Song Lyric Sunday: Funk – ‘Funkytown’

Song Lyric Sunday appears on a Monday this time because, you know, stuff…

Anyway, the theme is funk and when I saw that, there was only one song that came to mind, entirely due to the funniest scene ever (in my humble opinion) of Malcolm In The Middle as Hal (Bryan Cranston) reveals a hidden talent, to the sounds of Lipps Inc (see what they did there?)

Gotta make a move to a town that’s right for me
Town to keep me movin’, keep me groovin’ with some energy

Well, I talk about it, talk about it
Talk about it, talk about it
Talk about, talk about
Talk about movin’

Gotta move on
Gotta move on
Gotta move on

A-won’t you take me to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me to Funkytown?

Gotta make a move to a town that’s right for me
Town to keep me movin’, keep me groovin’ with some energy

Well, I talk about it, talk about it
Talk about it, talk about it
Talk about, talk about
Talk about movin’

Gotta move on
Gotta move on
Gotta move on

Won’t you take me to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me to Funkytown?

Won’t you take me down to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me down to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me down to Funkytown?
Won’t you take me down to Funkytown?

I wanna go to Funkytown
I wanna go to Funkytown
I wanna go to Funkytown
I wanna go to Funkytown
