Lyrics[]
One way or another, I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meet ya, meet ya, meet ya, meet ya
One day, maybe real soon, I'm gonna meet ya
I'm gonna meet ya, I'll meet ya!
And when the sun has gone down
We'll fly our broomsticks downtown
To spy who's around
Sistahs!
One way or another, we're gonna find ya
We're gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another we're gonna grab ya!
(I'll nab ya), I'll jab ya
One way or another we're gonna snatch ya
I'm gonna catch ya! dispatch ya!
One day, (maybe next week),
Wе're gonna grip ya
And then I'll trip ya, I'll whip ya
Now lead us Salеm!
Lead us to that Mayor!
And like a hawk in the night
(Shoopa-shoopa, shoopa-shoopa)
(Shoo-shoo-boom, shakadula, shaka)
We'll scoop you up for a flight
(Shoopa-shoopa, shoopa-shoopa)
(Shoo-shoo-boom, shakadula, shaka)
And we'll take a bite
(We'll take a, we'll take a bite!)
1, 2, 3, 4!
Ah, say into pi, alpha maybe upendi
(Ah, say into pi, alpha maybe upendi!)
In comma-coriyama
(In comma-coriyama)
Hey!, (hey!)
High!, (high!)
Come on maybe upendi!
We're gonna chew ya
And even witches' brew ya
We're acting cruel ya'll
And oopa-doopa-doo ya
We're gonna slay ya
And probably filet ya
It might upset ya
But we'll get ya,
Get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another, we're gonna find ya
We're gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya
One way or another, we're gonna trick ya
I'm gonna stick ya, (I'll kick ya)
One way, one way or another, we're gonna meet ya
Yeah, we're gonna cheat ya, beat ya, then defeat ya
One day, oh, maybe right now, no more debatin'
It's aggravating, satan's, waitin', stayin'
One way or another!
Haha-haha-ha!
