Hip Hop, Hibby to the hibbity Hip Hop
I was out moon-walking in flip flops
Beyond the moon's gravity
I buzzed Uranus (not your body cavity)
I was 12 years old
I thought Pluto would be cold
But it's got its own charm
I find the people quite warm
They like the wave and the windmill 'case the winds are quite frenetic
Thought we'd be a big hit there and that proved to be prophetic
We broke our best moves out
Got a litle rowdy
Spun all around
and electrified the crowd
With so much electricity
Left em debatin' our historicity
resulting in much free publicity
Fifteen famous minutes that proved not to be the case
'Cause we're still all the rage me and the Breakers in Space

[chorus]

Slung-shot around the sun and did the time-warp again
Tried to rock for Dr. Spok but he'n't wanna be our friend
His eyes was like Madness, one step beyond
Mumblin somethin bout the 80s, Wrath of Khan & Mr. Montalbán
Who had some rap records and a disco ball
and we didn't care what it was called we broke to it ALL
toprockin'... poppin' and lockin'
New Degobah, North Klackabacka & COMPTON
So, pop & lock while we rock for justice
You don't think you see the stardust but just trust us
It's here, it's there, it's in front of your face
It's love and it's lace and it's Breakers in Space

[chorus]

9 planets when we started, but now there's only 8
One got ate at a egg-head debate
So learn new tricks you ol' dog it's never to late
And blend in some new styles you create
Build me a beat, I'll bust the babble like a bubble
And once we hit the Tribbles with the Trebble now you know they in trouble
No ray-gun and we have fun still on the real
So leave your asteroid feild and remember the feel
From when breakin wasn't just showin off your body
It was Ladi dadi and we like to party
There wasn't no fans because the circle expands
'Til everybody could see more than just feets and hands
And everybody could get in with no maybes
Old white ladies and itty bitty babies
Could just catch a groove and bust a move and lay it to waste
Just like the Breakers in Space

[chorus]
