Lyrics[]
Monday morning and we're getting started - it's on, you know
And we wanna see you whip and shout it - we rock, you roll
They say, "go slow"
And everything just stands so still
We say, "go go!"
You're gonna see us rip into it
Just jump up, kick back, whip around and spin
(And then we jump back, do it again)
Ninja, Go! Ninja, Go!
Come on, come on and do the Weekend Whip
Wednesday mornin' and we soon discover
We gotta push our game
We slept through Thursday just to get it over
The whip's a day away
They say, "go slow"
And everything just stands so still
We say, "go go!"
You're gonna see us rip into it, just
(Rip into it, just)
Jump up, kick back. whip around and spin
And then we jump back, do it again
Ninja, Go! Ninja, Go!
Come on, come on, we're gonna do it again
We just jump up, kick back, whip around and spin
And then we jump back, do it again
Ninja, Go! Ninja, Go!
Come on, come on and do the Weekend Whip
What shall we do with the pirates, ninja?
What shall we do with the pirates?
What shall we do with the pirates, ninja?
What shall we do?
What shall we do with the pirates, ninja?
What shall we do with the pirates?
What shall we do with the pirates, ninja?
What shall we do? What shall we do?
Jump up, kick back, whip around and spin
And then we jump back, do it again
Ninja, Go! Ninja, Go!
Come on, come on, we're gonna do it again
We just jump up, kick back, whip around and spin
And then we jump back, do it again
Ninja! Ninja!
Jump up, kick back, whip around and spin!
Oh way oh way oh, oh oh oh oh oh
