House of Pain - Jump Around Lyrical Translation

I am a huge fan of Everlast, and a huge fan of House of Pain.  Therefore i bring to you, my lyrical translation for "Jump Around" by House of Pain


Pack it up, pack it in
Let me begin
(Please, shut up, i am about to speak)

I came to win
Battle me that's a sin
(As a natural born winner, fisticuffs are unnecessary as i am superior)

I won't tear the sack up
Punk you'd better back up
(You better not come any closer, however if you do, I'm not one to stoop so low, as to hit you in the privates)

Try and play the role and the whole crew will act up
(My crew practices Shakespeare on a daily basis)

Get up, stand up, come on!
Come on, throw your hands up
(Rise and wave as i bring forth this important message)

If you've got the feeling jump across the ceiling
(If you've had you're feel of liquor, and believe you are a super hero, try doing this crazy trick.)

Mugs is a funk fest, someone's talking junk
(My DJ, DJ Mugs, was simply spinning records on his turn table, and a man began to heckle him for no reason)

Yo, I'll bust em in the eye
And then I'll take the punks home
(Not only will i assault you, after i do, I'm moving into your spare bedroom)

Feel it, funk it
Amps in the trunk
(That amazing thing in which you feel, is from an amplifier i have mounted in the trunk of my car)

And I got more rhymes than there's cops at a "Dunkin Donuts" shop
(If you took my entire catalog of cleverly worded metaphors, better known as "Raps" or "Rhymes" you would see i have quite the back stock)

Sure enough I got props from the kids on the Hill
Plus my mom and my pops
(My mom and dad love me.  But perhaps the most important thing, is even congress thinks that i am spectacular)


[Chorus:]
I came to get down [2x]
So get out your seats and jump around
Jump around [3x]
Jump up, jump up and get down.
Jump [18x]

(Listen, good people of America, we have noticed a continuing trend of obesity, so all we ask, is that you move just a bit in order to maintain proper health)
