30 & Up, 1986 - Sho Baraka, Courtney Orlando, Amisho Baraka Lewis

I mean you can’t be stupid your whole life

You gotta grow up eventually

DJ play this song, play this song, DJ, maybe we could change the world

DJ play this song, play this song, DJ, maybe we could change the world

Excuse me um I’m going to make it through the crowd bruh

I’m just trying to dance with nostalgia

Classy and charming and beautifully dressed

Of course I’m looking fresh in my fedora and vest

If looks could kill she about to do damage

Better take a pic make it quick Instagram it

Too old for skinny jeans too young for linens

Got a young man’s fresh with an old man’s wisdom

A diamond leader respect it up on the block

You got your band two knocks twist curls and locks

Imma act cool, Eddie Murphy Boomerang

You the flavor Halle Berry, (mmm) Sweet Thing

We can be more I can still be your king

You a Tracee Ellis Ross Queen child of The Supreme

I’m talking about love they’re talking about lust

They don’t want to grow up but we 30 and up!

Talk that talk you better walk that walk

Girl you know we got to work to stay in love

When I’m feeling high when I’m feeling low

You change my world with every touch

All I know is that you’re 30 and up

Keep moving you got my heart and got my soul don’t stop because you’re 30 and up

Keep moving you got my heart and got my soul don’t stop because you’re 30 and up

Yo DJ What happened to the love song?

Hey you take requests?

They say that real love is gone

You a lie tell him that we got it

There’s no limit to our love tell him that we Bout It (Uhhh!!)

Haters can’t touch this we Too Legit to Quit all we need is some Hammer pants

and an s-curl kit

Some will celebrate someone want you to struggle

Don’t get bent out of shape but just keep those Squares Out Your Circle

We too mature to be acting like teenagers

Acting like I’m fake to impress these strangers somebody must have found the

Fountain of Youth.

Bottled it up and didn’t give that bottle to you!

We stay dating with no expiration put the kids to sleep and have adult

conversations

Far from drunk but what’s in my cup is only for the heads in the room that’s 30

and up

Talk that talk you better walk that walk

Girl you know we got to work to stay in love

When I’m feeling high when I’m feeling low

You change my world with every touch

All I know is tonight if you’re ready to have a good time and leave your kids

at home let me hear you say yeah.

Say yeah

Yeah and if you’re all grown-up, too fly show nothing but love

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah

DJ play this song, play this song, DJ, maybe we can change the world

DJ play this song, play this song, DJ, maybe we can change the world

Yeah.

Go back in time and tell the young me

Don’t rush through life, move slowly

Don’t be a player, trying to collect trophies

Don’t break hearts, you just end up lonely!
