The main idea behind this song is just a funky, dancy, jiggish type song that's meant to inspire people to "do that funky dance."

Papa's in the icebox
Tryin' to find some ale
Got to find the tonic
To make his body wail

Mama's in the basement
Brewing up some stew
Got to groove the movement
To make these big bones move

I can't believe that with all this dancing you can't hold a groove
I promise you what I can do is hold a beat
