M.I.A. – Steppin' Up lyrics
Steppin' up
In this club
All tooled up like a thug
Rub-a-dub-dub
Rub-a-rub-a-dub-dub

Steppin' up
In this club
All tooled up like a thug
Rub-a-dub-dub
Rub-a-rub-a-dub-dub

Steppin' up
In this club
All tooled up like a thug
Rub-a-dub-dub
Rub-a-rub-a-dub-dub

Steppin' up
In this club
All tooled up like a thug
Rub-a-dub-dub
Rub-a-rub-a-dub-dub

I light up like a genie then I blow up on this song
(Rub-a-dub-a-dub-dub ruba-duba-dub-a-dub)
Aladdin, no kidding, boy I need a rub
(Rub-a-dub-a-dub-dub ruba-duba-dub-dub)
Me and my speakers speakin' sub sub sub
(Suba-suba-sub-sub suba-suba-suba-sub)
You know who I am, I run this fucking club
(Club-a-dub-dub-dub club-a-dub-a-club-a-lub)

Bass lines and ass
Anything fast
Humpin' on my leg
Yo, mind my fuckin' glass
Making money, yes
Hide it in the bath
Sound of a bomb blast throw it in the bag

Bass lines and cars
Anything fast
Know who I am
I run this fucking club
Speakers split the sub
Throwing fire like a mob
Flash, bang thunder demolition job?

(M.I.A.) you know who I am
(M.I.A.) you know who I am

Bass lines and ass
Anything fast
Humpin' on my leg
Yo, mind my fuckin' glass
Making money, yes
Hide it in the bath
Sound of a bomb blast throw it in the bag

I can make a sound, and the shriek will make you jump (jjjjump jjjjump jjjjjump)
I can smash your feet, and the track will make you run (run run run run run run run run)
Pulled up to tee I tie up just for fun (fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun)
Get ready for the set weights by the ton (ton ton ton ton ton ton ton)

Bass lines and ass
Anything fast
Humpin' on my leg
Yo, mind my fuckin' glass
Making money, yes
Hide it in the bath
Sound of a bomb blast throw it in the bag

M.I.A.
M.I.A.
M.I.A.
M.I.A.
You know who I am
M.I.A.
You know who I am
M.I.A.

Steppin' up
