They wanna take all my money
They wanna kick me outta my place
They try to break me
Try to make me
Just like the guy next door
But mister, can’t you see –
That ain’t me.

I wanna do the Boogaloo
All I wanna do is Boogaloo
I just wanna do the Boogaloo

The Boogaloo, Ohh yeah
The Boogaloo, Ohh yeah

Oh well I had to go’n see the tax-man
With a whole lot of papers too
I was dreaming
And he was screaming.
You better work the night-time too my friend
But mister, can’t you see –
That ain’t me.

I wanna do the Boogaloo
All I wanna do is Boogaloo
I just wanna do the Boogaloo

Boogaloo, Ohh yeah
The Boogaloo, Ohh yeah

Sometimes I wanna get back to nature
And live in the tree-tops too
Like a monkey
Am I funky
Is that exactly what they want me to do
But mister, can’t you see –
That ain’t me.

All I wanna do the Boogaloo
All I wanna do is Boogaloo
I just wanna do the Boogaloo

All I wanna do the Boogaloo
All I wanna do is Boogaloo
I just wanna do the Boogaloo

All I wanna do the Boogaloo
All I wanna do is Boogaloo
I just wanna do the Boogaloo
