Track #2 from the album, "Themes for the Ordinarily Strange," by Airpushers. It features vocals by soul singer and American Idol background singer, Sy Smith. Very funky, and it sends out an important message to the music world.
Lyrics:
Intro:
Hey DJ, hey music man . . .
(We have a serious issue here.
Yes, we do have a serious issue.
Good evening, Detective Greenhorn.
Somebody stole the funk.
I just want U 2 turn the funk up.)
Verse 1 -
Somebody tell me, what happened 2 the funk?
What happened 2 the smokey grooves that used 2 bump up from my trunk?
What happened 2 analogies, and metaphors, and words?
I miss somethin' differing 2 what everyone has heard.
Hey DJ, hey music man,
Hey record stores, hey Bandstand,
I think it's time that U played a new tune.
Here's 1 4 U 2 start with, now dig on this groove (Well alright!)
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh . . .
Verse 2 -
U can't fill in the blanks with whatever U like.
Picture ridin' in the sky on chocolate mountain bikes.
Bouncin', bouncin' off of clouds,
Springs like, springs like trampolines,
Landin', landin' on a Sunday moon
With lips like Angeline's.
Angelina Jolie has got lips 4 days.
Oh yes she does, and obviously it pays, but
I digress, yes I'm under 2 much stress ... (yeah)
But back 2 the matter of the funk of which I'm so obsessed.
I think it's time that U heard a new tune.
Here's 1 4 U 2 start with, now dig on this groove (Well alright!)
Uh huh, uh huh . . .
Fill in the blanks
Uh huh, uh huh . . .
Fill in the blanks
