lyrics

Baby are you feeling upset?
Maybe just a little left out?
Is it that everybody else seems fine these days?

Don't go giving up on me yet!
Things are sinking heavy no doubt
But if you're cruising for a lift don't worry Honey
I got ways

There's a slick new twist
That the kids all do
Once you crack the gist
Then you'll dig it too
No you can't resist
When the beat blows through
And the steadies start showing you how
Now

Everybody's doing the right thing
Everybody's doing the right thing
The right thing
Why you trying to be different?
Maybe you should try to be better!
The right thing!
You can do the right thing.

Why you going at it alone?
What is it you're having to prove?
Is it that everybody always told you you were the special one?

Can't you see those speakers are blown?
Quit it with the chasing your groove
What if you aimed a little lower
Tried a little harder
To try to work together to get shit done

It's a hip new hop
That the kids all sweat
And they just can't stop
The more pissed they get
Are you set to drop?
Do you like it yet?
Won't you start it all over again?
Then

Everybody's doing the right thing
Everybody's doing the right thing
The right thing
Why you trying to be different?
Maybe you should try to be better!
The right thing!
You can do the right thing...
