Roxanne Shante - My Groove Gets Better Lyrics

My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?

I got the skill to deal all the funky shit
Plus the hips that just don't quit
My name is Shanté, but you can call me Shannie
Makes no diff', word up, word to mommy
I'm still the queen up on the scene
So fly that I cause your man to fiend
Now hold up, this has gotten outta hand
There's a posse of witches F-ing up the program
So grab your brooms and prepare for flight
Because I'm back and this time I'm more than hype
I'm causing ruckus, yo, bust this, I cause activity
If action is what you want, they might give it to me
I got a gift to lift the party personnel
I'm the director, directing the party well
So come along and step in my dimension
And bob your head to my funky invention 'cause

My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?

The microphone passing, indeed, we can do this
And when I'm done, you're gonna be shoeless
'Cause I'm not an amateur, I'll make you get down
So you better have much soul when I'm around
I go off, get loose like a master
Deal with Shanté, get me a glass of milk
I treat MCs just like cookies
Chew 'em up, spit 'em out, to all rookies
Be on the lookout, in other words look twice
All competition, huh, I put on ice
Fickle and feeble opponents, I find them
When you're in line with me, you can't win
I'm just too advanced, a typical hot prose
I do damage, yes, to the utmost
So hold up, step back, you ought to think twice
Then think again 'cause Shanté is too nice
On beats like this, goddamn, I get nifty
You must be nuts trying to get with me
I'm sorta on the psychotic tip
Dissin' like a acrobatic, I'll flip
'Cause I'm the Q-U-double-E-N of rappin'
Funky force indeed, the girl's packin'
You see? I'm hype to the letter
And bust a move, my groove gets better

My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?

Now here we go again, and, yo, I keep goin'
Flowin', doin' what I do best
Damn, I oughta have an S on my chest
Not 'cause I'm super, I'm superior, do you agree?
Hm, your answer? Easily
Just like a tool, my groove gets better
I flow like a breeze, you blow like a feather
No camera needed to take this picture
Go ahead and smile and I'ma still hit you
Just like a Mack truck, lift and get smacked up
You best back up, hm, in fact, uh
You better make, huh, a detour
And lead yourself straight for the door
I'll come back whenever with the next man
I think it would be clever to have a game plan
'Cause I don't hesitate, huh, I just blow 'em
I might shoot 'em, freak it, I might nuke 'em
Blow 'em up, you know what's up, I do the demo
Shanté rocks the S.S. Minnow
In other words, I tips the boat
Competition is comedy, nothing but a joke
So deal with this? Oh, come on, never
My name is Shanté and my groove gets better

My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
My groove gets better and better now, don't it?
