Step It Up Lyrics

To the left to the right
Step it up, step it up it's alright
To the left and to the right
Check the new ride out it's alright

Silence ain't in season
'Cause there ain't no good in grief
Can't stop my mouth form breathin'
Or seein' what I see

Curves with destinations
Poetic symmetry
Ya 'cause an inflammation
In my anatomy, don't you see, oh

Yeah yeah yeah, you can't send a forget-me-not
Yeah yeah yeah, but I'll still reach up to the top
Yeah yeah yeah, until the last day that I drop
Yeah yeah yeah, this is something you can't stop

From infancy I grown
The message that I'm givin'
You don't have to be alone, no you don't
Cos days may come and go come and go

You'll see no sight or sound
But when your mind is willing
You'll find that I'll be around
Hear me sayin', hear me sayin'

Yeah yeah yeah, you can't send a forget-me-not
Yeah yeah yeah, but I'll still reach up to the top
Yeah yeah yeah, until the last day that I drop
Yeah yeah yeah

To the left to the right
Keep it goin' keep it goin' it's alright
To the left and to the right
Step it up, step it up it's alright

We want flesh
We want flesh
We want flesh
Ah, ah, ah

All you gotta do is bounce it
To see just what goes where
There ain't no way around it
So I have come well prepared don't you know

I'm in you form the outset
Hip to hip and dome to dome
We reach the outer limits
Bring the boogie boogie home back home

Yeah yeah yeah, you can't send a forget-me-not
Yeah yeah yeah, but I'll still reach out to the top
Yeah yeah yeah, we're goin' right around the clock
Yeah yeah yeah

To the left and to the right
Step it up, step it up it's alright
To the left and to the right
Check the new ride out it's alright

See how we are livin'
See how we are livin'
See how we are livin'
You'll hear me sayin'

Yeah yeah yeah, you can't send a forget-me-not
Yeah yeah yeah, but I'll still reach up to the top
Yeah yeah yeah, until the last day that I drop
Yeah yeah yeah, this is something you can't stop

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

To the left, to the right
Keep it goin' keep it goin' it's alright
To the left and to the right
Step it up, step it up it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

Stereo MCs are a hip hop and alternative dance group formed in 1985 in London, England. The group consists of Rob Birch (vocals), Nick "The Head" Hallam (turntables, production), and Ian "Owen If" Rossiter (drums). They are best known for their 1992 single "Connected", which was a transatlantic top 20 hit.

Vocalist Rob Birch and DJ)/producer Nick Hallam founded their Gee Street recording studio and record label with money they were given to leave their London flat and, dispensing with using a backing band, travelled to early gigs on public transport.

They recorded their debut album, 33-45-78 in 1989 on a shoestring budget, with DJ Cesare, drummer Owen If and backing vocalist Cath Coffey. In 1990, "Elevate My Mind" became first British hip hop single to reach the United States R&B record chart. However, in the emerging UK alternative dance scene, it took an alliance with the Jungle Brothers to ensure chart success for Supernatural. Remix work for U2, PM Dawn, Queen Latifah, The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, Monie Love and Electronic followed.

Their live band included singers Andrea Bedassie and Verona Davis, and they were one of the few hip hop acts to play at rock music festivals at the time. Stereo MCs' mainstream breakthrough came in 1992 with the album Connected, which contained the hit singles "Connected", "Step It Up", "Creation", and "Ground Level", and also won them the BRIT Awards for Best Group and Best Album.

The follow-up to Connected did not appear for almost a decade. Further remix duties for Madonna and the Jungle Brothers in 1998 kept the Stereo MCs' name in the limelight. Madonna went on to use the Stereo MCs remix of "Frozen" as the basis of the live arrangement of the song on her 2001 Drowned World Tour.

2001 saw the release of Deep Down & Dirty, followed by a tour including slots opening for the recently re-united Jane's Addiction. Their sixth studio album, Double Bubble, was released in July 2008, followed by their seventh album, Emperor's Nightingale, in August 2011. Read more on Last.fm.
