Oh-oh-oh-oh (x4)

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening, but they fought with expert timing

There were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were trapping them up, they were trapping them down
It's an ancient Chinese art, and everybody knew their part
For my friend, ain't you a slip, then I'm kickin' from the hip

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening, but they fought with expert timing

There was funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chong
He said, here comes the big boss, let's get it on
He took the bow and made a stand, started swaying with the hand
A sudden motion made me skip, now we're into a brandnew trip

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening, but they did it with expert timing

Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening, make sure you have expert timing

Kung Fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning...
