DO THE BARTMAN - 16/02/1991
3 weeks at #1 - 12 weeks on chart

Bart, Bart, BART, BART
I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove anything

Yo, Hey what's happenin' dude
I'm a guy with a rep for bein' rude
Terrorizin' people wherever I go
It's not intentional, just keepin' the flow

Fixin' test scores to get the best scores
Droppin' banana peels all over the floor
I'm the kid that made delinquency an art
Last name Simpson, first name Bart

I'm here today to introduce the next phase
The next step, in the big Bart craze
I've got a dance real easy to do
I learned it with no rythm and so can you

So move your body if you got the notion
Front to back in a rock-like motion
Now thacha got it if you think that you can
Do it to the music, that's the Bartman

Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Ah front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman
Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman

It wasn't long ago, just a couple of weeks
I got in trouble, yeah, pretty deep
Homer was yellin' (Bart) Mom was too
Because I put mothballs in the beef stew

Punishment time, in the air lurks gloom
Sittin' by myself confined to my room
When all else fails nothin' else left to do
I turn on the music so I can feel the groove

Move your body if you got the notion
Front to back in a rock-like motion
Move your hips from side to side now
Doncha slip, let your feet glide now

If you've got the groove you gotta use it
Rock-rhythm in time with the music
You just might start a chain reaction
If you can do the Bart you're bad like
Michael Jackson

Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman
Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman

Do the Bartman
Do the Bartman, Everybody back and forth
From side to side
Do the Bartman
Do the Bartman, Pick your feet up off the floor
Let 'em glide
Do the Bartman
Do the Bartman, She can do it, you can do it
So can I
Do the Bartman
Do the Bartman, Now here's a dance beat
That ya can't deny

Turn it down, will you shut that infernal racket
Do the Bartman

Oh my ears, Lisa put that saxophone away
You can't touch this
I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it
You can't prove anything

Now I'm in the house, feelin' good to be home
'till Lisa starts blowin' that damn saxophone
And if it was mine you know they'd take it away
But still I'm feelin' good so that's okay
I'm up in my room just'a singin' a song
Listenin' to the kick drum kickin' along
Yeah Lisa likes jazz she's her number one fan
But I know I'm bad 'cause I do the Bartman

Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman

Do the Bartman
Do the Bartman, Everybody back and forth
From side to side
Do the Bartman
Do the Bartman, She can do it, you can do it
So can I

Move your body if you got the notion
Front to back in a rock-like motion
Move your hips from side to side now
Doncha slip, let your feet glide now

If you've got the groove you gotta use it
Rock-rhythm in time with the music
You just might start a chain reaction

Do the Bartman
Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman
Everybody if you can do the Bartman
Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man
Front to back to the side yes you can, can
Everybody in the house do the Bartman

Move your body if you got the notion
Front to back in a rock-like motion
Move your hips from side to side now
Doncha slip, let your feet glide now

If you've got the groove you gotta use it
Rock-rhythm in time with the music
You just might start a chain reaction
Everybody in the house do the Bartman
Do the Bartman

Oh wow, man

Which u prefer?

Bartman!

hey someone likes it!


I love me the remix on the cd single.....

I vote for "The Urkel!"

I'd be 2 embarrassed 2 bump "Do The Bartman" more than once in a car..so I would choose "Batdance" which still sounds fresh 2day

No, I can't. I can't choose. It's just simply impossible.

I love both of them in their own ways!

Thunderbird said:

LOL! I remember that.

"Batdance" wins hands down. "Bartman" was one of the most rediculous things I've ever heard.

I love both. But I just heard the cd remix by Byran loren (he did obscure hit "wait for me" by Stayce and Kimiko) and the remix just makes me wanna do the running man.....it is more uptempo then the original.

Those MJ backing vox r gorgeous too.....

"Who are you?!"



The "Batdance."

Re: Byran Loren.... I liked "Lollypop Love." And "Stacye and Kimiko.... OMG! Whatever happened to them!

in what universe was "do the bartman" a #1 hit for three weeks?

If a man is considered guilty for what goes on in his mind
then give me the electric chair for all my future crimes




It's not even a close race...

I remember it at least getting top 5 in USA. Even the naff follow up single did alright.

Song is good.
