    Lyrics:
    Crack that whip
    Give the past the slip
    Step on a crack
    Break your momma's back
    When a problem comes along
    You must whip it
    Before the cream sits out too long
    You must whip it
    When something's going wrong
    You must whip it
    Now whip it
    Into shape
    Shape it up
    Get straight
    Go forward
    Move ahead
    Try to detect it
    It's not too late
    To whip it
    Whip it good
    When a good time turns around
    You must whip it
    You will never live it down
    Unless you whip it
    No one gets away
    Until they whip it
    I say whip it
    Whip it good
    I say whip it
    Whip it good
    Crack that whip
    Give the past the slip
    Step on a crack
    Break your momma's back
    When a problem comes along
    You must whip it
    Before the cream sits out too long
    You must whip it
    When something's going wrong
    You must whip it
    Now whip it
    Into shape
    Shape it up
    Get straight
    Go forward
    Move ahead
    Try to detect it
    It's not too late
    To whip it
    Into shape
    Shape it up
    Get straight
    Go forward
    Move ahead
    Try to detect it
    It's not too late
    To whip it
    Whip it good

      As a fellow 90s kid, Rugrats, Crash Bandicoot and Pee-Wee’d playhouse all had a far bigger impact on me (plus, they actually could be experienced in the decade in question.) It was thanks to my mom always pointing out the band’s music and connecting them to those things that I eventually became a massive fan.

    Fun Fact: The lead singer, Mark Mothersbaugh, made the theme songs for the Nickelodeon show, Rugrats, and composed music for the show's episodes as well, and he composed the Clifford The Big Red Dog theme song around 2000 with another singer singing the theme song. This guy went from being an 80's singer, to a show composer like Danny Elfman did on him in Oingo Boingo band in the 80's, and wound up making The Simpsons theme song and film composer! Cool how some less known people in one era became well known later on in their lives!

      The late 1960's through to the end of the 1980s was when bands actually understood music. The beats had to be created from scratch. You only have to watch Pink Floyd's Echoes Live at Pompei to see how advanced the music skills were back then. It really not a matter of how good or bad the song is, the real proof is that it is still enjoyed over 30 years later. I am wonder what 2023 song will still be listened to and appreciated in 2056.

    I was a kid when this and David Byrnes big suite used to confuse the hell out of me (but there was something appealing to it also). Still love Devo and Talking Heads. I guess that's how you do proper subversion :)
