1.Karate

It's a dance called Karate
It's putting all the other dances down
(Putting em down, putting em down)
(Putting em down)

(Dig this sound)
To what is the hottest dance around
(Can I do it)

Shoot your right hand out
And bring it back again
Kick your left leg out
And let your knee bend

Shake your leg, baby,
Let your left leg take the lead
Bend your knee forward
And resume your natural speed

(Dig this dance)
Flip on your dancing pants
(Can I do it)

Now let me tell you, baby
How this new dance came about
(Came about, came about)
(Came about)

We had one crazy party
To put all the fighting juveniles out
(Putting em out, putting em out)
(Putting em out)

(Digging round)
To what is the thing that pulled em down
(Can I do it)

Karate, ooh, karate, ooh
Karate, ooh, karate, ooh

(Dig this sound)
To what is the hottest thing around
(Can I do it)

Shoot your right hand out
And bring it back again
Kick your left leg out
And let your knee bend

Shake your leg, baby,
Let your left leg take the lead
Bend your knee forward
And resume your natural speed

(Dig this dance)
Flip on your dancing pants
(Can I do it)

Karate, karate
Karate, karate...
