That's My Thang!

THAT’S MY THANG!

Cho 1:  I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’s my thang!

I do it all the time and I do it for free 

’Cause nobody does my thang like me!        

I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’ s my thang! 

(I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’s my thang!) 

My thang is bakin’, I love to bake    

And ev’rytime I do it      

M’friends eat ev’ry thang I make 

Because they love to chew it!  

            My thang is readin’, I love to read

            I used t’read real slow

            But now I learned t’build up speed

            Look out now, here I go!!

Cho: 1

My thang is dancin’, I love to dance,

I dance on flyin’ feet

I dance all night and I dance all day

An’ I only stop to eat!

            My thang is drummin’, I love t’drum

            I always feel that rhythm

            When I hear music, I start t’hummmm

            An’ I got to play right with ’em!

Cho 2:  I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’s my thang!

It’s the thang I do when I’m feelin’ blue,

It’s the thang I do when I’m happy too!

I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’s my thang!

(I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’s my thang!)

My thang’s mathematics I love math

For me, there’s nothin’ to it!

M’brain runs numbers around that graph

An’ I zip my way right through it!

            My thang is singin’, I love to sing

            I make my loud voice gli-i-i-i-ide

            But when I sing inside the house,

            They tell me “Sing outside!”  So I do!!

My thang is laughin’, I love to laugh

’Til m’eyes and nose get runny!

M’friends get started, an’ I can’t stop

’Cause their faces look so funny!!!

Chorus 1

I said-a, Hey! She-bang! That’s my thang! (x3)
