What you gon’ do with all that junk?
All that junk inside that trunk?
I’ma get, get, get, get, you drunk,
Get you love drunk off my hump.
What u gon’ do with all that ass?
All that ass inside them jeans?
I’m a make, make, make, make you scream
Make u scream, make you scream.
Cos of my hump, my hump, my hump, my hump.
My hump, my hump, my hump, my lovely lady lumps.
I met a girl down at the disco.
She said hey, hey, hey yea let’s go.
I could be your baby, you can be my honey
Lets spend time not money.
I mix your milk wit my cocoa puff,
Milky, milky cocoa,
Mix your milk with my cocoa puff, milky, milky riiiiiiight.
And now, the word on how the Black Eyes Peas wrote this epic (from MTV.com):
Looking back at the day he wrote "My Humps," Will.I.Am remembers one of the most musically challenging times of his career. "It was real intricate, a lot of horns, like, 'No, no, no, instead of going to B flat, go to A minor,' " he recalled.
But all that fussing was for a different song, "Lovely People," for Earth, Wind and Fire's new album. He wrote "My Humps" during a five-minute break. "You've got, like, a real idiotic approach to music, and then you've got the sophisticated all happening in the same six hours," he said, laughing.
Idiotic or not, "My Humps" is a smash that's suddenly redefined "humps" and "lovely little lumps" as part of the human anatomy. Fittingly, the song stemmed from a conversation Will was having with a friend when a beautiful woman walked by. When the rapper asked, "Whatcha gonna do with all that junk," his friend replied, "You should turn that into a song." He got a second opinion when he crossed paths with the woman again and stopped her.
"I was like, 'Hey, my homeboy told me I'm supposed to make a song about you,' and she said, 'Oh yeah, well how's it supposed to go?' " Will recalled. "I was like, 'What you gonna do with all that junk, all that junk?' And she was like, 'That's probably the best pickup line I ever heard.' I was like, 'No, I'm not trying to pick you up!' "
The Peas are still insisting the song is more than just a pickup line — that it's about a woman dissing a man. "I would hate for my sister to be treated like that," Will explained. "Writing it, I wanted to make it to where a girl would feel like, 'Yeah, that's right. [Will starts dancing.] Shoot, don't pull on my hand!' "
"I go out to the clubs and I love to dance and shake my booty, and also at the same time it doesn't mean I'm going home with you," Fergie further explained.
