Lyrics[]
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
Have you heard about the new dance craze?
Listen to us, I'm sure you'll be amazed
Big fun to be had by everyone
It's up to you, it surely can be done
Young and old are doing it, I'm told
Just one try and you too will be sold
It's called "Le Freak", they're doing it night and day
Allow us, we'll show you the way
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
All that pressure got you down
Has your head been spinning all around?
Feel the rhythm, check the rhyme
Come on along and have a real good time
Like the days of Stomping at the Savoy
Now we "freak", oh, what a joy
Just come on down to the 54
Find your spot out on the floor
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
Now freak
I said freak
Now freak
All that pressure got you down
Has your head been spinning all around?
Feel the rhythm, check the rhyme
Come on along and have a real good time
Like the days of Stomping at the Savoy
Now we "freak", oh, what a joy
Just come on down to the 54
Find your spot out on the floor
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
Ah, freak out!
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out!
Aw, freak out
Le freak, c'est Chic
Freak out
Le freak, c'est Chic
Aw...
Here I am, gonna stand my ground
Nothin' in the world's gonna bring me down
Hear me yell and hear me roar
I am somethin' that you can't ignore
I am here for all of us
I am fierce and we're all fabulous
Aw... Freak out (whoo...)
So fabulous
So fierce
Freak out
So beautiful (so beautiful)
So freaky
Freak out
So fabulous (so fabulous)
So fierce
Freak out (so freaky)
Le freak, c'est Chic
Here I am, so you'd better beware
Gonna getcha, catcha
Run for cover 'cause I'm like no other
Gonna getcha, catcha
Here I am, so you'd better beware
Gonna getcha, catcha
Run for cover 'cause I'm like no other
Gonna getcha, catcha
I'm an original, baby!
No carbon copies or fake furs for me!
No way!
Aw, freak out
So fabulous (I'm fabulous)
So fierce
Freak out
So beautiful (I'm beautiful)
So freaky
Freak out
So fabulous (so fabulous)
So fierce
Freak out
So beautiful (no one's like me)
So freaky
