Lyrics The Salmon Dance (Crookers Wow Remix) - The Chemical Brothers

Hello boys and girls, my name is FatLip,
And this is my friend Sammy the Salmon.
[What 'do?]
Today, we're going to teach you some fun new facts about salmon,
And a brand new dance.

Let me introduce to you a brand new dance,
I know you're gonna love it if you give it one chance.
It's not complicated, it's not too hard,
You don't even have to be a hip hop star.
See anyone can do it, all you need is style,
Listen up peep gang, I'ma show you how:
Put your hands to the side, as silly as it seems,
And shake your body like a salmon floatin' up stream!

I'll float up stream
[You know how we do it, you know how we do it]
Again.

[All my peeps spend part of their life in fresh water]
[And part of their life in salt water]
Wow, very interesting.
[We change round a couple of days after spawning]
[Then we die]

When I first did the Salmon, all the people just laughed.
They looked around and stood like I was on crack.
I heard somebody say out loud "what the fuck is that?"
"This nigga's dancin like a fish while he's doin' the snap"
But the more I kept doing it the more they were feelin' it,
And then I heard some bitches say "yo that niggas killin' it".
By the end of the night, everyone was on my team,
And the whole club was dancing like a salmon floatin' up stream!

I'll float up stream
[You know how we do it, you know how we do it]
Again.

[Most of our friends find their home waters by sense of smell]
[Which is even more keen than that of a dog or a bear]
Wow
[My family also rely on ocean currents, tides]
[The gravitational pull of the moon]
[I'm floatin' upstream again]
The moon? Fish pay attention to the moon? Wow. Who knew?
[Did you know?]
What?
[That I could go to Japan, and back.]
You're kidding me. Amazing. Jeez.
[Polluted water can kill both baby salmon, that are developing]
[And the adult salmon, that are on their way to spawn]
Wow what a shame, what a shame
Huh?
Woah
Wow. Hey s-kids, hey give it up for s-Sammy the Salmon and his amazing salmon dance
Huh? Whadda ya say?
Who's hungry?
