I Like to Move it, Move it!

"I Like To Move It" is a 1994 song performed by Reel 2 Real (Erick Morillo), featuring The Mad Stuntman.
The Madagascar Franchise prominently features the song in many ways, a cover is performed by Sacha Baron Cohen for the soundtrack of the first Madagascar film. Will.i.am performs a cover for the soundtrack of the second film with lyrics different to that the original version, In the third film, the song is mashed with "Afro Circus" during the finale and credits, Afro Circus/I Like To Move It features Danny Jacobs singing the "I Like to Move It" part on the soundtrack, while Sacha Baron Cohen sings it in the film and on the film's score. Afro Circus/I Like to Move It also can be heard in The Penguins of Madagascar film at the beginning, to express how annoyed the penguins are at being in the circus. The original Reel 2 Real version can be heard in the first and final episode of All Hail King Julien. In Sonic World Blast, the first Blue Sky feature film to be live-action, a cover by Bella Ramsey, the voice of Hilda is heard in the end credits.

Okay then…
While you're here, I just wanna tell you a little story
This long story I think my daddy used to tell me, he was the king as well
I was born, probably about...
68 years ago, over by that tree over there, yeah
And I remember things changed a lot
In those days, In Madagascar it wasn't so commercial, you know
It wasn't all about money and who's got the latest tree,
and what leaves are you wearing
And who's got the latest fur on their back, you know
Those day it was just me and a couple of the others, you know
Doing the jungle boogie, you know
Jungle boogie! Jungle boogie!
WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH!
MOVE IT!
You really think this is never gonna end? 'Cuz it is.

Pump up the volume, speaker blastin'
Shake up the ground, shake up the ground
Shake like a earthquake, quake up the ground
Play to make a sound, play to make a sound

So I can do my little dance, do my little dance
Do my little, do my little, do my little dance
Ants in my pants, got ants in my pants
Ants in my, ants in my, ants in my pants

Okay then…
While you're here, I just wanna tell you a little story
This long story I think Tim used to tell me, every night at bedtime
Back when I was with Harry, that was a long time ago
A clone of the legendary Pokemon Mew was made
It was called Mewtwo, he went crazy
He broke out of the lab and tried to ruin the parade with that R stuff
But Tim and I fought back and now Ryme City is safe and I'm singing this song and...
Those days it was just me and a couple of the others, you know
Doing the jungle boogie, you know
Jungle boogie! Jungle boogie!
WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH!
MOVE IT!
You really think this is never gonna end? 'Cuz it is.
