Batten down(K Coleman copyright 2017)

I Got to step up for the main show, impactful powerful intro. when the music goes low well and stand up high. How high? (Sky high )a little lower, think from a mountain top tower, with a Leslie speaker spinning , projecting for miles

We take a step back, to perceive the situation
nod and monst in full effect

And now, for the grand foray we take to the dance floor in a big hurry.
And now, for the grand foray we take to the dance floor
And now, for the grand foray we take to the dance floor in a big hurry.

And now, for the grand foray we take to the dance floor
We take a step back, to perceive the situation and we take step forward in order to create one.

Chorus
Hey yo. Baton down the dance floor me buckos for I be comin through
hey yo. Scrub the deck clean for me gangway for I be comin through.

Me me me and and bottle of b. There be groves to be stepping on. Plank walking diving in. To assist the nodman for he and I are kin. Man the decks and blast out to my drunken moves, move the furniture to the other side of the room thanks
I prefer this side for the box dance. Watch the monster lurch like a professional

for the grand foray we take to the dance floor . But wait, I'm finished with the breakdown, got to triple up on the breakdown. So you claw your hands an raise your shoulders high for the lurch the box dance.

Got to triple up double up

And now for the grand foray we take to the dance floor in a big hurry and now. (There be grooves to be steppin' on)

Chorus
Hey yo. Baton down the dance floor me buckos for I be comin through
hey yo. Scrub the deck clean for me gangway for I be comin through.

Got to step up on the break down. Pre-sent my presence on the breakdown
But wait, I'm finished with the breakdown, got to triple up on the breakdown. So you claw your hands an raise your shoulders high for the lurch the box dance.

So you claw your hands an raise your shoulders high for the lurch the box dance
And now for the grand foray, we take to the dance floor in a big hurry.

Chorus
Hey yo. Baton down the dance floor me buckos for I be comin through
hey yo. Scrub the deck clean for me gangway for I be comin through.

You've got to step up cause it's your turn jump up and down to the bass drum
jump up and down till your legs burn
relax and Let me let your head spin
shiver me tonsils tongue and lips that grin full of gold.
Booty plunderin swashbuckling never gets old.
Slur your words have them re-told by your shoulder bird
You've got to double up 'cause it's your turn
Got to triple up double up

You've got to double up 'cause it's your turn
Got to step up on the break down. Pre-sent my presence on the breakdown
Step back! Uh
