The Underground Lyrics by Bernadette Cooper

Drama According to Bernadette Cooper

1990

[Intro]
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
Whooh!
Brrr!
Been sleep on the job, been sleep on
Been sleep on the job
[Verse 1]
Been sleep on the job
Workin' night and day
Tryin' to catch up on my bills
I got my check today
And as usual, Uncle Sam is weird
He deducted half my pay, unh
So I'm going home to unwind
Take a nice hot bath
And get this pressure off my mind
I gotta go to a place
Where I can explode
Where they don't ask me questions
And where they don't even know my name
[Chorus]
So I'm goin' to the underground (Boy)
Said I gotta go underground (Boy)
Hallelujah to the underground (Boy)
Goin' to the club underground (Boy)
(So I can jack my body, freak my body, and dance)
(Ow!)
[?]
[Verse 2]
Bank of America
They repossessed my car
It was a 1984
But I will survive in San Francisco
They were fierce enough
To survive a 7.1 (7.1)
[Chorus]
So I'm goin' to the underground (Boy)
Said I gotta go underground (Boy)
Hallelujah to the underground (Boy)
Goin' to the club underground (Boy)
(So I can jack my body, freak my body, and dance)
(Boy, boy, boy, boy)
(Boy, boy, boy, boy)
(Boy, boy, boy, boy)
Don't move, don't move (Boy, boy, boy, boy)
[Bridge]
Release yourself
Just let it go
We're all survivors
Just dance everybody
Release yourself (Release yourself)
Just let it go (Just let it go)
We're all survivors (We're all survivors)
Just dance, dance (Just dance, dance)
[Break]
(Work it, work it)
(Work it, work it)
(Work it, work it)
(Work it, work it)
Work it, work it
Work it, work it (Hey)
Work it, work it, work it
[Chorus]
So I'm goin' to the underground (Boy)
Said I gotta go underground (Boy) (Work it)
Hallelujah to the underground (Boy)
Goin' to the club underground (Boy) (Work it)
(So I can jack my body, freak my body, and dance)
Work it
Work it, work it, yes
Work it, baby, ah, ah, ah
Hallelujah to the underground (B-b-b-b-boy)
