Alright stop what ya' doin', 'cause I'm about to ruin,
The image and the style that ya' used to.
I look funny, but yo I'm makin' money, see,
So yo' world I hope you're ready for me.
I've gotten around, I'm the new fool in town,
And my sound's laid down by the Underground.
I eat up all the [henesy?] ya' got on your shelf,
So just let me introduce myself.
My name is Humty, pronounced with an "umty",
And yo ladies, oh how I like to pump thee.
And all the rapper in the top ten,
Please allow me to bump thee.
I'm steppin' tall, y'all, and just like Humty Dumpty,
Ya' gonna fall when the stereos pump me.
I like to rhyme, I like my beats funky,
I'm spunky, I like my oatmeal lumpy.
I'm sick with this, straight gangsta mac,
But sometimes I get ridiculous,
I'll eat up all your crackers and your locorice.
Hey yo fat girl, come here, are you ticklish?
Yeah, I called ya fat, look at me, I'm skinny,
But that don't stop me from gettin' busy.
I'm a freak, I like the girls with a boom,
I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom.
I'm crazy, allow me to amaze thee,
They say I'm ugly but it just don't phase me.
I'm still gettin' in the girls pants
And I even got my own dance.....

<chorus>
The humpty dance here's yo chance, to do the Hump
Hump to me baby (a do the Humpty Hump, a do the Humpty Hump)
Hump, hump to me baby (a do the Humpty Hump, a do the Humpty Hump)
Hump to me baby (a do the Humpty Hump, a do the Humpty Hump)
Hump to me baby (a do the Humpty Hump, a do the Humpty Hump)

People say yo Humpty, ya really funny lookin'.
That's a'ight 'cause I keep things cookin'.
Ya stare, ya glare, you constantly try to compare me,
But ya can't get near me.
I'm giving more, see, and on the floor, B,
All the girls they adore me.
Oh yes ladies, I'm really bein' sincere,
Cause in that 69 my Humpty Nose'll tickle your rear.
My nose is big, uh-uh I'm not ashamed,
Big like a pickle, I'm still gettin' paid.
I get laid by the ladies, ya know I'm in charge.
Faux pas livin' and my nose is large.
I get stupid, shoot an arrow like Cupid,
I use a word that don't mean nothin', like "lupid".
I sing only what you like, and if you missed it,
I'm the one that said "just grab 'em in the biscuits".
Also told ya that I like to bite,
Well yeah I guess it's obvious, I also like to write.
All ya gotta do is give Humpty a chance,
And now I'm gonna do my dance.... <chorus>

<da break>
Ah, yeah, let's do a little breakdown,
Let me get some of the bass groove right here
<bass line>
Ah, yeah, now that I told you a little some'in about myself,
Let me tell ya a little some'in about this dance.
It's real easy to do, check it out:

First I limp to the side, like my leg is broken,
Shakin' and twitchin' kinda like I was smokin'.
Crazy, whack, funky,
People say "you look like MC Hammer on crack, Humpty".
That's a'ight 'cause my body's in motion,
It's s'pposed to look like, a [figure in conjunction?].
Anyone can play this game,
This is my dance y'all, Humpty Hump's the name.
No two people will do it the same,
You got it down, when you appear to be in pain.
Humpin', funkin', jumpin',
Jiggle 'round, shakin' your rump.
And when a doodle chump punk [wants to fling ya' like a stump?],
Tell 'em "step off, I'm doin' the Hump".

<chorus, crazy chorus>

[] means I'm not sure about the exact words, but it sounds like whatever's there. Glad to be of help.
