Get Funky

I’m going downtown yeah
I gotta look sharp
I wanna get noticed
By the boys, the girls
And stand out from the crowd yeah

I’m going downtown y’all
And I gotta look slick
Like I held the lead role
In the lastest, the greatest
Of Hollywood flicks

So they say
My look is loud but I don’t care anyway
So they say
Oh yeah I’m so bold, come on and try it my way

Put on a funky shirt - Wear some colors that hurt
Put on a funky shirt - Everybody - Get funky!

I’m going downtown yeah
I’m gonna hit the scene
Oh yeah get ready y’all
It’s gonna be big and bad like you never have seen

Image makers
Make sure to take some pictures
‘Cause with this on your cover
You’ll be the coolest, the meanest
The only trend setter

So they say
My look is loud but I don’t care anyway
So they say
Oh yeah I’m so bold, come on and try it my way

Put on a funky shirt - Wear some colors that hurt
Put on a funky shirt - Everybody - Get funky!

Oh yeah, cool, alright now, ya man!

I’m going downtown y’all
And I feel like a Star
I’m gonna bless with my presence
The newest posh-posh bar

Hey bartender!
Give me a drink that’s tall
It’s gotta be blue
To match my eyes, my clothes
And the color of my car!

So they say
My look is loud but I don’t care anyway
So they say
Oh yeah I’m so bold, come on and try it my way

Put on a funky shirt - Wear some colors that hurt
Put on a funky shirt - Everybody - Get funky!

This song is for all the Wannabes and Socialites of this planet.

Read it. It speaks for itself and yes, it was meant to be indecently catchy and pretentious.

Did the title or Sly’s riff come first? For sure this song has Sly’s Funky Style written all over it.

As far as the pictures, taken during the recording session, let’s guess that Gab was… Getting Funky? ;-) The funny thing is that our friend diGitum, at the helm, didn’t even notice a thing.
