanna be like harry
    Little do they know he's bitin' on barry
    Stan was a scam, but vinnie's legit
    Mercedes coupe hometroop with no kit
    A businessman with a beeper for a reason
    Not like tim because it's in this season

    Chorus

    Oh yeah, oh yeah
    Hey pep, you up next

    Yes, i'm pep and there ain't nobody
    Like my body, yes, i'm somebody
    No, i'm sorry, i'm-a rock this mardis gras
    Until the party ends, friends
    Yes, i'm blessed, and i know who i am
    I express myself on every jam
    I'm not a man, but i'm in command
    Hot damn, i got an all-girl band
    And i wear the gear, yeah, i wanna wear it, too
    I don't care, dear, go ahead and stare (oooo)
    Afraid to be you, livin' in fear (boo)
    Expression is rare, i dare you

    Chorus

    Oh yeah, oh yeah...
    Yo, excuse us while we rap
    Go ahead, girls, express yourself!

    My party, your party, anytime drop in
    Cold hip-hop is always rockin'
    Don't you like it when the music drop
    Jump, spread out, and stop?
    Now bring in the go-go (uh-oh)
    Look at how my butt go rock from left to the right
    You wanna step to me, groove me
    I know you wanna do me
    Come on now, fellas, don't fight

    At my door they're bum-rushin'
    To hear the percussion
    Sound of my go-go band
    I've long ago learned my lesson
    It's all about expression
    Will the real salt and pepa please stand?
    And...

    Express yourself, you've got to be you, babe
    Express yourself, and let me be me
    Express yourself, don't tell me what to do, babe
    Express yourself, come on and work that body

    Express yourself, you've got to be you, babe
    Express yourself, don't tell me what to do, babe
    Express yourself, you've got to be you, babe
    Express yourself, don't tell me what to do, babe

    Express yourself, oh yeah, oh yeah
    Express yourself
