Walking down the avenue Nothing to see Just a giant metal box Sitting in a tree Wait It fell down. Hit the concrete Now a strange vibration is taking the street Look out the window What is that sound A heavy grey square rolling over the ground It doesn't have legs It doesn't have wheels But look at the pavement Look how it feels The mailman stopped He dropped the mail The golden retriever is chasing his tail Grandpa is doing a spin on his shoe I do not know why But I am doing it too Because of the 808 Heavy on the bass weight 808 Jiggling the dinner plate Step to the left Let the shoulders drop When the big sub hits You can never stop 808 Yeah The feeling is great Look at the mayor He is losing his mind Doing a shuffle with the pigeons behind Even the statues are tapping their toes Where did it come from Nobody knows The baker is bouncing Dropping the bread The cat is nodding its little furry head The traffic is stuck but the drivers just grin Letting the heavy percussion kick in Because of the 808 Heavy on the bass weight 808 Jiggling the dinner plate Step to the left Let the shoulders drop When the big sub hits You can never stop 808 Yeah The feeling is great Tick Tick Boom Tick Tick Boom Left foot Right foot Clear the room Tick Tick Boom Tick Tick Boom Left foot Right foot Clear the room Because of the 808 Heavy on the bass weight 808 Jiggling the dinner plate Step to the left Let the shoulders drop When the big sub hits You can never stop 808 Yeah The feeling is great It is rolling away Down the hill But my feet are moving They are moving still 808
