[Chorus:] They put power in the music, and boy, you oughta hear it now They put power in the music, the boys are gonna show you how [Verse 2:] Round about ‘40 when things got sporty They were dancin' every night till dawn THE BIRD got ‘em hoppin' with his crazy be-boppin' And FRANKIE crooned on and on Then around ‘50 when folks got nifty They were gettin' round to bendin' an ear CHUCK was duck-walkin' and THE KING got rockin' And what do you think was here? [Chorus:] They got power in the music, and boy, you oughta hear it now They got power in the music, the boys are gonna show you how [Verse 3:] Then FOUR BOYS made a brand new noise, from far beyond the sea We loved ALL FOUR and we yelled for more, it was natural as could be Watts went up and loose ends went down, now it's anything it wants to be [Chorus:] We got power in the music, and boy you oughta hear it now We got power in the music, the boys are gonna show you how [Outro:] Don't you know they gave it power, power in the music Yah yah yah Can't you feel it giving you now, power in the music Yay, yay, yay Can't you feel it growing every day, power in the music Yaz,yaz,yaz Don't you feel it disbursing, power in the music Yah, yah, yah You see them dancing up and down now, there's power in the music Yay, yay, yay I feel it growing every day now, there's power in the music Yaz, yaz, yaz
