comment. The lyrics are quite funny and stick to music. No "psychological romance" on this piece, but a pleasure to punctuate the words clearly. Everything for the dance ... Do your dance, do you dance quick mama oh!

Below is the clip taken from track Cameo Gun, Melanie G, Korn, The Boss Hogg and VSU Horsepower. Finally a little surprise to discover the best of Cameo!
