Song - Wah-Watusi
(Lyrics)

Wah, wah-a Watusi
C'mon and take a chance and get-a with this dance
Wah, wah-a Watusi
Oh, baby, it's the dance made-a for romance (shoo-bop, shoo-bop, ahh)

Baby, baby, when you do The Twist
Never, never do you get yourself kissed
'cause you're always dancin' far apart
The Watusi, girl, is-a really smart

Wah-a, wah, wah-a Watusi
C'mon and take a chance and get-a with this dance (shoo-bop, shoo-bop, ahh)

Baby, baby, when you do The Fly
Your arms are wasted wavin' in the sky
Come on and hold me like a lover should
The Watusi makes you feel so good

Wah-a, wah, wah-a Watusi
Oh, baby, it's the dance made-a for romance
Yay!!

(shoo-bop, shoo-bop, ahh)

Baby, baby, that's the way it goes
Nothing happens when you Mash Potatoes
I just gotta fall in love with you
Watusi is the dance to do

Wah-a, wah, wah-a Watusi
C'mon and take a chance and get-a with this dance

Wah, wah-a Watusi
FADE
Oh, baby, it's the dance made-a for romance

I hadn't thought about this song in years and then I was watching "The Help" and it was playing (at least I think it was that movie, might have been another...fun song. Loved the production of the video.

[Parrotluver2]

it's actually called the wah wahtusi by the orlons which made a whole bunch of chart toppers back in the day they were big

Why is the first image an animated Micheal Jackson and Lady GaGa doing the Watusi?? Also, why @ 0:46 is Lou Grant ( Ed Asner) doing the Watusi? Then at 1:15 we have Obama doing it... least it explains somewhat , what hes been up to the last 4 years
