Like technology
We're teachers of the funk
We're the renegades of funk
Their secret notions
Of this time and age
Renegades of this atomic age
Yeah, poppin', sockin', rockin'
You know we're poppin', sockin', rockin'
With the bass and the treble
Like God's creation
(Dance sucker)
There ain't no stoppin'
So many renegades, what's that
Just jam sucker
(Move sucker)
Because where we're goin'
Now move, sucker
We're the renegades of funk
Was a renegade, yes, a renegade of the atomic age
Like militants
With their own philosophies
Because where we're goin'
This atomic age for renegades
Cars continue to change
They were renegades
We are the force of another creation
And time is a endless motion
To help the others listen
You can't stop this now
Mr. Biggs, he's a renegade of funk
Say groove, sucker
We're the renegades of funk
Now move, sucker
To get down on the 'Bay sound'
Was something called the 'Bay Street beat
That makes me swing
With the moderate time
Because where we're goin'
Renegades of this atomic age
Because where we're goin'
Hand clap, now hand clap
We're the renegades of funk
You have to keep up in time
(Jam sucker)
You know everytime we pop into the beat
Like Afrika Bambattaa
Like down in sand
We're the renegades of funk
We're talking about Mr. B, Pow Wow, G L O B E
There ain't no stoppin'
And not of empty popping
Like to the nation
On down through the middle ages
There is really no way
We're the renegades of funk
(Because where we're goin'
With a side of hip-hop
With a side of hip-hop
Pow Wow, he's a renegade of funk
(With a side of hip-hop)
Everyday people
With a side of hip-hop
Nothing stays the same
We're the renegades of funk
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Payne
Ah, yes I know
Who's that, now hand clap
People would gather from all around
With a side of hip-hop
With a side of hip-hop
There were always renegades
When the earth kept going through changes
(Jam sucker)
With a side of hip-hop
Everybody say, we're the renegades of funk
There is no stoppin'
There ain't no stoppin'
Here in this twentieth century
Say dance, sucker
This atomic age for renegades
With a side of hip-hop
He's a renegade of funk
Shake that thing
And the sight of electronics
No matter how hard you try
Poppin', sockin', rockin'
You know they have
Like Zulu's nation
Poppin', sockin', rockin'
Like astrology
We're the renegades of funk
We're blessed with the force
From a different solar system
With a side of hip-hop
Like destroy all nations
And the days of ancient Greece
Seek the electronic chance
We're the renegades of funk
Say dance, sucker
We're the renegades of funk
Prehistoric ages
Improve momentum and
The horns and our vocals
And we're on this musical message
Bambaataa, he's a renegade of funk
Oh renegade, yes a renegade
Say jam sucker
The renegades
(Groove sucker)
(There ain't no stoppin')
They change the course of history
(Dance sucker)
I got some great
Nothing stays the same
(Groove sucker)
The renegades
So many renegades
Many many galaxies away
We're the renegades of funk
And the Soulsonic Force
There's a business going on
So many renegades
With a side of hip-hop
You had to be a renegade those days
We're the renegades of funk
Poppin', sockin', rockin'
Poppin', sockin', rockin'
A new musical revelation
Oh, renegades
Now renegades are the people
Yes we're poppin', sockin', rockin'
Like through changes
To take a man on the dance floor
Like you and me
We get fresh
Because where we're goin'
All people of the moderate ages
There was a time when our music
Oh yeah, yes we're poppin', sockin', rockin'
Yes, the renegades
(Yeah, poppin', sockin', rockin')
Have a state of mind and a sense of pride
Like Martin Luther King, Malcolm X
(Move sucker)
We're the renegades of funk
Say groove, sucker
Oh yes, we're poppin', sockin' rockin'
It's a hand clap, the renegade
Of the atomic age
