"1, 2 Step" is a dance-pop/hip hop song recorded by Ciara and Missy Elliott for Ciara's debut album Goodies. Written by Ciara and Missy Elliott and produced by Jazze Pha, it was released as the album's second single in October 2004 in the United States and the second quarter of 2005 internationally. It reached the top ten in several countries worldwide. The song is heavily-inspired by 1980s electro music production. Throughout the lyrics, Ciara gives a description of how the song's beat feels as she demands party-goers to dance to the music.

Ciara a 'military brat' who has lived in Germany, New York, California, Arizona and Nevada -- has found herself in the mix with some of the city's biggest and brightest producers, among them Jazze Pha who signed Ciara to his Sho' Nuff label. Ciara is only the second artist (the first was Usher with his hit single "Yeah") to release a Crunk & B song. Ciara's signature dance moves include the back bend, splits and leg open.

Ciara set her sights on her dream and went after it. "I wrote down on paper that I had a goal to be a professional singer and I wanna be there soon....I had to sacrifice a lotta things and I think that was the key thing to get me there. I cut out going to the movies, I cut out hanging with my friends, I actually told some of my friends 'This month we're not gonna hang out or talk on the phone.' I don't have too many friends anyway less is better for me. I cut out the boyfriend actually I had my heart broken so I was really like, 'I'm 'bout to do this. I'm 'bout to be on top." From there, things moved swiftly: She joined a girl group, left the group to go solo, nabbed a publishing deal and eventually hooked up with Jazze Pha!

LYRICS:
Ladies and Gentlemen
(Ladies and Gentlemen, ooh wee)

Missy
The princess is here
(Ooh wee)

Automatic, supersonic, hypnotic, funky fresh
Work my body, so melodic this beat flows right through my chest
Everybody, ma and papi came to party, grab somebody
Work your body, work your body, let me see you 1, 2 step
(Here we go)
Rock it, don't stop it
Everybody get on the floor
Crank the party up
We about to get it on
Let me see ya, 1, 2 step
I love it when ya, 1, 2 step
Everybody, 1, 2 step
We about to get it on
(This beat is)
Outrageous, so contagious, make you crave it
(Jazze made it)
So retarded, top-charted, ever since the day I started
Strut my stuff and yes I flaunt it, goodies make the boys jump on it
No, I can't control myself, now let me do my 1, 2 step
(Come on)
Rock it, don't stop it
Everybody get on the floor
Crank the party up
We about to get it on
Let me see ya, 1, 2 step
I love it when ya, 1, 2 step
Everybody, 1, 2 step
We about to get it on
We gon' drop the beat like this, ooh wee
It don't matter to me, we can dance slow
(Ladies and Gentlemen)
Which ever way the beat drop, our bodies will go
(I like this)
So swing it over here, Mr. DJ
(Hey, hey)
And we will, we will rock you
(Oh yeah)
It don't matter to me, we can dance slow
(Dance slow)
Which ever way the beat drop, our bodies will go
(Yeah, yeah)
So swing over here, Mr. DJ
(Ladies and Gentlemen)
And we will, we will rock you
(Wee)
I shake it like jello, make the boys say hello
'Cause they know I'm rockin' the beat
I know you heard about a lot of great MC's
But they ain't got nothing on me
Because I'm 5 foot 2, I wanna dance with you
And I'm sophisticated fun
I eat fillet mignon and I'm nice and young
Best believe I'm number one
(Ooh)
Rock it, don't stop it
Everybody get on the floor
Crank the party up
(Ooh)
We about to get it on
(Come on)
Let me see ya, 1, 2 step

Everybody, 1, 2 step
We about to get it on
Rock it, don't stop it
Everybody get on the floor
Crank the party up
We about to get it on
Let me see ya, 1, 2 step
I love it when ya, 1, 2 step
Everybody, 1, 2 step
We about to get it on
This is for the hearing impaired
A Jazze Pha production
(Ooh wee)
(Ooh wee)
